About this home

You see terms like "one of a kind", "private retreat", and "easy rental income" a lot when scrolling through listings, but rarely do any of them ring true in person - let alone all of them on the same home. But that's the case at 2896 Faraday Ct. Leaving loving hands for the first time in 50 years, this sprawling two-story on three-quarters of an acre is meant for an owner who wants to wake up in a natural sanctuary without the location compromises that typically come with it. An owner who also wants the perks of passive income and/or multi-generational living between the upstairs 1 bed, 1 bath, full kitchen, laundry, and 1 living space apartment suite with separate HVAC and single private entrance, AND the lower level in-law suite with bedroom, huge living room, a sunroom, kitchen, bath, storage, and interior and exterior entry. But let's not forget the classic home itself with 3 separate and spacious living spaces, 4 bedrooms including an oversized owner's suite, traditional dining room and central kitchen, and impressive touches like the grand stone fireplace, dental molding, office off the laundry room, huge slate entrance foyer, and ample off street parking for everyone. All of this overlooking an immense and truly private backyard featuring a peaceful creek with picturesque covered bridge, entertainment deck, and a grassy field. Best of all, this personal retreat is at the center of a bustling community with the super involved and walkable Country Squire Neighborhood zoned to sought after Laurel Ridge/Druid Hills. With first priority for Pangborn Swim & Tennis, nearby pocket parks, Publix, the incoming Lulah Hills development, Emory, CDC, and so much more!
