781 E Morningside Drive

Description

Morningside is a neighborhood full of beautiful homes but it is hard to put into words just how truly impressive this one is. Dont let the modest Tudor-styled exterior fool you as this home has been professionally designed and updated to the most discerning standards. Luxury is truly in the details and no detail has been overlooked in this 6BR + 5.5BA residence. The 5,765 square feet of professionally designed interiors exude sophistication. Scalamandre wall coverings and Farrow + Ball lacquered paint drench the Formal Dining Room in rich color. A dramatic Cole + Son cork coffered ceiling elevates the formal Living Room. Solid brass details abound including new Emtek door hardware, custom curtain rods and even magnetic door stops throughout. Here luxury and comfort converge in a seamless blend of classic charm and modern sophistication. It begins with your arrival into your gated driveway. With over .61 acres, enjoy private access to one of the largest lots in Morningside. Park in either the 2-car covered carport or your oversized 2-car garage with not just one, but two high-powered EV charging stations. The fully-fenced and professionally landscaped yard features all-new hardscaping, retaining walls, landscape lighting and meandering flagstone pathways. Even the vehicle gate has been overhauled with new MyQ Smart Gate technology for the ultimate in convenience. A massive wood arched front door welcomes you into the Foyer and the dramatic two-story stair lobby draws you in. The aforementioned Formal Living and Dining Rooms leave nothing to be desired while a massive set of double pocket doors offer maximum privacy from the more relaxed spaces in the home. The Kitchen is a chef's delight with a professional-grade 8-burner gas range taking center stage, accompanied by a suite of high-end stainless-steel appliances for all your culinary needs. Tumbled Marble backsplash and stone countertops harmoniously blend style and functionality, while classic white cabinetry and a massive walk-in pantry is concealed behind a hidden door. A jaw-dropping bar/butlers pantry has been completely modernized with a dramatic arched ceiling connecting it to the Formal Dining Room. Soaring 12 coffered ceilings create an airy atmosphere combined with recessed lighting and refinished hardwoods to unite the Kitchen, Family Room and more casual Dining areas. Massive French doors open to the covered Lanai featuring a vaulted ceiling and anchored by an iconic wood burning fireplace. Also on the main level is one of two Owners Suites serving as the ultimate sanctuary with its 12ft ceilings, electric window treatments, dual walk-in closets with custom cabinetry, and en-suite bathroom with dual vanities and private water closet. Downstairs the Terrace Level features an in-law suite fully-equipped with a kitchen and brand new spa-like bathroom featuring a zero-threshold shower with exquisite Herringbone marble flooring presenting a true income-producing opportunity. Another separate bedroom and flex space complete the lower level. Ascend upstairs and you will find the second oversized Owners Suite and private bath with dual vanities, soaking tub shower and massive closet. Two additional en-suite bedrooms, a loft and laundry room complete the upper level. The current homeowners embarked upon a comprehensive 2-year transformation of the home starting with many things that are not visible like an all-new roof, new surge protection system, new Leviton smart switches throughout, new sprinkler system, new electrical panels, new recirculating pumps and even a whole home water filtration + reverse osmosis system. And for the ultimate in convenience new laundry rooms have been added on every floor. An unparalleled Intown location awaits within a mere 3 blocks to Piedmont Park, Morningside Elementary, The Beltline, and an array of popular dining and shopping destinations. Experiencing this home in person is truly an elevation of the senses.
