Buyers, make the offer you think might offend. Sellers weren't complaining when offers were coming in $100K over asking a few years ago, and today's market gives buyers an opportunity to negotiate. Welcome to Paintbox, where the homes are bold, the neighbors are friendly, and your personality actually fits in. Built in 2021, this three-story townhome offers two bedrooms and two full bathrooms with a bright, open-concept layout and a tandem two-car garage with serious storage space. The spacious first-floor foyer makes coming, going, and dog walking easy, while the oversized tandem garage offers more possibilities than simply parking two cars. The rear garage bay with windows offers the potential to be converted into a third bedroom and bathroom, similar to the floor plans found in Paintbox homes along Memorial Drive. The difference?

The landscaped central courtyard is designed for connection and casual porch parties with neighbors. A spacious foyer makes dog walking and daily life easy before heading upstairs to the bright white kitchen featuring an oversized island, huge pantry, and clear sightlines into the open living space. Just off the living area, the covered porch with a mounted TV is ready for morning coffee, game days, or happy hour. Upstairs you'll find a secondary ensuite bedroom and full bath, a convenient hallway washer and dryer closet, and a primary suite that truly delivers with a wall-to-wall double vanity, ample storage, standing shower, oversized bedroom, and wall-to-wall walk-in closet.

Built in 1956 and solid four-sided brick, this Decatur ranch has the quality of its era with the updates you want today. Refinished white oak floors run throughout, the kitchen pairs newer cabinetry with stainless appliances, and the major systems have already been handled: all original windows replaced with double-hung vinyl (2024), new front and patio doors (2025), a new 50-gallon water heater (2024), a new dishwasher and disposal (2025), and a roof replaced in 2016 (30-year roof) with repairs completed in 2026. Move-in ready in the truest sense - nothing left on the list. The layout offers a primary bedroom with a half bath, plus two additional bedrooms sharing a full bath. A full unfinished basement delivers the kind of storage that keeps the living space uncluttered (outdoor access only - can easily be converted to a usable space). Light is the quiet luxury here: the back of the home faces east, so morning sun filters through the trees and pours in through the large picture window, and evening light comes through the kitchen and front windows. Out back, a generous private patio overlooks an expansive, beautifully landscaped yard - mature, layered, and lovely in every season, with brilliant fall foliage and an abundance of birds and wildlife spring through fall. An existing empty pond sits ready for the right owner to bring it back to life. All of this on a quiet residential street minutes from Mason Mill Park's trails, the restaurants of Emory Village and LaVista Road, and everyday essentials (Publix, Kroger, Target, Whole Foods, Home Depot, etc.), with easy access to I-285 and 85/400 for a straight shot to downtown Decatur, Buckhead, Atlanta proper, and the airport.

More photos available this Wednesday. Listing going Live this Thursday with first tour starting Friday morning. Home is priced to sell, recently appraised over $600k. This exceptional 4 bed, 2.5 bath, over 2,400 square feet, four sided brick home has one of the largest and most desirable backyards you will find in Dunwoody under $600k! From the moment you pull up, the four sided brick exterior gives the home a timeless, substantial feel, surrounded by thoughtfully maintained landscaping and a large front lawn. You enter into the foyer and immediately notice how much natural light fills the home. To the right is a large and bright living room with a huge bay window that brings in plenty of natural light. The living room opens into a separate dining room that is perfect for more formal occasions or simply dining in regularly. The dining room flows into the kitchen, where the layout was designed to keep you connected to both the people inside and everything happening outside. The kitchen features warm wood cabinetry, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, and an opening that looks directly into the living space while also giving you views out to the enormous backyard. Whether you are cooking dinner while everyone is gathered nearby or keeping an eye on everything happening in the backyard, you never feel cut off from the rest of the home. You also have an eat-in kitchen with the perfect area for a table for a casual Sunday morning breakfast. Just a few steps down is a second living space centered around a white brick fireplace, giving you another place to gather, watch a movie, or relax at the end of the day. The split level design creates separation between spaces without making the home feel disconnected, while the hardwood floors throughout the entire home tie everything together. Off of the downstairs living room sits a half bath, a large laundry room with additional storage and a generous folding area, and the massive garage with all of the extra storage you could ever dream of. Upstairs you will find all 4 bedrooms, including a spacious primary bedroom with a walk in closet and bright bathroom. You also have 3 additional large bedrooms that can serve a multitude of purposes. The updated full guest bathroom is perfectly situated in the hall with a linen closet right next to it. But as wonderful as the inside of the home is, the backyard is what truly makes this home special. Step outside onto the expansive stone patio where a large pergola creates a defined outdoor living and dining space with plenty of room for a table, grill, and seating. Beyond the patio is a massive, flat stretch of green grass surrounded by mature trees and landscaping, creating the kind of private, fenced backyard that is incredibly difficult to find in Dunwoody. There is already a full playground tucked behind the grass, while still leaving an enormous amount of open lawn for running, playing, throwing a ball, letting the dogs out, or hosting friends and family. The size and flatness of the yard also give you endless possibilities for how you could use the space in the future. The mature tree line around the perimeter creates privacy without sacrificing the large open lawn, giving you the best of both worlds. This home is perfectly located in the convenient Kingsley neighborhood, just a stone's throw from Kingsley Lake and minutes from shopping, dining, schools, parks, and everything Dunwoody has to offer. This home is priced to sell so do not wait to tour!
