Exceptional space, thoughtful updates and outstanding value come together in this beautifully appointed brick home in coveted Hampton Woods. For buyers comparing homes in East Cobb, this home offers an impressive amount of finished living space and flexibility… an increasingly rare combination in the Walton High School district. A light-filled two-story foyer opens to an inviting floor plan designed to accommodate both everyday living and effortless entertaining. Multiple living areas on the main level provide room to gather, work and unwind, while the renovated kitchen opens seamlessly to the great room and dining area. One of the home’s standout features is the beautifully designed scullery/second kitchen, adding exceptional prep space, storage and functionality when entertaining. French doors extend the living space outdoors to the deck, while an additional sunroom/family room offers yet another flexible living space. Whether you need a private home office, quiet sitting room, playroom or additional gathering space, this home offers the flexibility to evolve with the way you live, including the space to create a second primary suite on the main level for multigenerational living. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite feels like a true retreat, with a renovated bath featuring dual vanities, separate tub and shower. The secondary bedrooms are well served by two updated baths, including a spacious en-suite bath and a beautifully renovated hall bath. The finished terrace level adds another remarkable layer of living space, with multiple areas that can accommodate a media or recreation room, home gym, office, guest space and more. Step outside to the covered porch and you’ll find one of the home’s most inviting spaces… a private place to relax, entertain and enjoy the peaceful backyard setting. The large, private backyard offers plenty of space to play or add a pool. This home has many significant improvements including a renovated kitchen and scullery, beautiful hardwood flooring on the main, updated bathrooms, fresh interior paint throughout, new carpet, new terrace-level flooring and a full replacement of the home’s plumbing, allowing the new owner to simply move in and enjoy. Hampton Woods is one of East Cobb’s most sought-after swim and tennis communities, with a large community pool and Pavilion, lighted tennis and pickleball courts, a community lake and an active social calendar with a genuine neighborhood atmosphere. The home is served by award winning Mount Bethel Elementary, Dickerson Middle and Walton High School and is convenient to nature trails, Historic Roswell, Sandy Springs and major commuter routes. The value of this stunning home is compelling: substantial finished living space, multiple gathering and work-from-home areas, a renovated kitchen with separate scullery, finished terrace level, extensive updates and a premier Hampton Woods location, all at a price positioned well below recent neighborhood sales.
