It is true! You can really hear the lions roar at Zoo Atlanta from the front porch of this hilltop cutie. This newer two-story craftsman style home is in the heart of Grant Park literally overlooking the Park. Located on the elevated portion of Cherokee Avenue, high off of the street, it almost feels like you are in a tree house when on the covered front porch. This is an ideal social spot to greet new and old neighbors walking by. Step inside the foyer and you are welcomed into a happy, bright home due to all of the natural light. The vaulted ceiling in the living room adds to the expansive feeling. The wood burning fireplace anchors the living room and is flanked by two large, floor to ceiling windows. The open concept of this home invites you to explore every facet of this gem. Whether admiring the view of the park in the front of the home or enjoying the view in the back to your very own secluded patio. The living room flows into the den and then right out the French doors to the expansive and private patio. This low maintenance patio is ready for your next spring gathering. There is ample room for an intimate conversation area, grill, dining table and an open bar. Circle back around on the patio where you can enter the home through the second set of French doors into the breakfast nook. This area beckons enjoying a cup of coffee and a book on the custom-built bench seat. (And yes, there is additional storage under the bench seat.) The spacious functional kitchen has it all; cherry cabinets, granite countertops, double oven, stainless steel refrigerator, dishwasher, granite island with stainless steel prep sink and a six-burner professional Zlein gas range. Show your friends and family you care by treating them to your culinary delights in your separate dining room with custom white wainscoting. Upstairs, you will find your nighttime oasis. Both full bathrooms have been totally renovated. The primary bath has a soaking tub, separate shower with stunning glass doors and dual sink with quartz countertop vanity. The sweet spot in this bathroom is the spacious walk-in closet complete with built-in drawers. The second bathroom renovation also boasts a new shower with glass doors and a custom-built vanity. The laundry closet is in the second-floor hallway. Oh, and did we mention off street parking? Yes, there is enough room at the back for two cars. The parking pad off the alley is shared with 699 Cherokee. So, leave your car in the back and enjoy all that living in Grant Park has to offer right at your doorstep….. Zoo Atlanta, many close by restaurants, shopping at the Beacon and of course…. Close proximity to the Beltline. 695 Cherokee is just waiting for you to call it your own.
