1130 Kingston Drive NE

Experience the charm of this spacious, well-maintained home in a private wooded setting in the heart of north Atlanta, with quick, easy access to I-285 and Ga-400. Located inside the perimeter in Sandy Springs, it’s just half a mile away from 3 major hospitals, Perimeter Mall, shopping, restaurants, public and private schools and other amenities. Homes on Kingston Drive rarely become available on this hidden gem cul-de-sac street of just 21 homes, each with a minimum one-acre lot size. The spacious 4-bedroom, 4-bath home includes a finished walkout basement that can be customized as a secondary suite (with full kitchen), media room, exercise space or office/library. On the main floor, you’ll enjoy the step-saver kitchen with custom cabinets crafted by Savannah’s premier cabinetmaker. Chefs will also enjoy using the built-in gas grill for quick burgers or a lazy afternoon grilling on the Big Green Egg. Upstairs you’ll find 3 more large bedrooms, including the primary bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. During summer, the abundant foliage completely hides the neighbors behind you, and the generous lot size provides ample separation that everyone enjoys no matter the season. After a long day, enjoy a beverage or dine al fresco in the privacy of the 4-season sunroom or on the spacious back deck overlooking your private wooded preserve. You’ll likely see deer heading to the small creek at the back of the property through the backyard of the 1.759 acre lot as well as bluebirds raising their young in the birdhouse. The back yard is terraced with walking trails and has room for a pool. The home has a 2-car attached garage with Swiss Trax flooring, plus a detached 2-car garage with extra storage, work benches, plus room for tools, exercise equipment or other uses. In addition, there is a separate storage building at the back of the property. The current owners made many improvements and renovations but kept the original charm and character of the home. The wi-fi enabled irrigation system, security cameras and smart thermostat make the home easy to use. All the bedrooms, dining room, living room and den have beautifully refinished hardwood flooring and marble in the entrance foyer. Hardie Plank now covers the detached garage, back dormers and large outbuilding and the yard is in constant bloom with abundant roses, azaleas, canna lilies, black-eyed Susans, altheas, Japanese maple, dogwoods and Magnolias.
