Property Description

The quiet calm of Avondale Estates is undeniably tranquil. The neighborhood is just 20-30 minutes from the hustle and bustle of downtown Atlanta but feels a world away. The stress of work and traffic melts away as you turn onto Wiltshire Drive, a quiet street of expansive lawns, mature magnolias, and towering shortleaf pines with homes set back from the street allowing for privacy, community, and mutual respect. This is a community where people take morning walks down to Avondale Lake while admiring the azaleas in spring, roses in summer, and oakleaf hydrangeas in autumn. The homes in the neighborhood showcase a diverse array of architectural designs ranging from the mid-1920's Tudor-Revival style that the neighborhood is most well-known for, to post-war, mid-century modern, ranch, and new-builds. It's easy to forget the urban culture of boutique shops, libraries, James Beard award-winning restaurants, concert halls, and more are less than 15 minutes away.

3259 Wiltshire Drive blends effortlessly into this relaxing landscape. After driving up the concrete driveway lined with large yuccas, Spanish lavender, and blueberries, and parking in the lattice-brick carport, stepping into the house feels like entering a place of personal expansion. The original living room and dining room have been transformed by a generous addition at the rear of the home and the removal of walls into a vast, open-floor common area lightened with beautiful wide-plank pine flooring. This space feels enormous, with north-facing picture windows, classic south and east-facing French doors also frame the common area, allowing more light into this bright room. An efficiency kitchen offers a stylish amendment to the common area with floating islands ready to host company. Through the eastward French doors lies a midcentury-modern patio with a grilling station and stylishly finished with broken terracotta
tile. The southward doors open onto a spacious deck perfect for reading, birdwatching, and daydreaming due to its lofted position above the backyard. The land itself gently slopes away from the house in the back and is blanketed in thick pine straw and dotted with crepe myrtles. The backyard is bounded by a fence making it an ideal run for a dog or two, and a mature forest to the south offers privacy and opportunities for visual meditation. The front yard and carport also serve as an excellent location to host birthday parties and events that spill out from the rear of the house.

Two short staircases sporting iron railings also lead from the common area. The upward stair brings one to a hall lined with closets and a bathroom complete with a tub, and the home's personal rooms: two single bedrooms, and an owner's bedroom with a bathroom ensuite. The downward stair ushers one to a very large utility and laundry room with ample storage space, and two pine-floored rooms: a lovely office or playroom that looks out on the backyard and southern forest, and a cozy den that features a wood-burning fireplace and a cedar-lined closet perfect for winter woolens and heirloom quilts. Finally, one can exit the den to the backyard, follow a short path, and find a large workshop that would accommodate hobbies such as wood-working, pottery, sporting equipment, or gardening tools. The area right outside the workshop would be perfect for a patio or firepit.

In with the new and out with the old: New, energy efficient double-paned windows in a variety of styles, including double-hung, fixed, and casement were recently added and certainly pack a punch of value and excellent utility.

Overall, 3259 Wiltshire Drive is a home that is wonderfully adaptable providing space for relaxing, hosting barbecues, or simply finding quietude and serenity while also having space ample enough to bring folks together on holidays. Of course, Avondale Estates is a dream of a neighborhood and offers small-town vibes with convenient access to intown big-city living. Welcome home!
