About This Property

Set beneath a canopy of century maples on one of Old South's signature streets, this 2 1/2 storey, 5-bedroom, early 20th-century residence sits on a large lot showcasing distinguished architecture, & an inviting front porch. Inside, the home is warm and beautifully proportioned. Sunlight travels easily through large updated windows, landing on original archways, plaster curves, deep baseboards, and millwork that has held its character for generations. Formal where you want it, relaxed where you need it. The kitchen is the heart of the home featuring soapstone counters, ceiling-height ivory-tone cabinetry, designer backsplash, and heated slate floors and opens naturally to the dining room and main living spaces, making the flow ideal for gatherings. Two additional windows on the north wall have been added to the unforgettable living room with a beautiful fireplace and an abundance of natural light spilling across the room and into the office/wine room. The second floor feels remarkably versatile: three generous bedrooms, a fireside family room/optional 5th bedroom, a showpiece bathroom with stained-glass windows, plus walk-out access to the rooftop terrace w/ composite decking, upgraded railings and a 10' x 12' gazebo surrounded by mature evergreens giving the space a up-scale treehouse atmosphere. The third-floor primary suite offers a quiet escape w/ vaulted ceilings, seating alcove, walk-in closet, fireplace, & a 3-piece bath. The lower level adds a 500-bottle capacity wine cellar, gym/media room, bonus rooms and direct access to the double garage. The gated drive enhances privacy and security, while the backyard is wrapped in established cedars for four-season seclusion. Parking out front leaves a huge patio space to enhance the outdoor living or use it for guest parking up to 12 cars. This is a home stewarded with care, and positioned in one of London's most admired communities. Steps to Wortley Village, parks, schools, and amenities-yet peaceful and private.
