Property Description
There is something incredibly easy about this home. An oversized picture window and original brick create a timeless facade with subtle mid-century inspired features. Thoughtfully maintained over the years, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the ease of one-level living, abundant natural light and a backyard that is a true, private sanctuary. The living room is the heart of the home, where oversized mid-century picture windows frame the front landscape and fill the space with natural light. Original hardwood floors run throughout, complementing the warmth and character. Fresh interior paint, new lighting throughout, updated kitchen hardware and extensive exterior painting and repairs give the home a refreshed feel while preserving its original charm. Oversized sliding glass doors create a seamless transition from the living space to a panoramic view of the outdoors. The backyard is everything. A beautifully custom, crafted cedar screened porch extends your living space into the landscape, offering the perfect place for morning coffee, quiet evenings, yoga or gathering with friends. Beyond the porch, a winding paver pathway leads to a charming pergola nestled beneath the mature tree canopy, creating another inviting destination to relax and enjoy the outdoors. A storage shed provides additional space for lawn equipment and gardening tools, while the newly installed privacy fence creates a secure setting for pets, gardening and everyday enjoyment. Beyond the cosmetic improvements, the major systems have also been thoughtfully maintained. The roof was replaced in 2015, HVAC in July 2022, water heater in 2024 and a new crawl space vapor barrier was completed in 2026, giving the next owner confidence in the home's care and upkeep. Situated on a quiet dead-end street, the property offers a peaceful setting with minimal through traffic. A long driveway provides ample off-street parking for family and guests, adding to the home's everyday convenience. Ideally located near Emory, the CDC, Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, Toco Hills and Decatur Square, this home offers easy access to parks, dining, shopping and major employment centers while providing the comfort and simplicity of a home that has been exceptionally well cared for. Comfortable, welcoming and move-in ready, 1571 Fama Drive is the kind of home that simply feels good the moment you walk through the door.
