Property Description

"Home is the place where, when you have to go there, they have to take you in." It's not difficult to see why Robert Frost enjoyed this California-style single-level bungalow on his annual trips to Atlanta: Agnes Scott College, where he gave rambling standing-room only lectures, is just across the street, not much farther than that to Decatur Square; perpetually quiet, oak-lined avenues that aren't much different from how they were then. Great for meandering. "Roads less traveled," and all that. Nestled on a generous "double" lot it remains as captivating today as it was in Frost's time. While Decatur has evolved, boasting exceptional K-12 public schools and a lauded culinary scene, 227 E. Hancock stands as a coveted rarity in the burgeoning Metro. Its charm lies not just in its prime location, but in the timeless appeal of the property itself. Step inside to discover a harmonious blend of original character and modern luxury. The wide-open floor plan showcases time-hewn hardwoods, latticed windows, and a striking two-sided fireplace - all effortlessly preserved. A spectacular Jones Pierce renovation has elevated the kitchen to centerpiece status, featuring a professional-grade 48-inch range and Subzero refrigerator. Three spacious bedrooms and a separate office pay homage to the home's rich history while embracing contemporary comforts. The primary bedroom boasts a California Closets-designed open plan closet, marrying function with style. Perhaps Frost sensed the unique dynamic of 227 E. Hancock - at once sprawling and cozy, grand yet subdued. It's a space where every element feels precisely placed without pretension, equally suited for extravagant evenings surrounded by friends or for quiet, candlelit nights with those closet to you. As you relax by the fire pit, wine in hand and a good book nearby, you might just feel the poetic spirit that once found inspiration within these walls. In this home, you're not just buying a property; you're becoming part of a living legacy. 227 E. Hancock Street - where history, luxury, and inspiration converge in the heart of Decatur. Your opportunity to write the next chapter awaits.
