Description

A purist's mid-century modern dream. True to its architectural roots, this home rejects the bloated footprints of modern builds, offering instead a masterclass in efficient design. From the sleek, low-profile single carport to the thoughtfully scaled baths, every square foot is optimized to focus on what matters: open-concept living, soaring ceilings, and a seamless connection to nature. With a solid granite foundation, 6 bedrooms big enough for King beds, a terraced backyard completely private from the outside world, a screened porch that stretches the entire length of the home, and a double-sided fireplace anchoring the vaulted living and...read more dining room. You pinch yourself. This is EXACTLY what youve been looking for. You start texting your agent furiously. Your heart is racing. You need to get in to see this mid-century ranch before all of Atlanta finds out. Three grey dots appear. Waiting. Waiting... And then: she can show it in 45 minutes. No time to waste. You toss your hair in a ponytail, throw on a baseball cap, and realize youve put your shoes on the wrong feet. Youve never been this excited or hopeful about a house. THIS IS THE ONE. The one they all told you didnt exist. ITP, impeccable curb appeal, on a half acre of privacy, convenient to everything. A low slung roof line, board and batten siding. Your heart is pumping in your ears. Your agent is already on the flagstone walkway, keys in hand, doing a terrible job of hiding her smile. She knows whats about to happen. In the foyer, a wall of exposed granite, vaulted ceilings, exposed beams. Above the dining table, a Gaetano Sciolari chevron chandelier, fifteen lights strong, glows like it did in 1960. Floor to ceiling picture windows frame the backyard like a painting. Red Oak hardwoods run underfoot. Original. The kitchen lives up to the hype. Modern, white glossy cabinetry, Bosch appliances from a 2016 remodel, and a window over the sink that turns dish duty into a backyard daydream. The six bedrooms are sized for actual living, King beds and all, and the baths are minimalist by design, clean lines, intentional materiality, nothing wasted. The kind of restraint that takes confidence to pull off. Downstairs the daylight basement has more exposed granite walls. Two more bedrooms, a full bath, a breakfast bar, and a kitchenette with its own interior and exterior entrance, set up perfectly for an in-law suite, a guest retreat, or an income producing apartment. Out back, the screened porch is 405 square feet of in-between space, perfect for sipping wine on summer evenings while a thunderstorm puts on a show and you stay bone dry. Past the porch, terraced stone walls hold back blooming hydrangeas. Magnolias ring the entire yard like a natural privacy fence. Deer wander through twitching their ears, so do foxes. Hawks drift overhead, and a red cardinal puts on a show. Theres even a garden bed waiting for tomatoes and basil. This house was custom built in 1959 for Jim Tysinger, a Georgia State Senator. The architects, Tomberlin-Sheetz, also designed the old First Federal Savings & Loan building downtown, on Marietta Street. You wait for the catch. The but the roof or but the HVAC that always shows up in a house this age. Except, new roof in 2020 with skylights. New electrical service in 2021. A Honeywell zone system and all new Nest thermostats. New water heater this year. A radon system installed in 2024. The unglamorous work has been done so you can just foc
