Rare 5 Bedroom ITB Masterpiece on .69 Acres -- Better Than New, Built to Last! Inside the Beltline opportunities don't get better than this. Set on a rare 0.69-acre flat, fully fenced lot with no HOA, this immaculate showpiece delivers 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and over 4,000 square feet across three beautifully finished levels -- where timeless bones meet every top-of-the-line upgrade today's most discerning buyers demand. Soaring 11-foot ceilings greet you the moment you step inside. Warm hardwood floors, custom inset cabinetry, plantation shutters, and designer lighting create a seamless sense of elevated living throughout. The chef's kitchen is the heart of the home -- Jenn-Air appliances, a 62-inch Electrolux refrigerator/freezer, and dramatic casement and transom windows -- flowing effortlessly into the living room anchored by a custom gas fireplace with a one-of-a-kind designer surround. The vaulted dining room with designer lighting was made for entertaining, complemented by an additional flex space perfect for a sitting room, music room, or whatever your lifestyle calls for. The main level is designed for the way people truly live. The primary suite offers his and her closets and a large ensuite bath with dual sinks, while a second generously sized bedroom with its own attached bathroom provides ideal flexibility for guests or multigenerational living. A dedicated mudroom, laundry room, and half bath complete a first floor that balances beauty with everyday function. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms -- one currently serving as a home office -- share a full bathroom and gather around a large family room that's perfect for movie nights, homework, or quiet retreats. The finished basement rounds out the home with a remodeled TV and entertainment room and generous storage throughout. Outside, a sprawling 26x16 deck overlooks a rare, flat, fully fenced private yard -- professionally landscaped and hardwired with landscape lighting front and back for stunning curb appeal day and night. Whole-house gutter guards, a French drain system, dual sump pumps, and a freshly encapsulated crawl space (2025) round out a property maintained with the kind of care and intention that experienced buyers immediately recognize.
