About this home
Welcome to 1026 McConnell Drive, a beautifully remodeled five-bedroom home where timeless character meets modern luxury. Rich hardwood floors, custom millwork and thoughtfully selected finishes create a warm, sophisticated atmosphere throughout. At the heart of the home is an impressive chef’s kitchen featuring abundant cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, generous workspace and an oversized island with seating. A dedicated coffee and wet bar adds convenience and creates the perfect place to prepare morning coffee or serve guests while entertaining. The kitchen flows effortlessly into a bright casual dining area, while the expansive formal dining room offers plenty of space for holiday gatherings and memorable celebrations. The inviting living room is anchored by a fireplace and surrounded by custom built-in bookcases, creating a comfortable yet elegant place to gather. A spacious office or den with its own stone fireplace provides the perfect setting for working from home, reading or relaxing. Upstairs, five generously sized bedrooms and three full baths provide room for everyone. The oversized owner’s suite is a true retreat, complete with a beautifully remodeled, spa-inspired bath designed for relaxation. The unfinished basement offers tremendous possibilities and is ready to become a media room, game room, home gym, workshop, in-law suite or anything else you can imagine. Outside, the rear deck overlooks a private, wooded backyard with plenty of room to unwind or entertain. Beautifully updated, remarkably spacious and filled with character, this exceptional Decatur home offers the comfort, flexibility and elevated finishes today’s buyers are looking for.
Mason Mill, located between Emory University and Decatur, is a wooded and creekside North Druid Hills neighborhood with a greenway feel and mid-century pockets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Mason Mill Park trailheads near McConnell Drive, where joggers, dog walkers, and cyclists funnel past tennis courts and shaded picnic lawns. Ranch homes and split-levels sit on curving streets, with newer townhomes appearing closer to major corridors. South Peachtree Creek and the PATH corridor shape daily routines with long, leafy routes. Community touchstones include the DeKalb History Center, the Decatur Square live-music calendar, and the Fernbank Museum of Natural History.
