Description

Welcome to 2551 Raintree, a stately brick-and-stone residence built in 2006, offering six bedrooms, five full baths, and two half baths, in a highly convenient location with easy access to I-85, I-285, Emory, CDC, CHOA, and top area schools. From the covered front porch to the beautifully landscaped backyard, this home blends timeless design with thoughtful updates throughout. Inside, a spacious foyer welcomes you and is elegantly flanked by a formal dining room with wainscoting and a private office featuring custom built-ins, coffered ceilings, and French doors with transom windows that allow for both privacy and natural light. Hardwoods, plantation shutters, and detailed molding elevate the main level, while multiple living spaces—including a family room with coffered ceilings and a vaulted keeping room with rustic beams, each with a fireplace—offer warmth and versatility. The stunning chef’s kitchen is designed for both function and style, featuring white cabinetry, a large pantry, an oversized center island with seating for five, stunning Delicatus White granite countertops, a marble backsplash, double wall ovens, a built-in microwave, and a commercial-grade Viking 6-burner cooktop with griddle. It opens seamlessly to a light-filled breakfast room and keeping room, with direct access to a screened porch and grilling deck—perfect for indoor-outdoor entertaining. The main level also includes a bedroom with a full bath, as well as an additional powder room for guests. Upstairs, the oversized primary suite offers a true retreat with a sitting room, a spa-like bathroom complete with dual vanities, a separate whirlpool tub and shower with double shower heads and handheld, and a large walk-in closet. Additional bedrooms feature walk-in closets, while a versatile bonus room provides endless possibilities. Thoughtful touches like window seats add charm while a centrally located laundry room adds everyday convenience. The terrace level is a true extension of the home and is built for entertaining. A third fireplace warms the central living space that also features a beautifully designed bar complete with a built-in ice maker, dual-zone wine refrigerator, and a Fisher & Paykel dishwasher drawer. A combination media/game room provides a space for fun and relaxation while a spacious gym could also be used as a 6th bedroom. The recently renovated bathroom includes a frameless shower, an infrared sauna and a second set of laundry hook-ups. A second powder room and generous storage complete this level which opens to a partially covered stone patio with access to the backyard, which offers ample space for a future pool. With new paint, updated lighting, and modern cabinet hardware throughout, this move-in ready home offers exceptional space, comfort, and craftsmanship. They truly don’t build them like this anymore.
