162 Howard Street NE, Atlanta, GA 30317

Perfectly positioned on one of Kirkwood's most storied streets, this nearly new, expertly designed 5-bedroom, 3.5 bath home blends timeless design, distinctive personality, and modern functionality, delivering a residence that feels both elevated and effortlessly livable.

Designed with respect for the surrounding neighborhood, every detail reflects a thoughtful, curated approach, from Circa lighting and Rejuvenation hardware to marble countertops sourced from Tate, Georgia. Just beyond the welcoming front porch, the main level unfolds with an easy, intentional flow.

A handsome study lined with two walls of built ins introduces a sense of character often missing in newer construction, while a bespoke mural adds a layer of artistry to the bright and spacious dining room. Tucked just beyond the butler's pantry, the kitchen serves as the true heart of the home, opening seamlessly to the living room.

Custom cabinetry, clever storage, top tier appliances, and a sun-filled breakfast room come together in a space that is as functional as it is refined. The living room is anchored by a gas fireplace and built in cabinetry, with French doors opening to an expansive deck and fully fenced backyard, creating a natural extension for both everyday living and entertaining.

Upstairs, the primary suite offers a quiet retreat with a generously sized walk-in closet and a well-appointed bath featuring dual vanities, a dedicated makeup desk, clawfoot tub, and a classic, subway tiled shower. Two light filled secondary bedrooms, a hall bath, and a spacious laundry room complete the second level.

The third level adds unexpected flexibility, with two additional bedrooms and a full bath suited for a range of uses, from guest space to a home office, playroom, or creative studio. The unfinished terrace level extends the home's potential even further.

Already heated and cooled, framed, and stubbed for a bathroom, it presents a rare opportunity to customize additional living space. Behind the scenes, modern upgrades include a whole house water filtration system and an energy efficient tankless water heater.

Outside, gated off street parking adds convenience, while the expansive yard offers the option to incorporate a carriage house or ADU, enhancing both flexibility and long-term value. A rare offering, this is a move in ready home with room to grow, set within one of Kirkwood's most desirable settings, where tree lined streets, a vibrant neighborhood core, and a true sense of community come together in one of Atlanta's most enduring and sought after neighborhoods.
