Tucked into the quiet, tree-canopied streets of Sherwood Forest, 1719 Barnesdale Way is an authentic example of true California midcentury modernism. Circa 1950, this home is an honest study in architectural integrity - one level of living wrapped in glass, wood, and stone, and set within gardens designed to feel like a private woodland escape. Originally designed as 3BEDx2.5BATH residence, today the property functions as 2BEDx2.5BATH home, with separate office & walk-in dressing room. Perched above the street on a gentle rolling hill, the manicured lawn, topiaried trees, and architectural water fountain beckon you inside. Step into interiors that showcase the era's finest hallmarks: a dramatic vaulted living room rises to exposed wood beams and tongue-and-groove ceilings, anchored by a floor-to-ceiling Crab Orchard Stone stacked stone fireplace wall that sets the tone for the entire home. A second fireplace, wrapped in matte Firmolux Venetian plaster from Veneto, Italy, warms an adjoining sitting area framed by walls of glass. Throughout the home, walls of windows dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, flooding the oak and travertine floors with natural light and garden views from nearly every room. Custom millwork abounds - from sliding alls & display niches to a striking slatted-wood walk-in closet system. While globe pendant lighting & sliding shoji screens pay homage to the home's MCM heritage. Recent improvements include: Encapsulation of the crawlspace and installation of a dehumidifier by Aquaguard, Two new Carrier A/C & Furnaces with UV light filter, w/ integrated dehumidifier, New plumbing throughout the house (old cast iron and copper pipes were replaced with PVC pipes), New water heater, Custom-made Stoneside shades in the bedrooms, living room, and office, Pleated custom drapes in the den and dining room. Additional features include: a two-car garage, heated bathroom floors, a 2018 roof, an electric car charging station, and double-sided gas fireplace. The integrated kitchen is outfitted with high-end cabinetry and appliances throughout: SubZero refrigerator, two Bosch dishwashers, a Thermador cooktop, and a built-in Jenn-Air oven and microwave. The interior living spaces flow out to private gardens and terraces which wrap the home on all sides. An intimate courtyard w/ hot tub is located just off the primary suite. The den, office, dining room, & living room all open onto lush, layered landscapes of mature camellias, Japanese maples, and towering privacy plantings. A slate-edged koi pond with a fountain sculpture anchors a quiet garden room, while a secluded seating nook - tucked beneath the tree canopy - offers a true retreat within the retreat. Curated garden ornaments, stone lanterns, and a terraced front lawn with its own water feature complete a landscape as considered as the architecture it surrounds. Immediately access all of the best green space Midtown has to offer - the BeltLine, Piedmont Park, Ansley Golf Club, and the Atlanta Botanical Garden are all directly outside your door. Enjoy the vibrancy of this active, in-town community while tucked away on a friendly, quiet street lined with neighborhood parks, tennis courts, and playgrounds. 1719 Barnesdale Way is a one-of-a-kind home, with a rich architectural history which is a must see for any mid-century modern enthusiast.

After living in Sherwood Forest on Robin Hood for 39 years, I love the neighborhood as much as all our neighbors do. When you are looking for a house in Sherwood Forest, it is all about the location and this home checks all the boxes: near the Ansley Golf Club and Beltline, on a tucked away street with no drive through traffic, no traffic noise from the highway on the north boundary, and a view of the golf course. Recent Owners have been transferred out-of-state and spent a million dollars renovating this 1997 built home from top to bottom. The renovations included a new kitchen and scullery or second kitchen, all new bathrooms, expanded impressive primary bedroom closet, all new Pella windows, complete painting of interior and exterior, landscaping and stone steps installed in front of home, a new roof, and on and on. I know the workmanship is first rate because the contractor for this project, Tomco homes, did an addition at my home. From the street at the rear, drive right into a 2-car garage with a heavy steel door and its own separate HVAC system to pamper your cars. Kitchen level entrance insures fewer steps in your day. A pool is on the wish list of most buyers and this home has a gunite, salt water pool that is the focal point of the backyard. On the same level as the home, walk right out onto a wonderful crab orchard stone terrace with plenty of space for a play area and entertaining. Primary bedroom suite is on the second floor but the 2 bedrooms and full bath on the main level could be an alternative primary bedroom. There are more than enough rooms in this house that a buyer can utilize the spaces according to their life style, like designating 2 rooms for 2 home offices. This home is a pleasure to show buyers with its light, bright and airy vibe. A breeze to show!
