Key Facts
Description
Here's something you don't see every day on the rental market: a custom-built, Tudor-inspired brick home with 2,834 square feet, four bedrooms, four full baths, and an address on North Decatur Road for $4,495 a month with electric, gas and water included. If you know the Druid Hills corridor, you already understand what that means. If you don't, here's the short version: you're minutes from Emory University, the CDC, and some of the most beautiful tree-canopied streets in Atlanta, in a 30307 zip code that consistently ranks among the most desirable in the metro. This is the kind of home people buy. The fact that you can rent it changes the math entirely. The custom architecture announces itself before you ever step inside: brick and stone detailing, a turret with arched windows, a covered balcony with iron railing, and the kind of roofline complexity that only comes from a home designed with intention rather than pulled from a production catalog. Step inside and the two-story living room makes an immediate impression, with soaring ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and hardwood floors that catch the light from every angle. Columns and a second-floor loft overlook create a sense of volume and craftsmanship you simply won't find in typical rental inventory. The foyer anchors the main level with an iron-and-wood staircase, travertine tile flooring, and sightlines that pull you deeper into the home. The kitchen is built for someone who actually cooks: cherry cabinetry floor to ceiling, black granite countertops, a center island with a gas cooktop and stainless hood, double wall ovens, built-in microwave, and a full-size stainless refrigerator. Pendant lighting over the island and a stone tile backsplash complete the space. Adjacent to the kitchen, a breakfast nook and dining area with those beautiful arched windows provide the kind of natural light and architectural detail that make ordinary mornings feel a little more intentional. A main-level bedroom with a full bath right next door gives you built-in flexibility for guests, a home office with a door that closes, or anyone in the household who prefers not to do stairs. Laundry is also on the main floor, which sounds like a small thing until you've lived without it. Upstairs, the primary suite is genuinely expansive, the kind of room where a king bed, a reading area, and a workspace all fit without crowding each other. The ensuite bath features a dual-sink granite vanity, a frameless glass shower with travertine surround, and a jetted soaking tub positioned beneath a wall of windows. A generous walk-in closet connects directly to the bath. Two additional bedrooms share the second floor, each with good proportions and closet space, served by two additional full bathrooms. The loft overlooks the living room below and offers enough space to work beautifully as a media room, study, playroom, or second home office. Outside, the lot is a genuine surprise for this part of Atlanta. Mature hardwoods tower over the property, stone walkways wind through established garden beds, and a flagstone patio area off the back of the home creates a natural spot for morning coffee or evening conversation. The aerial views tell the story best: this is a deeply wooded, private setting that feels miles from the city while being minutes from everything. North Decatur Road puts Emory's campus, the Centers for Disease Control, Decatur Square, and the full range of Druid Hills dining and shopping within a short drive or an easy bike ride. For commuters, you have direct access to downtown, Midtown, and Buckhead without touching the interstate if you prefer surface streets, and I-85 is a straight shot when you need it. Available now at $4,495 per month. Applications are processed through Keen + Management and require income verification, credit check, and rental history. Qualified applicants, please inquire directly.
