Welcome to 2596 Shetland Drive, a spacious brick ranch with a full finished basement in the sought-after Laurel Ridge Elementary district, offering an incredible combination of space, thoughtful updates, and an unbeatable Decatur location. With 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, including two primary suites with private ensuite bathrooms, this home offers exceptional flexibility for multigenerational living, guests, a home office, or simply room to spread out. The beautifully updated kitchen features custom cabinetry, Calacatta quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and refinished hardwood floors that flow throughout the main living spaces. The main owner's suite feels like a true retreat with a luxurious spa-like bathroom featuring a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and an impressively large walk-in closet. Bedroom closets feature custom California Closets systems, providing smart, beautifully designed storage throughout the home, while the dedicated craft room is also outfitted with California Closets-designed storage to keep supplies organized and creativity flowing. Downstairs, the expansive finished basement provides even more living and entertaining space along with a full laundry room, while an additional laundry hookup on the main level adds everyday convenience. The stepless entry makes this home especially accessible, while solar panels and a whole-house surge protector help keep energy costs down and the home protected, even during those famously unforgiving Georgia summers. The location is just as impressive, with Laurel Ridge Elementary, Druid Hills Middle School, and the growing Lulah Hills development all within walking distance. Homeowners also receive priority placement for membership at Pangborn Pool, a neighborhood favorite during the warmer months. Conveniently located near Emory, the CDC, I-285, and downtown Decatur, 2596 Shetland Drive delivers the space, accessibility, location, and updates that are increasingly hard to find in one home.
