You see terms like "one of a kind", "private retreat", and "easy rental income" a lot when scrolling through listings, but rarely do any of them ring true in person - let alone all of them on the same home. But that's the case at 2896 Faraday Ct. Leaving loving hands for the first time in 50 years, this sprawling two-story on three-quarters of an acre is meant for an owner who wants to wake up in a natural sanctuary without the location compromises that typically come with it. An owner who also wants the perks of passive income and/or multi-generational living between the upstairs 1 bed, 1 bath, full kitchen, laundry, and 1 living space apartment suite with separate HVAC and single private entrance, AND the lower level in-law suite with bedroom, huge living room, a sunroom, kitchen, bath, storage, and interior and exterior entry. But let's not forget the classic home itself with 3 separate and spacious living spaces, 4 bedrooms including an oversized owner's suite, traditional dining room and central kitchen, and impressive touches like the grand stone fireplace, dental molding, office off the laundry room, huge slate entrance foyer, and ample off street parking for everyone. All of this overlooking an immense and truly private backyard featuring a peaceful creek with picturesque covered bridge, entertainment deck, and a grassy field. Best of all, this personal retreat is at the center of a bustling community with the super involved and walkable Country Squire Neighborhood zoned to sought after Laurel Ridge/Druid Hills. With first priority for Pangborn Swim & Tennis, nearby pocket parks, Publix, the incoming Lulah Hills development, Emory, CDC, and so much more!

There are homes you admire, and then there are homes that simply feel special. Set on nearly half an acre in the heart of Oakhurst, 239 W Benson Street is a timeless classic where historic character, remarkable scale, beautiful outdoor living and one of Decatur's most vibrant communities come together. Immediately inside the proportions are impressive. Soaring ceilings and extraordinarily tall windows flood the home with natural light, while beautiful wood floors with distinctive bespoke markings that speak to the home's history bring warmth and character that simply cannot be replicated. Every room feels gracious yet inviting, preserving the soul of a historic home while offering the space and flexibility of modern life. With 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths plus a dedicated office, the floor plan offers wonderful versatility. The oversized primary suite is a destination of its own, with a private balcony, a wall of built-in storage and the kind of scale rarely encountered in a home of this era, a serene retreat tucked away from the main living spaces. Outside you are spoiled with a choice of multiple outdoor spaces that create places to dine under the trees, entertain friends, garden, play or simply enjoy the privacy and breathing room of an expansive property, all while living in the heart of Oakhurst. You know you will be living in this epic screened in porch year round! And Oakhurst isn't simply where you live; it's part of how you live. Just a block from Oakhurst Village for coffee, dinner or drinks, wander through the beloved Wylde Center's Oakhurst Garden, jump on the PATH or make Saturday morning a ritual at the year-round Oakhurst Farmers Market, where local produce, baked goods, live music and chef demonstrations bring neighbors together. Parks, playgrounds, restaurants, neighborhood gathering spots, MARTA and City Schools of Decatur are all woven into daily life and offer an unbeatable lifestyle quality. And then there is PORCHFEST, one of the traditions that captures Oakhurst better than almost anything else. For one unforgettable day, porches become stages, yards become venues and the neighborhood fills with music, neighbors and visitors wandering from performance to performance. With roughly 200 acts spread throughout Oakhurst, it is grassroots community at its absolute best-and when you live here, it's happening in your neighborhood. Not forgetting close proximity to Downtown Decatur and nearby Hosea & 2nd Hub, spoilt for choice is an understatement. Behind all of this historic beauty are significant recent improvements for the home's next chapter, including a 2025 new roof, full exterior painting in 2025 and a 2026 AquaGuard basement system creating HUGE storage potential, plus many documented additional improvements throughout. 239 W Benson Street isn't trying to recreate the character of historic Oakhurst-it is part of it.
