There are homes that simply check boxes-and then there are homes that tell a story. 2265 East Lake Road is firmly in the second category. Designed by Georgia's second female architect, Leila Ross Wilburn, this remarkable Arts & Crafts home sits proudly in Historic Druid Hills, where tree-lined streets, deep porches, and architectural legacy set the tone for everyday life. From the moment you arrive, the original tile roof and grand porte-cochere make a statement, while the expansive covered front porch invites slow mornings, neighborly waves, and evenings spent watching the world go by. Inside, the home feels both grand and welcoming. Original hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, and elegant coved ceilings anchor the main living and dining rooms-spaces made for holidays, dinner parties, and long conversations by the fire. The living room's dramatic granite fireplace mantel is a true focal point, blending history with presence. At the center of the home is a thoughtfully renovated chef's kitchen that honors the past while embracing modern living. Warm wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, and professional-grade stainless steel appliances make it as functional as it is beautiful. The kitchen and breakfast area are accented by quartz tile floors, which match the fireplace in the family room. Original details like the depression glass front door and picture window quietly remind you that this home's soul is intact.Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms, including a serene owner's suite that feels like a private retreat. It features a fireplace, spa-like bath, walk-in cedar closet, private balcony, double vanity, jetted tub, and a shower with body jets. A second spa bath with a steam shower, an original vintage bath, a laundry room, and a charming bedroom with sunroom round out the upper level-each space layered with character and comfort. Downstairs offers exceptional flexibility with a private in-law or teen suite, complete with ADA-compliant 42-inch doors and a stepless back entrance. The large family room-with its fireplace and built-ins-opens to a breakfast room, making this level ideal for multigenerational living, guests, or work-from-home needs. Practical touches abound, including both front and rear parking, and easy access to East Lake MARTA, neighborhood shops, parks, and some of Atlanta's most beloved communities. 2265 East Lake Road isn't just a house-it's a rare opportunity to live inside Atlanta's architectural history while enjoying the comforts of today. Homes like this don't come around often, and once you're here, it's easy to imagine never wanting to leave.
