Property Description

Picture this: Saturday morning in Oakhurst, strolling to Oakview Coffee while neighbors wave hello. Later, kids play at Harmony Park as you catch up with friends at Universal Joint, planning for the BBQ & Blues Festival. As evening falls, jazz from the Scottish Rite floats through your windows. Oakhurst has something special that's getting harder to find—a genuine sense of community where people actually know each other. At 323 Fayetteville Road, you're not just buying a beautiful home, you're becoming part of this wonderful tapestry. Oh, and your mortgage feels friendlier thanks to that income from the apartment above the garage. When you walk through the front door, you'll immediately feel how thoughtfully designed every square foot of this home is. Unlike the cookie-cutter new construction that dominates today's market—those towering boxes that barely leave room to breathe on their lots—this expanded renovation respects its surroundings. It sits comfortably on the land, like it's always belonged there. Rich character hits you right away—that stunning brick fireplace, real hardwood floors throughout, and those magical reclaimed wood ceilings that everyone comments on. Completely remodeled in the mid-2010s by a local builder (who happens to be a neighbor), all systems have been updated—electrical, plumbing, HVAC—giving you peace of mind. The layout reveals someone who truly understands how people live. The sitting room flows naturally into a sun-filled dining area. The breakfast nook connects to the kitchen, creating that perfect spot where kids finish homework while you prepare dinner. No awkward transitions—just rooms that make sense. The kitchen is truly the heart of this home, with white cabinetry, matte black countertops, and stainless appliances including a gas cooktop. Globe pendant lights add modern style while the wooden ceiling keeps everything grounded. The breakfast bar ensures family inevitably gathers here—exactly as it should be. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a true retreat with vaulted ceilings and a spa-like ensuite featuring a freestanding tub and separate shower. Two additional bedrooms share a well-appointed bath, and there's a laundry room right where you need it. The lower level includes a flexible space (currently an office) that could easily become a library, den, or dining room, adjacent to a cozy family room with another stunning wood ceiling. Storage abounds throughout—there's a designated place for everything. Step outside to discover a deep, private lot that feels like your own retreat. Mature trees provide natural shade, while Japanese maples and azaleas add seasonal color. The brick fire pit creates a natural gathering spot, and the spacious deck is perfect for morning coffee. The financial cherry on top? A separate 1-bed, 1-bath cottage apartment above the detached two-car garage. Filled with natural light and featuring its own private deck, this versatile space commands market rent in the $1,700+ monthly range. The garage offers rare off-street parking with room for two vehicles plus storage. Living on Fayetteville Road puts you in that sweet spot where everything feels just right. Front porches become gathering spots, with evening conversations while kids play across adjoining yards. School mornings are easier when Oakhurst Elementary, 4/5 Academy, and Decatur High are all within reach. Weekends bring their own rituals—grabbing that famous pimento cheese from Oakhurst Market or visiting shops where owners know your name. At $1,400,000, this isn't just a smart real estate move. Sure, the numbers make sense, especially with built-in rental income. But what you're really getting is something increasingly precious—a life where community actually means something. Where neighbors know your kids' names and keep an eye out for each other. Properties with this combination of space, income potential, and prime location don't come along often. And when they do, they tend to go quickly. Call today.
