Colorful Artistic Lakefront Home Canoe Opt - Central to Stone Mt + everything!

Golden Pond - Colorful Lake Home Canoe Optional

This delightful, artistic lakefront 4-br colorful home is located in a serene neighborhood - a stone's throw from Stone Mt, the DeKalb Farmer's Market and central to just about anywhere in ATL. Canoe by arrangement and public pool in summer, laser and fireworks show every Sat in warm months and Snow Mountain tobogganing in winter just around the corner. Fun, whimsical, artistic, joyful, airy with lots of possibilities & extras! Enjoy the screened in porch and views of the lake! We have added upgraded Calvin Klein luxury bedding in some rooms, colorful china, crockery and towels. The kitchen is fully loaded.

This charming 4-bedroom (well three bedrooms and a cool private wing which is a den/ office with porch walk-out and its own suite feel) artists' home faces a beautiful small lake and pond, and even offers a canoe by arrangement (use at your own risk). There are lots of possibilities here including a sunny King Master Suite with brand new custom mattress, private full bath and lake views, a lovely Victorian Queen with brand new mattress , a couch surfer's with pull out sofa in this comfortable suite with office, half bath, laundry and walk-out screened porch with lake views and a futon in an intimate private room. The couch pulls out to a single-sized bed. The entire 4-bedroom house is available with an additional pull out couch and futon that can sleep up to 6 (2 couples and 2 singles) people - most comfortably. Colorful home and artistic painted furnishings with twinkly lights and tons of atmosphere! Fully loaded kitchen, upgraded bedding, colorful crockery, towels, bedding and china. Lakefront property (the lake and pond are small with more boating and fishing available at nearby Stone Mountain Park) with canoe by special arrangement; w/d, fully loaded kitchen; dishwasher; microwave, disposal, toaster, pots and pans; full laundry (by arrangement), office and a beautiful serene atmosphere. Great location - central to everything, but quiet and relaxing with lovely views. Just a stone's throw from Stone Mountain, the DeKalb Farmer's Market and not far to downtown Atlanta and the airport! There's even a public swimming pool just around the bend. This creative and artful home is truly one of a kind! Ask! We'll try to accommodate you if we can! Free WIFI, Netflix, and such amenities as extra shampoo, a hair dryer, hangers, iron and more!

There is a canoe that you can use by special arrangement, and in the summer months, the neighborhood swimming pool is available just around the corner! We do not assume any liability if you choose to use either the canoe or the swimming pool.

We have two widescreen TVs, free WIFI, Netflix and make additional amenities such as hair dryer, iron, shampoo, computer available upon request. 24 hour check in may be made available. We also provide some fun extras like a coffee/tea caddy, a Welcome Basket with treats and use of the washer and dryer with permission.

Regretfully, our listing is only child friendly If you take 100% responsibility for the safety of your children. There are many artful pieces that could be breakable. Please do not allow them access to our elevated deck with no rail, the nearby lake and our original decor but we are open to discussion on this and have had quite a few families with children stay who all had a wonderful time. While we love pets, we generally prefer that you leave them at home although we have made the occasional exception.

Clarkston is a fascinating neighborhood with more ethnic diversity in our one mile by one mile radius than all of Manhattan. Great ethnic restaurants even walkable - Try Kathmandu for Indian/Nepalese with a great and pre COVID economical lunch buffet. Check out Stone Mountain Park, just five minutes away, two fabulous Farmer's Markets and more. You are not far from downtown Atlanta and the airport. You may park in the driveway (though please employ your emergency break and part at the top to avoid any falling limbs) or on street parking.

We make some exceptions for pets with proof of de-fleaing and a $50 deposit per animal at the owner's discretion. The nightly rate may vary somewhat during heavy usage, holidays, for larger groups, when pets are brought, etc.., again, at the discretion of the owner. Generally this will not exceed more than $50 a night per extra person or pet.

Be sure to experience Golden Pond time and just relax on the screened in porch with beautiful lake views! Canoe available if desired. There will be an automatic $30 one time fee.

Due to COVID we prefer guests who have been fully vaccinated.

Why they chose this property

This lakefront house is perfect in so many ways. It is central to everything, yet quiet and peaceful with a serenity where you and yours can get away from it all. It's colorful, unique, artistic and fun but with all the comforts of home. Two brand new ultra comfortable king and queen mattresses upstairs, a cool private suite downstairs with office, walk-out screened porch, pull out couch and a cozy upstairs private futon - intimate! The kitchen is fully loaded and perfect if you'd like to cook a modest meal with a recently added new stove and refrigerator. It's really fun to be on the lake. We do have a canoe which is available for your stay for a modest $30. We have free WIFI, Netflix, sometimes Amazon Prime, an office area, if needed, and laundry facilities, if desired. We are close to Stone Mountain Park, two fabulous farmers markets and easy access car ride, MARTA ride or Uber ride to downtown. The airport is easy and accessible, 30 minutes away. People love relaxing on the screened porch and just kicking back enjoying the lake views. Our decor is truly one of a kind and very colorful with twinkly lights indoors and out for a really romantic and appealing atmosphere. The tri-level house is spacious and cozy at the same time! You'll never get bored exploring all the original art, china, crockery as well as multi-colored towels and plush bedding with top of the line Calvin Klein sheets in some of the rooms. Everyone who has stayed here can't wait to come back - and we are still quite reasonably priced. We like to go the extra mile so often leave extra surprises. We are always happy to accommodate your needs - if we can. So just ask! We will do our best to make this happen! I and our house manager are available with flexible schedules, so always text or call any time with queries. The house is on a keyless lock so entry and exit are easy as pie.

What makes this property unique

I've always dreamed of living in an artists' house on a lake! And now I do! Everyone always says "Keep your house nice and neutral in case you ever want to sell." Well, in this case we threw caution to the winds and have created our dream house! Every wall is a different color and we have not held back with creative, fun, unique and whimsical choices! You'll get a big bang our of our one-of-a-kind decor! And you can't beat the lakefront location! Can you tell - we LOVE painted furniture and outsider art!

We've created a Victorian Cottage feel in a 50's split level. Go figure!
