This Treetop Retreat on Oakview is for buyers who want privacy, light, views and walkability, all in one unforgettable home, just 0.3 miles from the heart of Oakhurst Village. Blending modern sophistication with warm, livable design, this Arlene Dean and Eric Rawlins residence offers a rare, elevated setting with tree-filled views and mountain-inspired serenity in one of Decatur’s most coveted neighborhoods. Intentionally elevated above the street, the private drive creates a true sense of arrival. By lifting the home above surrounding activity, it enhances privacy, quiet, and protected sightlines into the treetops, creating a peaceful retreat while remaining moments from village shops, dining, and community life. Inside, dramatic windows flood every level with natural light and lush green views. The main-level primary suite is a calming retreat with a spa-inspired bath featuring a soaking tub, expansive shower and generous closet. A second en suite bedroom on the main level offers flexibility for guests, a home office, or multi-generational living, as does the finished terrace level that offers an optional in-law suite, complete with kitchenette and full bath. Or just enjoy it as a fantastic recreation space with an impressive 900-bottle wine cellar with your closest companions. Multiple living spaces allow everyone to gather or retreat with ease, from the formal dining room that seats a crowd to the inviting den off the kitchen and the front living room that opens to the beloved treetop porch, ideal for morning coffee or sunset cocktails. The bright, updated kitchen combines timeless design and modern functionality with bright white and dramatic blue cabinetry, honed marble countertops and serene backyard views. Outdoor living is an everyday luxury with a covered front porch featuring a raised ceiling and fireplace, a rear deck equipped with an outdoor refrigerator, grill, and sink, and a fenced backyard with stone fire pit surrounded by greenery for privacy. Upstairs, two additional en suite bedrooms and a sun-filled loft provide flexible living. Recent updates, including a new roof, further enhance the ease and confidence of ownership. A rare combination of privacy, flexibility, and location, this one-of-a-kind retreat is crafted for view seekers, privacy lovers and buyers who appreciate elevated living just moments from the energy of Oakhurst Village.
