About 972 Dunning Street Se
Where Summerhill Meets Peoplestown – Bright, Airy, and Perfectly Positioned
With classic Craftsman lines and modern updates, this home offers a thoughtful balance of style, light, and livability. The inviting front profile—architecturally true to the Craftsman style—is graced by tiered front porches with all-new lighting, creating day-to-night curb appeal.
Inside, a two-story fireside great room is illuminated by second-story clerestory windows paired with expansive glass on the main level. Just off the great room, the dining area brings a hint of formality while remaining effortlessly connected—complete with an additional passage to the kitchen for a flow that feels as good as it looks. The kitchen offers generous storage, abundant counter space, and stainless steel appliances, anchored by a breakfast area wrapped in windows with backyard views—the perfect spot to start your day.
Just beyond the breakfast space, access to the oversized 2.5-car garage reveals soaring ceilings, ample storage or workshop potential, and a direct connection to the backyard. A nook beneath the garage staircase provides convenient space for seasonal décor, luggage, or other items you don’t need every day.
Making your way from the kitchen back toward the great room, you’ll find a fully renovated powder room and a wallpapered laundry area, separated from the living space by a walk-in under-stair closet—yet another smart storage solution.
As you ascend the intersecting dual-flight staircase—anchored by a stunning Anthropologie chandelier and oversized picture window that drenches the gallery wall in natural light—the landing overlooks the great room and leads to three bedrooms. At the front of the home, the first bedroom is currently used as an office and opens to the upper-level covered porch. A second bedroom between the office and the primary serves as a gracious guest suite, positioned across from a beautifully updated bath featuring a backlit LED mirror with adjustable light temperatures and a built-in defroster to keep your reflection clear no matter how steamy it gets.
At the end of the hall, the palatial primary wing boasts a custom walk-in closet large enough for a seating area, giving it the feel of a private boutique rather than a simple storage space. The renovated ensuite bath is a spa-inspired retreat, with a soaking tub, a large glass-enclosed shower with a built-in bench, marble mosaic flooring, and beveled subway tile walls accented by warm gold fixtures. A double vanity with bold cabinetry, crisp quartz counters, and a private water closet completes this indulgent space.
The primary bedroom, crowned with tray ceilings, is spacious enough for multiple seating areas and is surrounded by windows offering elevated yet private views of Atlanta’s lush canopy and the beautifully improved backyard. Designed for both polish and practicality, the fully fenced yard features lush turf framed by meandering pavers and a professionally installed drainage system—ready for everything from lazy Sunday lounging to lively garden gatherings.
Just minutes from Summerhill’s Georgia Avenue—home to Little Bear, Southern National, Wood’s Chapel BBQ, The Little Tart, and Big Softie—you’re also a stone’s throw from multiple parks, Grant Park, and the BeltLine. With quick interstate access and a location south of the Connector, trips to the world’s busiest airport are easy and direct. Whether you’re staying in or heading out, get ready for your best live at 972 Dunning.
