Rare 1980s Dunwoody home just minutes from Brook Run Park. Tucked into the back of the small pocket neighborhood of Dunwoody Trace, this home offers the kind of setting families hope to find: quiet streets, a strong sense of community, and easy access to some of Dunwoody's best parks and everyday conveniences.
The home sits on a huge flat culdesac with zero through traffic, where kids ride bikes and neighbors naturally gather outside. A second culdesac connects nearby, creating an unusually large stretch of paved space that becomes a natural spot for bikes, scooters, and neighborhood play. One of the most loved features of this location is 110 acre Brook Run Park, and the side park entrance is just a half-mile walk along neighborhood streets and sidewalks, making it easy to enjoy playgrounds, dog walks, trails, community events, and weekend festivals. Outdoor living is also a highlight of the home. The screened porch with vaulted ceilings and exposed wood beams feels like an outdoor living room overlooking the backyard, creating the perfect place for morning coffee or relaxed evenings with friends. The fully fenced backyard includes multiple seating areas and a firepit gathering space, ideal for both kids and pets. The yard is currently finished in lowmaintenance pinestraw, but with neighboring trees recently removed it also offers great potential for buyers who want to add sod and create a larger grassy play area.
Inside, the home offers a layout that works well for everyday family life, with the kitchen flowing into the main living space so conversations continue easily during meals and gatherings. A separate dining room provides space for holidays and family dinners, while a flexible front living room can function as a home office, playroom, or quiet reading space. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a spacious bathroom with double vanity, soaking tub, and separate shower, along with a versatile sitting room and dressing area with additional closets that can function as a private office, fitness space, or quiet retreat.
Additional practical features include a twocar garage with a dedicated storage room. It offers excellent storage for tools, seasonal items, and sports equipment. Dunwoody Trace also stands out among Dunwoody neighborhoods because many homes were built in the 1980s, while much of the city's housing dates to the 1960s and early 1970s. That later construction often means 9foot ceilings, more modern layouts, and underground utilities, features that are harder to find in many of Dunwoody's older neighborhoods.
The home is zoned for Dunwoody Elementary School, Peachtree Middle School, and Dunwoody High School, one of the most soughtafter school clusters in the area. Everyday errands are easy with Kroger and the Georgetown shopping area just 1.4 miles away, Pernoshal Park approximately 1.3 miles away, and quick access to I285 (1.5 miles) for commuting around metro Atlanta.
For buyers looking for a home that combines community, park access, and a family-friendly culdesac setting, this location is hard to beat.
