About This Home

As of July 2025

Welcome to 2485 Hillside Avenue, a renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home located in East Lake Terrace, a quiet neighborhood in Decatur. This home offers comfortable living space, practical updates, and a clean, modern look that's easy to settle into. The front stoop leads you into an open living area with recessed lighting and neutral finishes. The layout flows easily from the living room to the dining area and into a bright, all new kitchen. The kitchen is outfitted with white shaker-style cabinets, stainless steel appliances, a deep basin sink, marble-patterned backsplash and quartz counters. The primary bedroom includes a tray ceiling and dual windows for natural light. The ensuite bathroom has a walk-in shower, tile surround, and pebble floor detail. Two additional bedrooms share a full hall bath with a tub/shower combo and simple, clean finishes. Step outside to a back deck overlooking a fenced backyard-a great space for pets, a small garden, or weekend hangouts under the trees. The home also includes a 1-car attached garage, perfect for extra storage or off-street parking. Nearly new HVAC, new water heater. Enjoy the convenience of being just a 5-minute walk to the Scott Candler Library and a 15-minute stroll to Barker Bryant Memorial Park, with its centerpiece lake, walking trails, and green space. Plus, you're just minutes from the buzzing Hosea + 2nd district, Oakhurst, downtown Decatur and major commuting routes.
