About This Home
Welcome to your new home in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in Decatur. With great schools and close proximity to both Decatur and Atlanta hot spots like Oakhurst, Kirkwood, and East Atlanta, you get all the amenities you want, on a quiet street. This charmer has many recent updates: including a newly renovated primary bathroom* (*will be finished in the next couple of weeks), new refrigerator/ freezer, newly painted cabinets and walls, new washer/dryer, updated and/or newly serviced sewer line, sump pump, furnace, and ducts. Seller is motivated to sell. You may also qualify for an additional $3500 in closing cost credits with our preferred lender. The four-sided brick, mid-century ranch sits amidst a beautifully landscaped front lawn, with granite and stone walkways, snaking around each side of the house, leading to the back deck, the back yard, or up to the roomy front porch. Add a swing or a few rocking chairs, it's the perfect place to chat with your neighbors during the afternoon dog/kid walking brigade. The front door opens to a sun filled den with gleaming hardwood floors, which leads into the breakfast nook, breakfast bar, and kitchen with newly painted, cabinets and new stainless-steel refrigerator. From there, your French doors open to a beautiful wooden deck overlooking an expansive backyard that backs into Dearborn Park. Talk about privacy! The park is a picturesque destination that features seven acres of green space with a boardwalk and gravel trail, basketball court, picnic pavilions, a playground, running streams, and a tranquil pond stocked with fish. A weekend full of activities, in your backyard. A third door into the side of the kitchen makes bringing shopping goodies, right to the refrigerator and gleaming granite counters, a breeze. Wander further into the home, on blonde hardwood floors throughout, you'll find the three sun-filled bedrooms. The two guest rooms share a full bathroom which is updated with modern amenities, while keeping vintage touches like original tile and bathtub. At the end of the hall is the sunlit primary bedroom with *newly, to be renovated, full bath*,(*will be renovated in the next couple of weeks*) The interior stairs in the middle of the hall take you down to the attached garage and the finished basement, which includes more livable space: a large bonus room with full bathroom, and adjacent finished office/workroom. Make the basement a playroom, home yoga studio, family entertainment room, or fourth bedroom for guests. Want a house hack? Add a hot plate and a microwave and you have apartment. The second refrigerator, full bath and separate exterior entrance, make it perfect for family and guests to have plenty of room to live, work, and play. Outside and inside, this is a home that will have something for everyone. Make it yours today!
