About This Home

Discover the magic of 615 Sycamore Drive, a picture-perfect English cottage nestled in one of Decatur's most cherished neighborhoods. Perfectly positioned just moments from the vibrant downtown square, currently undergoing an exciting multimillion-dollar renovation ahead of the 2026 World Cup games. This home offers a unique blend of community, culture and convenience. From the moment you arrive, this enchanting English-style cottage with warm hardwood floors invites you in with its timeless appeal and beautifully landscaped surroundings. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully updated to preserve its character while enhancing livability. The spacious living room opens to a charming, screened porch through classic French doors; an ideal spot for enjoying coffee in the morning or hosting friends on warm evenings. The updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, including a new refrigerator, dishwasher and disposal, while the primary suite offers a tranquil retreat with a generous walk-in closet and a newly renovated bathroom with a double vanity in addition to classic tile floors. Tucked away in the backyard, the heated and cooled detached office is a true standout. Flooded with natural light and already plumbed, it's the perfect space for a home office, art studio, or future guest suite with room to add a bath. The large, flat and fenced backyard offers plenty of room to play, grow, or expand. Set on a tree-lined street where neighbors greet each other by name and the energy of Decatur is just around the corner, this home is a rare blend of charm, functionality and location. Don't miss the opportunity to make this beloved Decatur gem your own.
