If you have been dreaming of an intown Decatur home that actually feels like home, this one delivers in all the right ways. Perfectly positioned less than a mile from Oakhurst Square and just over a mile to Decatur Square, you are minutes from your favorite coffee runs, dinner spots, festivals and weekend strolls. Add in highly ranked City Schools of Decatur and quick access to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Emory University and the Clifton Corridor, and you have one of the most convenient locations in the city. But what truly makes this home special is how it lives. Step inside to sun-filled living spaces with beautiful hardwood floors, oversized windows, and a cozy fireplace that instantly invites you to kick off your shoes and stay awhile. The layout flows effortlessly into a bright, welcoming dining space that is perfect for weeknight dinners, holidays, and everything in between. The kitchen is both stylish and practical, featuring sleek dark cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse sink, and large windows that bring in gorgeous natural light. It is the kind of kitchen that works just as well for morning coffee as it does for hosting friends. One of the true showstoppers is the primary suite. With vaulted ceilings, exposed wood beams, and a private door leading straight out to the deck, this space feels like a peaceful retreat tucked into the trees. The ensuite bath is equally impressive with a large walk-in glass shower and clean, modern finishes. A beautifully updated secondary bath adds flexibility for guests or everyday living. Upstairs, you will find two charming loft-style bedrooms with built-in shelving. Previously occupied by two teenagers, these rooms are perfect for kids, or use them as a home office, creative studio, playroom, or cozy reading hideaway! Outside is where the real opportunity shines. The home sits on a large lot with room to truly create something special. Whether you are dreaming of an addition, expanded outdoor entertaining space, or a backyard oasis complete with a pool, this yard offers rare flexibility for an intown Decatur property. The elevated deck already provides an ideal setting for grilling, gathering, and relaxing under the trees. And then there is the street. This is a fantastic, social block known for its annual neighborhood events and regular get-togethers. It is the kind of place where people know each other, kids ride bikes together, and neighbors become friends. In a location this close to Oakhurst and Downtown Decatur, with strong schools, an easy commute corridor, a beautiful interior, and a lot that gives you room to grow, this home offers something truly hard to find. A warm, connected lifestyle today, and incredible long-term potential for tomorrow.
