Set on an oversized corner lot, this 1950s ranch offers classic charm with thoughtful updates in a beloved central location. With three bedrooms and one and a half baths, the home features two inviting living spaces, a separate dining room, and a kitchen that opens easily into both the living room and den, creating wonderful flow for everyday living and entertaining. Hardwood floors, updated lighting, a modern classic kitchen, and plenty of 1950s charm set the tone throughout, complemented by abundant natural light and an easy, comfortable layout. A large screened porch extends the living space outdoors and overlooks a very large, flat, privacy-fenced yard?ideal for gardeners, play, or quiet outdoor enjoyment. Across from a completely wooded green space and zoned Museum School Tier 1, the home is just a short walk or drive to Legacy Park, downtown Decatur, and neighborhood favorites. Lovingly maintained and move-in ready, this home is waiting for its next owner.
