1980 Glenwood Downs Dr, Decatur, GA 30035

An easygoing neighborhood, about as close to the city as you can get. Seriously, the Perimeter is *right there,* so wherever the commute takes you, you're good to go. But, work is different. When you're home, you're home. And in the case of 1980 Glenwood Downs, that accommodation is a remarkably renovated 3-bedroom 2 bath that leaves nothing to chance in all of its 1,300+/- square feet. Roof, HVAC, windows, plumbing, electric: all updated to modern standards. A move-in ready, turnkey home with zero surprises and a kicking, spit-polished contemporary aesthetic. It has something to do with the brick-lined, gabled curb appeal increasingly common in a rapidly evolving street like this one. And a cleanly finished two-car garage with a little room left over (heaven for a weekend woodworker). Through the front door, wood tones play off the anchoring crown and base moldings. This entryway leads to two bedrooms (one already outfitted as a home office, both with ample closet space) that share a full bath. But beyond, the focal point: a vaulted ceiling that opens up the living and dining areas (all the better to soak in the natural light streaming in from west-facing windows). A space that craves cooling slate tones — a hue you'll find in the completely remodeled kitchen replete with high-end stainless appliances, custom cabinetry, and solid granite that sets the stage for the subway-tiled motif you'll find elsewhere in 1980 Glenwood Downs. And then the primary suite. All off on its own, just beyond the fireplace, and ready to accommodate elevated touches: the tray ceiling, for instance; bonus points for the balanced, contemporary bathroom, streamlined with upgraded plumbing fixtures and a custom-tiled tub/shower combo. A few steps back, and through the French doors, a patio tailor-made for time to sit back and unwind with a cocktail and Bar-B-Q with friends and family. The pooch-friendly backyard includes a 6ft wood privacy fence and all-new landscaping. A lawn, by the way, that backs to a veritable forest — nobody's going build out there, ever, so maximum points for privacy. Privacy that, frankly, is not the easiest thing to come by when you're this close in. In short, a gem of suburban Atlanta construction that covers every need an elevated starter home can afford — while doubling as a sweet investment for the years to come. Priced to bring immediate attention at $279,900.
