Move-In Ready 3-Bedroom Home on Decatur’s Historic West End!
This beautiful 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home is perfectly located just steps from Kiwanis Park and an incredible bike/walking path. The spacious living and dining rooms feature stunning hardwood floors and flow seamlessly into the updated kitchen, complete with modern cabinets and stainless steel appliances. A slider off the dining room opens to a deck overlooking a fenced backyard, perfect for outdoor entertaining.
Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms with plenty of natural light. Recent updates include replacement windows, plus a brand-new roof, furnace, air conditioner, and water heater in 2024, providing peace of mind for years to come. New garage door opener and integrated security system ($8,000 upgrade)
Please note: While the property currently lacks a homestead exemption, an owner-occupant would qualify for one in 2026, potentially reducing property taxes by nearly $600/year.
