A rare opportunity to create your home in the City of Decatur! There are so many possibilities this little gem. A few updates and a coat of paint and you can move into this three-bedroom one bathroom home with so many windows it feels like living in a treehouse. There is vintage charm in the cozy breakfast nook, hardwood floors, original bathroom fixtures, and basement workshop and garage. While modern convenience is in the newer appliances, basement laundry room, and plenty of storage. Or take on that big renovation and build your dream house. The attic provides loads of extra storage yet is easily expandable for additional bedrooms and bathrooms (and don’t forget to add that rooftop deck to savor the stunning sunset views). Whatever you decide, you can relax on the large back patio that is ready for Decatur’s three-seasons of outdoor dining and enjoy the generously sized backyard with loved ones. The location boasts lovely neighborhood walks to Hidden Cove Park and Westchester Elementary School and a back road commute to CDC and Emory that avoids the traffic of Decatur’s main roads. All this and it is still wonderfully walkable to Downtown Decatur with its world-class dining, shopping, libraries, parks, playgrounds, and excellent neighborhood schools. Don't miss out on this golden opportunity and schedule a showing today to explore the potential of this classic home in a terrific neighborhood in the City of Decatur.
