3440 Brookfield Ln, Decatur, GA 30032

House is under contract. Please note: we do not need help listing this home. Please be considerate and do not solicit such services and force us to be rude. Buyers' agents welcome, but again, do not contact us about services to sell the home. We are selling unique starter home on over half park-like acre along a beautiful, flowing creek that flows from Avondale lake to the Yellow River and eventually Ocmulgee. Wildlife abounds: hawks, owls, heron, turtles, fish, frogs, fireflies. Many listings suggest "one of a kind" homes--this one is indeed a unique, cloistered and magical garden in the city. The house is solid, with newer major systems, and would be perfect for a homeowner looking to complete a renovation and build their own equity. The house is brick, newly painted outside and in. The wood floors have been refinished. As much of the original house was intentionally saved in order to preserve material in the spirit of re-use. It has retained much of the original 50's ranch feel but is now a bit more cottage-like and modern. The kitchen has been renovated and outfitted with new, high efficiency appliances. This is a dream home for the gardener or naturalist. It is set back from the road and surrounded by mature trees and shrubs that have filled in over decades. The property has been entirely fenced with a front ranch entry gate and front privacy gates. New trees and shrubs have been planted, including grape, elderberry, currant, fig, hazelnut and juneberry. A gardener would have a good mix of light with which to work. The hvac system was recently replaced. The house has a full basement that would require work in order to finish, but would be fantastic with a walk out entrance near the creek! If you are interested in the home, please contact us via email and tell us a little bit about yourself. We are happy to show the home, but prefer serious buyers. If you are familiar with the area, have researched the opportunity and want to see it, great. If you're just browsing or not actively looking to buy, sorry, but we're far too busy right now. The house is solid and has been a wonderful, cozy home for a few years. The time has come to move along. It does need work, but it is perfect for someone who prefers a discount and their own finishes. So please note, the house has been priced to account for the condition. We will entertain reasonable offers. We are not open to lease to own offers. However, if you are a seasonal/creative professional, love the area and aren't quite ready to buy, we'd consider renting the home for some interim period. Please email any questions, and we'll get you as much detail as possible! Thank you and best of luck.
