This striking English Tudor Revival home has a rich history and backs up to the enchanting Montgomery Place neighborhood! First owned by Dr. Fredrick Yates, a prominent Decatur surgeon, this stunning landmark home has stood for nearly a century at the corner of Dennis & Wood St. Original details include the arched front door, wrought iron fence & columns, stucco turret, and built-in cabinetry. Inside has many updates including the kitchen & bathroom remodels. The beautiful staircase leads to 3 large bedrooms upstairs including a master suite with its own private sitting room. The lower level could easily be a 4th bedroom with its own full bath and walk-in closet. 2 spacious living rooms on the main level and 2 large storage rooms in the lower level provide ample flex space. Enjoy the privacy of the cobblestone back patio which feels like a private escape in the city. Contact your Realtor for more details!
