Property Description

Charming Turn-of-the-Century Victorian Cottage in Downtown Decatur. A rare opportunity to own a piece of history in prime South Candler Street location. Step into timeless elegance with this captivating Victorian cottage that blends historic charm with endless potential. This turn-of-the-century gem sits on an exceptionally large, deep lot offering both privacy and possibilities. The moment you enter, you'll be enchanted by the soaring ceilings, original windows, wide center hall, original heart pine floors and exquisite period trim work that showcases the craftsmanship of a bygone era. Six original fireplaces serve as stunning focal points throughout the home. The home has three generously sized bedrooms, including a large primary suite with ample storage, and a large laundry room. The wraparound front porch invites leisurely afternoons, while the back porch extends your living space into the large, fenced yard. A deep front yard creates a private oasis, buffering you from the street while maintaining the neighborhood's walkable charm. The expansive lot presents exceptional opportunities - ample space for a future pool, potential for an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit), or room to create your own private estate in the heart of Decatur. This home is positioned to have the best of both worlds: enjoy the tranquil, tree-lined setting of South Candler Street while being just steps away from vibrant downtown Decatur. Walk to acclaimed restaurants, boutique shopping, farmers markets, and community events - all while returning home to your historic sanctuary. This rare combination of historic charm, generous lot size, and premium location creates an exceptional opportunity. Whether you envision restoring this Victorian beauty to its original grandeur or thoughtfully updating it for modern living, the bones are spectacular, and the potential is limitless. Don't miss this chance to own a piece of Decatur's architectural heritage on one of the most desirable streets in the city.
