Property Description

Welcome to this stunning 5-bedroom, 5-bath Craftsman home, offering over 3,000 square feet of beautifully appointed living space in one of Decatur's most walkable locations, just one block from Decatur High School and Beacon Hill Middle School, a short stroll to the Decatur Square, and ~1 mile to Oakhurst Village. Built in 2015, this home showcases timeless design and exceptional quality throughout. The main level features 10-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, quartz countertops, large kitchen island, Thermador range, a butler's pantry with wine fridge, walk-in pantry, wainscoting in dining room, pocket doors, coffered ceiling in family room and a cozy gas fireplace with ceramic logs. The desirable layout includes four bedrooms upstairs and a guest bedroom with full bath on the main floor. The spacious primary suite offers two walk-in closets and a beautifully designed ensuite bath, with generous secondary bedrooms and an upstairs laundry room with sink. The fully finished terrace level adds exceptional living and entertainment space, featuring engineered hardwood flooring, a large kitchenette with refrigerator, dishwasher, sink and wine cooler, plus a full bath. With interior entry and walk out entry to driveway, this space is perfect for guests, a home office, or a short-term rental. Major system upgrades provide peace of mind: new HVAC systems for the main level and basement (2025) and HVAC systems for the upper level replaced in 2023. Additional enhancements include a fully customized walk-in pantry, an Elfa storage system in the main-level guest room/office closet, ceiling-mounted storage racks in the garage, a direct plug EV charger, and fresh interior and exterior paint. Enjoy multiple outdoor living areas including a screened porch, large rear deck with steps down to the freshly landscaped backyard, and a rocking chair front porch overlooking the fully fenced front yard. A 2-car garage completes this special property. Move-in ready and impeccably maintained, this home offers luxury, convenience, and an unbeatable location in the heart of Decatur.
