Property Description
Welcome to 304 Cotton Ave! This fully rebuilt 3-bedroom, 1-bath solid brick ranch overlooks League of Women Voters Park and offers stunning sunrise views in a quiet, no-through street setting with no side or rear neighbors. Inside, enjoy new LVP flooring, a brand-new kitchen with all new appliances, and a breakfast bar perfect for everyday dining. The layout includes a primary bedroom with a walk-in closet, a fully remodeled bathroom, two additional bedrooms (one with a walk-in closet), and a family/TV room featuring a large picture window overlooking the park. Over $146,000 in professional improvements have just been completed and are included in the purchase price, offering exceptional value and minimal maintenance costs for years to come-comparable to new construction homes costing much more. The home was completely reconstructed to new-home standards from its 8-inch solid masonry structure outward. All work was completed under a City of DeKalb building permit for "complete house reconstruction to new home standards," with four city inspections (masonry, framing/mechanical rough-in, insulation, and final occupancy). Fully inspected, city-approved, and built to modern codes, this home provides peace of mind, long-term durability, and like-new quality-all in a convenient, park-view location. A list of all improvements is included in the additional documents.
