About this home

Fantastic Opportunity in the active Forrest Hills neighborhood. This lovely renovated 3 bedroom 2 bath home has a backyard that makes you feel like you’re in the privacy of the mountains but with the conveniences of downtown Avondale Estates and Decatur. You’ll love the hardwoods as you enter the natural light filled living space with fireplace and built-ins. The kitchen is located in the heart of the home opening to both the dining area and living room. Just beyond the living room you’ll love the office/library space perfect for working or reading. The 2 secondary bedrooms have great space for guests, family, or whatever your lifestyle needs are. The owner’s suite is located on the back giving you plenty of privacy. You’ll love the en suite bath with double vanity, separate garden tub & shower and quartz countertop. The backyard is an oasis. You will love the ramada, additional deck, fire pit, lighting, fruit trees, garden, catio, AND bocce ball court. Because of the great attention to detail in design, this multi use backyard is low maintenance. The yard is well suited for entertaining, relaxing and gardening. In short, 1056 has it all: renovated home, great flow inside spilling out to spectacular backyard, and just up the street vibrant community options. Welcome Home.
