HUGE, HUGE YARD! BRAND NEW DREAM KITCHEN! And, this home qualifies for the Gold Community Grant -- a 4500.00 grant that can be used to buy your rate down or go to your closing costs! You found it -- a Decatur midcentury brick ranch that has been meticulously maintained and beautifully renovated on a huge, lush yard. A spacious and brand new dream kitchen features white cabinets, gray quartz countertops, a white farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, and even a coffee bar and wine rack. A large breakfast bar looks into both the dining room and the light-filled living room. The dining room then opens out onto the covered back patio and the absolutely massive backyard that has plenty of room for gardening, backyard sports, and relaxing around the fire pit. If you ever feel like heading back inside, wood floors throughout bring you to the newly refreshed bathrooms and three large bedrooms, all with plenty of closet space and tons of natural light. Enjoy your laundry in the hallway laundry closet or around back in the concrete floor "crawlspace" that has additional laundry hookups and is large enough to stand up in. (A good house hack would be to build an ADU on this huge lot and let them use this basement laundry!) This is your dream house, just minutes from parks, downtown Decatur, access to 285, and several of the newer studios. Electrical panel is brand new, exterior has just been painted, water heater is 2 years old, and the roof and HVAC have both been done by the current owner. With large townhomes being built at the end of Longshore Dr, just five houses away, watch this neighborhood soar!
