It’s all about proximity with this 3-bed, 2-bath home in Decatur’s Valley Brook Estates. Large windows put you practically in touch with the natural world, including a picnic-friendly front yard secluded by mature growth. All the amenities of downtown Decatur, Toco Hills, Downtown Tucker, and I-285 are in easy strike. Inside, enjoy modern farmhouse charm and function: rich hardwood flooring in common spaces and the master suite, a gas fireplace in the living room, a dining space for up to 8, and a kitchen that’s loaded with granite-top cabinets and a floating butcher-block island. A cute bar space, and glass doors that open the dining room to the large back deck both aid in entertaining. The master suite features a large walk-in closet with built-in shelving, a full bath, and window views of swaying bamboo in the back yard. The other two bedrooms share a full bath in the hall, where there’s also a spacious laundry closet. The large, level back yard has a built-in fire pit and a storage shed, and there’s plenty of space for a garden. Nearby communal spaces include a neighborhood church courtyard and its sprawling green, Lindmoor Woods’ pool and playground, and even a tiny library that serves as a gathering point for neighbors.
