Featured in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution as a designer's dream, this completely renovated Colonial Revival masterpiece sits on a rare .2-acre corner lot in historic Adair Park with community pool and tennis courts just steps away, where award-winning City Schools of Decatur (ranked Top 5 in Georgia) meets the walkable charm of downtown Decatur’s thriving restaurant scene. This isn't just a home—it's your family's launchpad in one of Georgia's most sought-after school districts, where Decatur High School's 95% graduation rate and prestigious IB program set students up for success, while you enjoy morning coffee on your private primary suite deck overlooking a backyard designed for legendary summer gatherings. Every detail whispers "you've made it"—from the chef's kitchen with butler's pantry that flows into an entertainer's dining room, to the spa-worthy primary retreat with soaking tub, dual-head shower, skylight, and two custom walk-in closets. Four bedrooms each with their own full bath mean no more bathroom negotiations, while the versatile bonus suite above the garage (complete with full bath) becomes whatever your family needs most. Located on a peaceful cul-de-sac with enhanced privacy, this home places you in the heart of the top-rated City Schools of Decatur system—consistently ranking among Georgia's elite districts for academic excellence—while keeping downtown Decatur's restaurants, shops, and community spirit just a short stroll away. Welcome home to where exceptional schools, historic charm, and modern luxury create your family's perfect forever story.
