This charming ranch in Decatur perfectly maximizes space – with luxury inside and open-air opportunities in back – all in an unassuming 3-bed, 2-bath space redesigned with contemporary flow and top-tier finishes. Step through a meticulously landscaped front yard, through the front door, and be wowed by a large living/dining area, with recessed lights and a modern chandelier ready to shine on a dining table. The open floor plan offers sight lines to the kitchen’s pass-through bar. Resplendent hardwood floors are underfoot throughout, whether you’re prepping a gourmet meal in the kitchen, having a drink with friend in the living area, or relaxing in a master bedroom that’s been crafted from a gorgeously converted garage. The master is a showpiece, with charming brick walls left in place and a luxurious en-suite bath with double vanities and a spacious, glass shower that’s finished in marble and complete with stone seat. The open-concept kitchen has gleaming white cabinets for lots of storage, granite counters, a lovely floating vent over the gas stove, and Energy Star stainless appliances. Step to a spacious back deck overlooking the large fenced back yard for al-fresco breakfasts or grill-to-table dinners. This retreat is nestled in a quiet neighborhood d just a few blocks from outdoor amenities like Starmount-McAfee Park and East Lake Golf Club, and so close to East Lake, Downtown Kirkwood and Decatur Square.
