THIS is “Old Decatur”… with rocking-chair front porches, looking out to the shady street, waving HI to those who pass. This is homemade lemonade stands. This is slip-n-slides with all your friends. This is cookouts with hot dogs and hamburgers, and don’t forget the homemade vanilla ice cream for dessert. This is a beautiful 1928 Craftsman Bungalow that lives large for you with one-level living and plenty of room to spread out, both inside and out. Enter to find the welcoming living room with fireplace, window seats and built-in shelving that begs for overstuffed sofas and lots of laughing and story-telling. The kitchen, renovated in 2021, allows for all to belly-up to the breakfast bar and be part of the action, while eat-in space close-by brings you all together for homework, meal-prep or just a piece of chocolate cake. The dining room houses the entire crowd with its “heart of the home” ownership with more built-ins and those great, high ceilings. The sunroom, adjacent, is a perfect reading nook, office or fourth bedroom. With access from both the kitchen and the primary suite, the screened porch is an entity all its own. Its dramatic, arched ceiling and three-sides of green views just may have you considering living here for nine months of the year…THIS is what Decatur used to be. Something like this doesn’t come around very often. Be sure not to miss out.
