Oakhurst, located between Downtown Decatur and Kirkwood, is a residential and walkable Decatur neighborhood with a village-style commercial strip and leafy side streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the College Avenue and East Lake Drive corridor, where patios, coffee counters, and small storefronts keep the sidewalks active. Craftsman bungalows and early 20th-century cottages set a consistent architectural rhythm, with pocket parks and front-porch streetscapes shaping daily routines. Sceptre Brewing Arts anchors the local beer-and-arts scene, while Universal Joint and Steinbeck’s Restaurant & Bar serve as long-running gathering spots. Oakhurst Park adds courts, fields, and shaded paths that connect the neighborhood’s calm blocks to its busier corners.
