Tucked away on a rare Decatur cul-de-sac, this 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath home feels like a retreat while still being minutes from everything you need. Vaulted ceilings and wide windows open the home to the trees beyond, letting in natural light and a sense of calm that makes every day feel a little brighter. Inside, cozy details invite you to settle in, from the stacked stone gas fireplace to plantation shutters to a sunny loft just begging to be your reading retreat, home office, or extra bedroom. Fresh paint, updated finishes, and well-maintained systems mean you can move right in without worry. Downstairs, you’ll find a finished industrial-style in-law suite with its own full kitchen, laundry, living room, dining area, and sleeping area accessed from interior or exterior. A flagstone path leads to its private patio, making it an inviting space for guests, extended family, or even a quiet home office tucked away from the rest of the home. Out back, the covered deck makes gathering easy in every season, while the fenced yard and low-maintenance turf keep weekends free for enjoying, not mowing. Two cheerful garden beds add color without fuss. Step beyond your door to nearby walking trails, the PATH, and Legacy Park, or head just around the corner to the brand-new Publix. All of this comes with the advantage of being right outside the City of Decatur, so you can enjoy the location with lower taxes. This isn’t just a house, it’s a soft place to land, a Decatur gem that balances comfort, flexibility, and community.
