Did Walt Disney create this ultra-charming 4-sided brick cottage, tucked away in Decatur's Evergreen Forest? This Picture-Perfect home is on a large corner lot, has a large level fenced-in yard, a new custom deck w/tall privacy screen. This home is ideal for backyard parties and group gatherings. The home has a new roof (2020) new furnace (2021) newer A/C (2017), all new lighting, freshly painted interior & exterior and has been lovingly maintained. The original hardwoods throughout the home are beautiful. Don't let the 1,300 square feet fool you... the owner's suite is large, and the carport has been converted into a separate living space/office/Man-Cave/Girl-Grotto, w/ laundry room. This cozy, tucked-away neighborhood has easy access to Scott Blvd shops & restaurants, Home Depot, Dekalb Farmer's market, and is walkable to McLendon Elementary. The downstairs crawlspace is huge...tall enough to stand in, with loads of storage opportunities.
