Looking for a little piece of paradise? Located on a dead-end street with a huge fenced yard, this serene retreat is the the one you've been looking for if you're looking for some peace and quiet while still being close to the action. The classic Southern front porch welcomes you home, and is the perfect place to enjoy an afternoon beverage with friends. Step inside to find the first of two large living rooms, a warm and inviting eclectic space to curl up and watch tv or host friends. The second living room has ample natural light with vaulted ceilings and skylights which leads to the large kitchen with tons of counter space and cabinets. Off the living room, you'll find the first of three bedrooms, your own personal tiki bar. If you're not into hosting cocktail parties - you could use the space as a home office, guest room, playroom, the options are endless. Rounding out the downstairs is another large bedroom and guest bath that's been updated with sleek white subway tile, brass accents, and textured wallpaper. Upstairs you'll find the private owner's suite. Situated among the trees, it truly feels like a private treehouse escape! Updated bathroom with soaking tub, dual vanities, large shower, and walk-in closet with custom closet system. Outside you'll find a large deck and fully-fenced yard with plenty of space to grill, garden, & entertain. Convenient location close to East Lake (Perc, Poor Hendrix, Hippin Hops Brewery), Kirkwood, and downtown Decatur.
