316 Madison Ave, Decatur, GA 30030

Some homes are simply built. This one was conceived. Designed and developed by two architects for their own residence, 316 Madison Avenue is a rare expression of modern design, sustainable living, and intentional community, set on one of Decatur's most beloved streets. From Porchfest to the Madison Avenue Derby, this address puts you at the heart of everything that makes Decatur extraordinary. The main level opens as a light-filled, architecturally refined open plan, designed the way architects actually live: with flow, function, and beauty in harmony. Sustainable materials and energy-efficient design are woven throughout, reflecting a genuine commitment to responsible building. Upstairs, the primary suite and two guest bedrooms offer a classic, livable layout elevated by quality at every turn. The lower level delivers rare flexibility: two rooms with independent exterior access that can serve as a guest suite, teen suite, home office, or potential efficiency apartment for rental income or multi-generational living. Outside, a large fully fenced yard offers privacy on a quiet dead-end street. Two blocks from MARTA, a dog park, and a short stroll to Oakhurst Village, Kirkwood, and East Lake Village, with top-rated Decatur City Schools rounding out an address that truly has it all.

It’s a story as old as time - two architects discover a property on a great street that needs a lot of love and attention. Their hard work results in a modern showplace with state-of-the-art features that create a sustainable, conscientious home that will excite you from the moment you arrive. Travel the cedar-planked pathway and enter the open-concept main-level living space with stranded bamboo flooring, panoramic windows and natural architectural beams accenting the high ceilings. The kitchen has reflective glass cabinetry, honed quartz countertops and indestructible sustainable flooring. French doors lead out to a partially covered cedar deck, allowing plenty of lounge and grilling space overlooking the professionally landscaped backyard and picturesque city waterway. Head upstairs to the dramatic, two-story, open staircase for the primary and two additional bedrooms. The primary bedroom has a breathtaking vaulted ceiling and treehouse views of the backyard from three expansive windows. The three full bathrooms have radiant floor heat to keep you comfortable when the temperature drops. The terrace level is an ideal recreation room with a large bonus space and access to the lower-level heat-kilned ash deck and flat backyard. Two more additional bedrooms and a full bathroom are found here. Stand out from the conventional and unimaginative. You will love how unique, modern and inviting your home is when you make this your own.
