This magical 3-bed, 2-bath brick bungalow puts the light and landscaping of its corner lot to full advantage. A secluded lawn tucked behind a classic wrought-iron fence beckons you to spend leisure time in a rocking chair on the front porch. But there’s so much waiting inside. A large living room, with brick fireplace, leads to a formal dining room – filled with natural light – that can easily host 8. A large kitchen features copious counters, lots of cabinets, and stainless appliances. Off the kitchen is mudroom from the back door, and a bonus room for a home office, sitting room, or guest room (with fireplace and private exterior door!). A finely detailed master bedroom features an en-suite bath with standing shower, and tons of natural light from a wall of windows and glass double doors from the back deck. One of the two additional bedrooms also offers private entry to the spacious wooden deck, which is big enough to hold a grill, a large patio table and chairs to dine al fresco and enjoy the shady respite and a view of the mature trees out back of this generous, flat back yard (playset comes with the home!). Enjoy your quiet, private parking pad with alley access from E. Davis. You’re just a 5-minute walk from Winnona Park Elementary and East College and many delectable restaurants, a craft brewery, parks, playgrounds, skateboarding, and all of downtown Decatur and its Marta station
