Are you looking for the perfect combination of historic charm, location, and livability? Look no further. This 1937 expanded cottage is walkable to downtown Decatur and offers so many additional living spaces: office, sunroom, upstairs loft and homework station. With light-filled rooms and a gracious flow through the home out to the deck, entertaining is a breeze. The flat, fenced yard is just right for pets, play, or a bountiful garden. While this home exudes cottage curb appeal on the outside, it lives much larger on the inside with its four spacious bedrooms and three bathrooms. The primary suite and a secondary bedroom and bathroom are located on the main floor, and two bedrooms with a shared bathroom are upstairs. Imagine living in a house with a white picket fence where you can walk to Decatur schools, shops, restaurants, and parks and return home to relax on your deck overlooking your private, shaded yard. Welcome home to 811 E. Ponce!
