About this home

SELLER OFFERING A 2-1 INTEREST RATE BUYDOWN! With an acceptable offer, seller is willing to provide a credit toward a 2-1 temporary interest rate buydown. Using a 7.5% interest rate and 5% down as an example, this could reduce the buyer's principal & interest payment by approximately $225/month during the first year and $115/month during the second year! Ask your agent and lender for details. Terms, eligibility and actual savings will depend on buyer's financing. Spacious full brick home located in Decatur’s historic West End offering 5 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a great blend of character and updates! You’ll love the engineered wood flooring throughout the main level along with the freshly painted kitchen and cabinets that give the space a bright, refreshed feel. The beautifully updated sunroom is a standout feature with abundant natural light and a skylight creating the perfect space to relax year-round. Outside, enjoy the low-maintenance Trex front deck and mature West End setting. Major updates include a new roof in 2024, HVAC in 2017, and water heater in 2025 for added peace of mind. Seller has also pre-inspected the home to help make your move even easier. Conveniently located near Kiwanis Park, walking and biking paths, and Fairview Park!

About West

End

West End, located between downtown Decatur and Fairview Park, is a residential and historic Decatur neighborhood with tree-lined blocks and early-20th-century architecture. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Merchant Street corridor near Millikin University, where coffee counters, casual eateries, and campus foot traffic set a steady daytime rhythm. Staley Field and the Kirkland Fine Arts Center act as cultural anchors, pairing collegiate sports with performing-arts nights. Housing leans toward classic Midwestern forms—bungalows, brick two-stories, and porch-front homes—set on walkable streets. Green space and ballfields shape the edges, while the university adds a bookish, arts-forward undertone.
