Sharp four bedroom bi-level in the Shadow Addition on Decatur's Northside! The main floor features a large family room with a dining area, and the kitchen sits right off of it with sliders leading out to the back deck. Replacement windows throughout fill the home with natural light, and several new light fixtures add a fresh, updated touch. All four bedrooms are on the main level, including the primary bedroom with its own bathroom featuring a walk in shower and his and her closets. You'll love the touch of wallpaper in the bedrooms and the modern paint colors throughout! Downstairs, the walk out lower level offers a large rec room with a cozy wood burning fireplace, plus a half bath and laundry. Outside, enjoy the fenced yard. All you need to do is move in!
Cresthaven, located between West Main Street and Fairview Park, is a residential and park-adjacent Decatur neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and mature tree canopy. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the West Main Street corridor near Fairview Park, where local eateries, small-service storefronts, and everyday errands create a steady, lived-in rhythm. Fairview Park sets the tone with open lawns, walking paths, and seasonal community activity. Housing reads as practical and cohesive, with brick facades, broad front yards, and quiet side streets. The nearby Decatur Public Library adds a civic anchor for reading rooms and community programming. Millikin University and the Kirkland Fine Arts Center bring a cultural current just beyond the neighborhood edges.
