This Faurote-built ranch on the outskirts of Decatur in Briarwood on a quiet cul-de-sac street has 1,578 square feet, 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, an attached garage, and tons of updates in recent years. These updates include extensive remodeling of the interior as well as a new roof in 2013. There is a split-bedroom floorplan, with a large master suite on one side of the house and the additional nice-sized bedrooms on the other. This master bedroom has about 240 square feet, with two separate areas open to one another. Subsequently, the 17' by 14' dimensions listed on here reflects a number that is equally the correct square footage, but is not the actual dimensions. One area is set up as a den with a cathedral ceiling, and the other as the bedroom with a trey ceiling. This master suite also has a walk-in closet and also a bath with a dual vanity sink, a jetted garden tub, and a separate ceramic tile shower. The two other bedrooms are nice sized, both with dimensions of about 12' by 10'. The family room has recessed lighting, a brick gas log fireplace, a built-in bookcase, and a patio door that leads out to the patio and back yard. The kitchen appliances all stay. There is a formal dining room off one side of the kitchen, and a breakfast nook area on the other side. Flooring in the home includes hardwood floors in the foyer, wood laminate in the master bedroom, ceramic tile in the kitchen, baths, and breakfast nook, and newer carpet through the rest of the home. Other features and amenities include 6 panel doors, a 2-car attached garage with finished walls and ceilings and pull-down attic stores with some attic storage, a 200 amp electrical service, central air, a gas furnace, ceiling fans in all bedrooms, and a smooth ramped curb from the street to the paved driveway great for low-lying vehicles that scrape bottom entering other driveways. The storage shed is negotiable. If you want it, please ask for it in an offer, otherwise the homeowner has a relative he wants to give it to. This home is in an area where 100% financing is available through USDA.
