Property Description

There is a distinct magic to City of Decatur living, and this striking 2016 reinvention perfectly captures it. While its story began in 1941, a comprehensive, down-to-the-studs reconstruction of the main and upper levels has transformed this residence into a modern masterpiece defined by scale, symmetry, and an abundance of natural light. The main level welcomes you with soaring ceilings and an airy, open-concept flow that feels effortless. Sunlight streams through expansive windows, illuminating a spacious living room centered around a cozy fireplace. Transition seamlessly outdoors to the screened porch-complete with its own outdoor fireplace-offering the perfect backdrop for morning coffee or crisp autumn evenings. A versatile main-floor bedroom, which serves beautifully as a private den or guest suite, is paired with a full bathroom to complete this level. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true sanctuary. It features a dedicated sitting room, an oversized walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bathroom outfitted with dual vanities, heated floors, a walk-in shower, and a meticulously refurbished antique clawfoot tub. Two additional bedrooms offer charm and functionality, each boasting custom built-in window seats with integrated storage, sharing a well-appointed hall bath with a double vanity. The property's flexibility is where it truly shines. A lower level with a separate entrance opens up a world of possibilities-ideal for an au-pair suite, income-generating rental, or multi-generational living. For those looking to expand, the space can easily be integrated into the main home with a future interior staircase. Step across the yard to find a rare detached two-car garage topped by a fully independent carriage house. Featuring two bedrooms, a full kitchen, living space, and private laundry, it represents the ultimate luxury of space and versatility.
