Welcome home to one of Decatur's best values - a renovated brick cottage on an oversized corner lot that delivers polished, move-in-ready living inside and exceptional outdoor space outside. Inside, a spacious light-filled floor plan flows naturally from the living room through the dining area and into the kitchen. The living room is anchored by luxury vinyl plank flooring, crown molding, a ceiling fan, and beautiful wide windows. The layout is smart: the bedroom wing sits privately behind separated from the living spaces, and the whole home feels larger than it measures. The kitchen features white raised-panel cabinetry, granite countertops, a soft grey subway tile backsplash, and a complete stainless steel appliance suite - Whirlpool range, Amana dishwasher, built-in microwave, and side by side refrigerator - make this a kitchen built for people who cook. The open dining area with crown molding and a warm gold chandelier keeps the space social and connected. Three well-proportioned bedrooms include a primary and two generous secondary bedrooms. Two updated full bathrooms and a dedicated hallway laundry closet. Step outside and the property truly distinguishes itself. A painted rear deck leads to a sweeping, concrete patio with defined zones for grilling, lounging, and relaxing beneath mature hardwoods. A wide motorized remote-control double-gate opens to a gated rear drive providing secured off-street parking. Privacy fencing and a deep wooded buffer frame the rear yard, delivering privacy and room to grow. A striking newer construction modern home next door signals exactly where this corridor is headed. 1530 Columbia Drive is the right home at the right address at the right moment.
