Forget the cookie-cutter renovations. 177 Garden Lane is a vibrant, designer-inspired sanctuary offering meticulously maintained living space in the heart of the City of Decatur. From the moment you see the classic red brick exterior and the updated front door, you know this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is special. Step inside to find gleaming hardwood floors and rooms drenched in personality. The thoughtful layout includes a large living room with ample natural light, a formal dining room that makes a statement with deep sapphire walls, and a sunroom featuring a cobalt ceiling with peaceful garden views - the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee. The residence offers three bedrooms, including a primary suite boasting an updated bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower, vertical teal subway tile, and high-end brass fixtures. The guest bedrooms are filled with natural light and offer the perfect flexibility for a dedicated home office or guest rooms. Practicality meets style with a large attic and a spacious, daylight unfinished walk-out basement featuring a one-car garage - both perfect for all your storage needs. The outdoor experience is equally impressive, featuring a large, private backyard with a freshly painted deck designed for hosting, gardening, or simply relaxing in a quiet city retreat. The high-value infrastructure updates provide a level of move-in readiness rarely seen. The entire interior has been freshly painted throughout, complemented by a new roof, a new HVAC system, and a full suite of updated kitchen appliances. The location is truly unparalleled. You are just blocks from both the vibrant Decatur Square - with its award-winning array of chef-driven restaurants and boutique retail - and the local YMCA. The neighborhood’s community spirit is perfectly captured by Garden Lane Park located directly across the street, a local gathering spot for neighbors to connect and for the kids to play. Families will love the proximity to Westchester Elementary, as well as the nearby park, Hidden Cove. With MARTA and major interstates like I-20 and I-285 just a short distance away, commuting is a breeze, providing quick connections to the airport, Emory University, the CDC, and Downtown Atlanta. This residence is a rare find that seamlessly balances 1940s soul with modern performance.
