A rare opportunity to own a quintessential circa-1920 Craftsman, where historic charm meets thoughtful renovations. Set on a rare half-acre lot in the heart of Oakhurst, this home is rich with original details and modern updates. From the moment you step onto the expansive front porch, framed by striking granite columns, you’ll feel the timeless character of this home. Inside, soaring ceilings, seamless heart pine floors, and three fully restored masonry fireplaces create an inviting atmosphere filled with warmth. Craftsman charm abounds, with exquisite leaded glass built-ins flanking the living room fireplace, original two-panel wood doors with brass hardware, and a central dining room adorned with elegant wainscoting and plate molding. Throughout the home, meticulous craftsmanship and historic integrity shine, from the detailed millwork to the seamless blend of old and new. Offering a flexible layout, the main level includes two bedrooms and 1.5 baths, while the upstairs primary suite provides a private retreat with an additional bedroom and bath. Situated on a rare half-acre lot, the large, level backyard is shaded by a stunning water oak—an anchor for gatherings and cherished neighborhood traditions. Just 307 steps from Oakhurst Elementary, this home has been a place where community thrives. The front porch invites conversation with neighbors, while the backyard has long been a gathering spot beneath the towering oak. Stroll to Oakhurst Village, Decatur’s best restaurants, and multiple parks, all while enjoying the close-knit spirit of this beloved neighborhood. From PorchFest to Mead Road Mardi Gras, this is more than a home—it’s a piece of Oakhurst’s history, ready for its next chapter.
