Originally built in 1925, this meticulously maintained and thoughtfully expanded bungalow is the epitome of Decatur living. Step into the original part of the home, the living room with its original fireplace, tiled sunroom, and dining room. Beyond the dining room beats the heart of the home: the chef's kitchen with freshly-painted custom cabinetry and AGA appliances. Entertaining is seamless as you continue through the light-filled family room with fireplace and out onto the wide screened porch. Overlooking an easy-care saltwater pool and manicured landscape below, the screened porch has room for dining and relaxing. Upstairs find the primary suite, two secondary bedrooms, laundry, bonus area for another office or homework station, and a sprawling Ipe wood deck overlooking the back yard. Retreat to your spacious and sunny primary suite including an office/sitting room. The spa-like primary bathroom and walk-in closet complete this oasis. With inspections performed, repairs made, and fresh paint throughout, this home has been lovingly prepared for its next owner. Walkable to shops and restaurants in Oakhurst, Kirkwood, and 2nd & Hosea, City of Decatur schools, and numerous parks, this home and location are the best Oakhurst has to offer!
