Splendid Flowering Oasis in City of Decatur. Sweet sunny yellow cottage sits on a tree lined street. Verdant private and flower filled garden unfolds, just beyond a gate, to the Legacy Park's lake, fields, antiqued stone buildings and orchards. A serene brick courtyard invites morning coffees or afternoon tea times. The last 4 owners have been gardeners so generations of beautiful plantings thrive here. Almost a half of an acre of potential- ADU, pool, more gardens, whatever you dream up. This three bedroom two bath mid century home has an efficient layout with the right blend of original details and updates. A handsome glass paneled wood door welcomes guests. It opens into the living room, which is lit by a lovely windowed sunroom/ dining area. The kitchen is brightly lit by the skylight above and opens directly on to a lofted back deck. The master bedroom also opens on to the deck. The attic holds unrealized possibility. Going up is a natural next step in expansion.

Eateries, gyms, grocery, and 2 schools are a 10 minute walk away. This is small town living at its best, with big city amenities within arms reach.
