Hard to find smaller all-brick bungalow in the City of Decatur, an amazing value with a HUGE .4 acre lot on a quiet, friendly street. The backyard gate literally walks out to the fruit tree orchard at Legacy Park, the 77 acre greenspace, home to festivals, the arts, and a beautiful lake with a walking path around it. Great starter or downsizing home with original hardwoods and high ceilings, or take the roof off and build up or back. Gorgeous deep yard is fenced, private, and level with plenty of space for entertaining, gardening, even a pool. LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION! Walk one mile to downtown Decatur, around the corner to restaurants, breweries, art studios, top-rated Winnona Park Elem and just one block to Talley Street Elem, Legacy Park, E Decatur Greenway Path, and the mixed-use near the Avondale MARTA train station. This property has enormous potential and several new construction homes over $1.5M have recently been built on this street. Lot may support a future Accessory Dwelling Unit (imagine a cottage for grandparents or AirBnB!). Incredible potential! 1-car garage doubles as a rec room. Unfinished waterproofed basement is great for storage.
