Offered for the first time, this custom-built, all-brick 4BR/3BA Tudor-style Craftsman presents a rare opportunity in the City of Decatur, combining timeless architecture, high-quality construction, and a setting that is nearly impossible to replicate. Meticulously maintained by its original owner, this 2008 home also features a detached studio/office and exceptional outdoor living spaces. Tucked on a quiet cul-de-sac street and adjacent to green space at Dearborn Park, this gorgeous home sits on a 250-foot-deep lot, offering a unique sense of privacy while still being just moments from Decatur’s vibrant, walkable lifestyle. The curb appeal stands out with a rocking chair front porch, professionally designed landscaping, lush yard, and thoughtfully curated plantings, setting the tone for what’s inside. Rich Brazilian cherry, tigerwood floors extend throughout the main level, upstairs landing, and into the primary suite, complemented by extensive custom millwork and 10-foot ceilings. A formal dining room flows seamlessly into a butler’s pantry with bar sink and generous walk-in pantry, leading into a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and high-end Viking and Bosch appliances. A sunny breakfast room with vaulted ceilings sits just off the kitchen, creating a light-filled, inviting space for everyday living. The large kitchen island overlooks a spacious, comfortable living area centered around a classic wood-burning fireplace, with an easy connection to the outdoor living areas. Ideal for everyday living and entertaining, this layout offers a seamless flow for hosting and gathering. The main level also includes a full bedroom and bath, currently used as a home office, offering flexibility for guests or everyday living. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite is a true retreat, featuring its own, gas fireplace, a spa-like bath with whirlpool tub, double vanities, separate shower, and a custom-designed walk-in closet. Two additional and spacious bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, while a conveniently located upstairs laundry room with sink adds everyday ease and functionality. The outdoor living truly shines here! A deep, fenced backyard is paired with a multi-tiered deck, covered rear porch with brick flooring, and multiple areas to relax, play and entertain, a setting that feels both expansive and serene. Built with efficiency and long-term comfort in mind, the home was EarthCraft certified and has seen key system updates, including a newer roof, newer HVAC system, and a tankless water heater. A 1,200-gallon underground rainwater harvesting irrigation system further enhances sustainability and thoughtful design. Located on a great street within the sought after City of Decatur school system, including Winnona Park Elementary, this home offers desired walkability to parks, PATH trails, and neighborhood favorites, along with easy access to Decatur Square, Agnes Scott College, Emory, CDC, and all of intown Atlanta. The ideal balance of small-town charm and big city access, this is Decatur living at its best!
