Property Description

Charming from the curb and backed by Shoal Creek hardwoods, this City of Decatur cottage is more than it appears: a full 4 bedroom, 2 bath home plus a self-contained 2 bed / 1 bath apartment, in one of intown Atlanta's most walkable and sought-after neighborhoods. The main house opens into a living room with refinished hardwood floors and crown molding, flowing through an arched doorway into a dedicated dining room - a layout that feels both classic and livable. The kitchen has gas cooking, stainless appliances, and a walk-in pantry. Step out back and you're on a private deck- ready for summertime grilling. Two bedrooms and a full baths on the main level. Upstairs, two vaulted dormer bedrooms with tree-level views, a full bath, and a dedicated laundry room. The lower level is a fully self-contained 2 bed / 1 bath walk-out apartment with a private entrance, windows on all four sides, gas kitchen, in-unit laundry, and a sweet beadboard bath - no interior connection to the main house, brand new HVAC in 2026. Live upstairs, rent downstairs, and let the numbers work in your favor in one of the most sought-after zip codes in metro Atlanta. Fresh paint inside and out. Newer roof and HVAC on the main level. Winnona Park and Legacy Park are within a short walk. Avondale Estates' newly pedestrian-friendly downtown is right around the corner. Two MARTA stations within easy reach. City of Decatur schools throughout. Flood insurance in place at $1,200/year- house has never flooded. Generous off-street parking in rear. Across the street, the Decatur DDA is developing 252 S. Columbia into workforce housing near the Avondale MARTA corridor. --- That's your two-listing strategy - same property, two different buyer conversations. Ready to push both to Gmail?
