Outstanding example of 1930's-era Morningside-styled Tudor in the heart of Old Decatur is only steps away from pubs, eateries, and destination shops of Historic West Decatur Square District. Attractive price for coveted Westchester Elementary and award-wining City of Decatur Schools. The period details within the home are worth preserving yet the basic traditional floor plan affords many options for renovation inside this generous 4 bedroom home. Lovely private backyard with mature landscaping including a producing fig tree, storage/potting shed, rock-wall terraces and old school hardscape paths, fully fenced and ready for your beloved family dog. With 2 bedrooms on the main plus hall bath you can enjoy the hint of yesteryear in the high ceilings, freshly painted interior, and gleaming refinished original hardwoods. The masonry fireplace and oversized windows are architectural elements affording an elegant vibe for the living room and dining room. Lovely arched thresholds accent the common areas. Red-tiled spacious side porch sun-room can serve as a nice library or home office. The galley kitchen includes a breakfast niche offering washer/dryer hookups as used by current owner for main floor laundry. Sweet entrance foyer and heavy hardwood arched front door + coat closet lead to a cute manageable front lawn with secret garden for morning coffee. Well-lighted, stand-up cellar has concrete rodent proofing. Upstairs offers interior and exterior access, separate HVAC, and could be Airbnb potential as a two bedroom suite with hall bath and very large den with kitchenette; alternatively the large open space can easily become a master bedroom complete with serene upstairs entrance balcony with tree-top views and gorgeous light.
