407 Ponce De Leon Pl., Decatur, GA 30030

THIS is “Old Decatur” with rocking-chair front porches and sayin’ “Hey” to neighbors who pass along the tree-lined street. This is fresh strawberries and local honey at the Farmer’s Market around the corner on Wednesday afternoons. This is the “ping” of a baseball bat with a crowd erupting with cheers just beyond the back fence. This is a charming 1924 Craftsman Bungalow that lives large and proud, both inside and out. Enter the welcoming living room that begs for over-stuffed sofas, book club discussions and, of course, plenty of wine, complete with the gas fireplace that is ready to light if the temperature drops. The dining room has plenty of room to add that extra chair for unexpected guests during the holidays. Butler’s pantry holds a bounty of plates and glassware and is the gateway to the bright, gourmet kitchen with its red, Viking range, plethora of cabinetry and sizable banquet that is ideal for your famous mile-high blueberry pancakes and warm maple syrup on the weekends. The front, secondary bedroom is sunny and ample with a decorative fireplace. The primary suite will delight with a glass shower and jetted tub for winding down after an afternoon of gardening. The backyard is ‘just’ enough to enjoy but not fret over, so you can spend your time bird watching in a lounge chair with a cold glass of iced tea. Effortless access to Downtown Decatur for book and wine festivals and meeting friends at Brickstore Pub-THIS is what Decatur used to be. Something like this doesn’t come around very often. Be sure not to miss out.
