Description

A Rare Gem in the Heart of Decatur ... It’s not often you find a home this extraordinary — a perfect blend of historic charm and modern luxury — just a short stroll from vibrant downtown Decatur and top-rated City Schools of Decatur. Nestled on a generous 0.27-acre lot (over 11,700 sq ft), this beautifully reimagined 1920s residence offers the rare opportunity to create your own urban sanctuary — with ample space to add a pool or an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit).

It’s not often you find a home this extraordinary — a perfect blend of historic charm and modern luxury — just a short stroll from vibrant downtown Decatur and top-rated City Schools of Decatur. Nestled on a generous 0.27-acre lot (over 11,700 sq ft), this beautifully reimagined 1920s residence offers the rare opportunity to create your own urban sanctuary — with ample space to add a pool or an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit). This historic home was completely remodeled down to the studs by 2023, with no detail overlooked and only the finest materials & craftsmanship used. From the moment you step onto the inviting front porch, you’ll be drawn into a thoughtfully designed interior that radiates warmth, sophistication, and timeless appeal. The spacious living room flows effortlessly into an elegant dining area, setting the tone for stylish entertaining and relaxed everyday living. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen is a showstopper — featuring custom, high-end cabinetry, a stunning quartz waterfall island, built-in premium appliances, and heated tile flooring. A removed wall opens up the space, creating a modern and airy flow that connects seamlessly to the rest of the home. The two luxurious bathrooms are equally impressive, showcasing floor-to-ceiling imported Italian porcelain tile, top-tier bidets, heated floors, and a spa-like soaking tub with massage features in the primary suite — an oasis of calm and comfort. Throughout the home, a soft white palette, abundant natural light, and beautifully restored hardwood floors enhance the sense of brightness and serenity. Soaring beamed ceilings and preserved architectural details honor the home's historic soul, while every modern amenity ensures a truly turn-key living experience. Located just steps from McKoy Park and shaded by majestic, mature trees lining picturesque McDonough Street — complete with sidewalks and streetlights — this home offers the best of both worlds: classic Decatur charm and today's luxury lifestyle.
