Description

The mid-century developers who subdivided the plot of land now known as Chevelle Lane kept certain timeless aspects of quintessentially Atlantan aspiration close to heart: beyond the curb appeal of lovingly maintained lawns and quaint facades lay well parceled, larger-than-expected layouts that took the comforts of families into account; when the kids weren't running around the backyard, parents were happy that they had access to exceptional nearby schools; everything had a place to be kept; the...The mid-century developers who subdivided the plot of land now known as Chevelle Lane kept certain timeless aspects of quintessentially Atlantan aspiration close to heart: beyond the curb appeal of lovingly maintained lawns and quaint facades lay well parceled, larger-than-expected layouts that took the comforts of families into account; when the kids weren't running around the backyard, parents were happy that they had access to exceptional nearby schools; everything had a place to be kept; the neighbors were cool; it was close enough to town to be convenient; only just off-the-beaten-path enough to be cozy.  These aspects remain in 426 Chevelle Lane, an impeccably updated four bed/two bath Catskill-reminiscent cottage that's only five lots off Candler Road, right at the southernmost tip of the City of Decatur. The Square, with its incredible entertainment and dining options, is less than two miles away, as are the celebrated K-12 offerings Decatur has become renowned for.  Inside, a room-to-room floor plan takes advantage of the near 1,700 square feet of hardwood, tastefully maintaining the accents that make properties like this one perennially desirable. The south-facing living room (with its absolute statement of a fireplace) leads to a glistening, subway-tiled kitchen that anchors an intimate dining area and a family room that's just flooded with light from the west-facing French doors. The result is a streamlined, organic, common sense floor plan that adapts perfectly to modern living. The owner's suite, adequately spaced from the other three bedrooms, feeds into the primary bath, replete with a marble-topped double vanity and a walk-in closet. Along the east face of 426, a trio of bedrooms each contains enough storage space to be functional (for what it's worth, bedroom No. 2 is already nicely outfitted to be the new home office). Finally, the second bath rounds everything out.  Out back, there's the kicker. Oh, for the days when land in Atlanta — the City of Decatur in particular (!) — was plentiful. However, not a concern here: leading off the tin-covered back porch is a pine-strewn privacy-fenced yard measuring nearly a half-acre. So if you don't mind throwing your arm out playing catch, you'll spend a lot of sunsets out here.  And then, circling back around to the location. Atlanta is one of the most popular markets in the country right now. If you ask around, living within the boundaries of the City of Decatur is about as good as it gets for buyers who are in it for the long term. 426 Chevelle Lane allows for all of this — at a price point that is rarely, if ever, seen anymore.  Priced to bring immediate attention. Serious inquiries only.
