A true “core rebuild” in Decatur that looks charming on the outside and behaves like a much newer home where it counts (so you can stop bracing for the next surprise).This 3-bedroom, 3-bath house has been renovated at a level that goes far beyond cosmetic updates. The work started where it matters most: behind the walls and under the floors. Enjoy all-new interior plumbing, new electrical wiring with a robust 200-amp panel, and an efficient Rheem heat pump paired with new heating and cooling ducts. In other words, the big-ticket systems have already been handled—so your weekend plans can stay “brunch and parks” instead of “hardware store and panic.” Inside, you’re greeted by beautiful real oak hardwood floors and a crisp, cohesive finish package that feels both fresh and timeless. New six-inch baseboards, updated door and window trim, and crown molding add a clean, tailored look throughout. And because lighting makes everything better, the home is loaded with all-new fixtures, including recessed lighting indoors, soffit-mounted exterior floods, and corner floodlights that quietly say, “Go ahead, arrive home late—this place has you covered.” The chef’s kitchen is the kind of upgrade you’ll actually use every day. You’ll find white well planned cabinetry, thoughtful storage details like lazy Susan corner cabinets, a designer sink, and quality GE appliances. The showstopper, though, might be the generous quartz counter space—about 26 linear feet—ready for meal prep, holiday spreads, or that ambitious baking phase you swear is coming back. A pocket door connects the kitchen to a practical mudroom and laundry area, complete with a mop sink—because real life is messy and this home planned accordingly. Bathrooms are equally dialed in: two are completely new, and the third has been updated, creating a layout that works for everyday routines, guests, or anyone who appreciates having more than one place to get ready at the same time. The improvements continue outside with a spacious deck overlooking the level and fenced backyard. You’ll love the character of cedar shutters, new exterior doors, new gutters, and an upgraded water line to the street. The gutter system has also been thoughtfully piped underground to move water away from the house—one of those unglamorous details that makes a big difference over time. Storage and access are handled with care, too. The attic is loaded with insulation and includes a floored corridor for easy access—perfect for seasonal items and long-term storage. Down below, the crawlspace is largely concrete, exceptionally clean, fitted with lighting, and protected by a strong vapor barrier. It’s the kind of “under the hood” attention that signals the renovation was done with long-term ownership in mind. Outside, the lot is top-tier: level in both the front and back, with the home sitting slightly above street level at the top of a gentle rise. That elevation adds curb presence, helps with drainage, and gives the property an easy, open feel—no awkward slopes to mow and no gymnastics required to set up a backyard gathering. Location is the finishing touch. You’re near Decatur, Toco Hills, and major nearby employment and healthcare centers, plus just a short walk to the new Lulah Hills development and a future access point to the South Peachtree Creek Greenway. Convenience, connection, and community—without giving up the comfort of a quiet residential setting.
