About this home

Set behind a white picket fence beneath a canopy of mature hardwoods, this Ponce de Leon Heights cottage pairs timeless character with inviting indoor and outdoor living spaces. Downtown Decatur is close by, with City of Decatur schools within walking distance. Arched doorways, hardwood floors, and abundant natural light create a warm welcome throughout. A stone fireplace with gas logs and built-in shelving anchor the living room, which opens to a sunroom, an ideal spot for morning coffee or a quiet afternoon with a book. The separate dining room with garden views opens to the kitchen, which features white cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, and flows into a keeping room with built-in storage and a laundry area. The main-level primary suite includes a walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom with a shower and water closet. A separate powder room serves guests. Upstairs, a spacious 24-foot bedroom, full bath, and adjoining sitting room offer flexibility for guests, a home office, or a creative studio. A screened porch with a vaulted ceiling, skylights, and a ceiling fan extends the living space outdoors for much of the year. Below, a stone patio overlooks the private, fully fenced backyard, where lush plantings and a rock-lined water feature create a peaceful garden setting. A storage shed adds everyday convenience. With classic cottage details, versatile spaces, and a tranquil backyard, this home offers a private retreat close to the shops, restaurants, and community life of Downtown Decatur.
