Approximately six miles east of Atlanta is the city of Decatur. Offering a traditional small-town feel with all the benefits of living in a major metropolitan area, Decatur is known for its friendly neighborhoods, tree-lined streets, lush parks, outstanding schools and quaint downtown area. Considered by many as one of the top places to live in Georgia, its popularity continues to grow. From boutiques and galleries offering indie finds and personalized service to chef-driven dining options for all tastes and budgets to its proximity to downtown, Decatur has broad appeal attracting everyone from college students to retirees and everyone in between.
Tucked into the charming University Heights neighborhood and convenient to Medlock Park and the 29-acre Clyde Shepherd Nature Preserve is 2323 Desmond Drive. An adorable two-bedroom, two-bathroom bungalow, this move-in-ready, one-level property offers an outstanding opportunity for first-time homebuyers, small families, empty-nesters or anyone looking for a property to renovate and make their own.
As you approach the home, you are greeted by a grassy, flat front yard. Take the curved sidewalk to the front door and step into the large living room. Featuring a new carpet and a picture window, this light-filled space is perfect for gathering with family and friends. On the other side of the living room is a dedicated dining area with hardwood floors and a window overlooking the front yard, a terrific spot for enjoying your morning coffee or getting a little work done when you are not in the office. Just beyond this room is a cozy kitchen. Small but functional and loaded with original charm, its two windows make it light and bright. And if cooking happens to be your passion, the adjacent dining area provides flexible options to update and expand the footprint to create a more open-concept space depending on your needs.
As you make your way to the rear of the home, you will find two good-sized bedrooms and two updated bathrooms. Each bedroom has gleaming hardwood floors, natural light, neutral colors and a closet. One even has an en suite bathroom, making it a great owner’s retreat.
Outside, the backyard is ripe with possibilities for outdoor living and entertaining. Enjoy it as it is, or bring your imagination and create your own oasis. The flat, grassy space would accommodate a large deck and patio. Add a potting shed and flower or vegetable gardens or perhaps a playhouse and a fire pit. The options are endless.
Ideally located in the sought-after Medlock Park/University Heights neighborhood, this home provides easy access to parks and trails and is just minutes to downtown Decatur and all the shopping, dining and nightlife it has to offer. It is also just around the corner from top-notch public and private schools, as well as Agnes Scott College, Emory University, the Atlanta VA Medical Center and much more.
