208 Ridgeland Avenue

Decatur, GA 30030

Masterful True Mid-Century sprawling, original ranch. Re-imagined preserving her vintage vibe chic nature (even accented with nifty interior lattice) plus enhancing the original is a handsome master wing thoughtfully designed for nature lovers, featuring oversized sunroom-styled family room spilling onto spacious entertainer's deck. All nestled under old growth Oak tree with classic rope swing, this wonderful corner lot is unusually private as side street gracefully ends at entrance to Decatur's fabulous Glenlake Nature Preserve. Think Thoreau's Cabin at Walden Pond when you discover the literary, 'she-shed' studio within spacious fenced backyard. The main house's central space is a wonderful painted Pickwick-paneled dining room which is wide open to a family room with French doors and the DR also connects with an airy kitchen with central butcher block breakfast bar. Open upper cabinets in the kitchen suggest the simple life and delightfully surround the chef's workspace featuring counters of original Formica. A Kitchen door opens to a roomy screened porch underneath the original connected carport (on-point for Electrical car enthusiasts) which doubles for festive alfresco dining. The original living room features a sun-filled view of the expansive front lawn and Ridgeland's ridged streetscape, as well as the adorable floating bookshelf built-ins whose geometrical design seems afloat and afront a unique interior lattice built-in screen. The open airy space establishes a semi-private multi-task zone for those work-from-home laundry-duty days. The original hall bath delights with period black and green tile and the two original bedrooms are handsome sized with good natural light. The inviting corner is the envy of the community, and her active pedestrian hipster set, as the lot lies so near the park entrance and is oversized and conducive for inviting neighbors to linger for a glass of cheer. Holiday priced at under 700k...Run don't walk to close in time for Spring semester within the ever-adored City of Decatur school system.
