Whether you are familiar with the Forrest Hills community or just happen to stumble onto this charming 1951 cottage, you'll be glad you found this gem tucked into the community-centric neighborhood of Forrest Hills! Located between Avondale Estates and City of Decatur, residents of Forrest Hills carry a ton of pride for their community. Flamingo Fridays are a favorite, encouraging neighbors to gather, mingle and enjoy summer evenings together; neighborhood coffees encourage community and conversation. The Museum School is a block away, Legacy Park one mile, and in mere minutes you can be at Avondale's Tudor Village, Town Green, or downtown Decatur. The space in this home will surprise you. Step inside to discover original hardwood floors throughout and loads of natural light! The living room, dining room and renovated kitchen have distinct spaces, yet you easily flow from one room to the other. The main level also has a roomy primary bedroom, a secondary bedroom perfect for a home office, full bath and laundry/mudroom with access to the back deck and yard; two additional bedrooms and a full bath finish off the upstairs. The back yard has other surprises awaiting you! A two-level deck provides a great spot for grilling, enjoying morning coffee or sunset dinners. The outbuilding is connected to water and electricity; keep it as additional storage, or channel your creativity and transform it into a home office with a 40 step commute, she shed, pottery barn, etc. Discover the peace and quiet thought only to be found in the country, coupled with the conveniences you'd expect with Eastside, intown living--close to downtown Decatur, Emory, CDC, Marta and major highways.
