209 Hampshire Avenue | Lenox Place Decatur

Private Zoom or other live virtual tours are available for showing this lovingly renovated, maintained & cared-for home, in one of the best neighborhoods, not only in Decatur, but in the whole Metro Atlanta area. This 100+ year old European Country Cottage is in a safe, quiet, walkable, bikeable location (one block from the Path that goes from downtown Atlanta to Stone Mountain). This home is the only house on this quiet non-cut-through street and is easily accessible to all of the bike lanes in Decatur.  There is no driveway — one could probably be added, but since it is the only house on the street, parking for 2 cars is never a problem! The old charm of the cottage was kept (solid oak hardwood floors, 3 season front porch, claw-foot tub) while adding an open concept kitchen / living room area, breakfast bar, updated bath, laundry closet, & storage area in the back. Important safety & energy efficiency improvements were made as well (brand new roof, energy efficient windows, attic insulation, updated electrical & plumbing, low-maintenance hardieplank siding, gas furnace, cooktop, & water heater). 25 distinct perennial plantings were added in the front and side yards, planted with the help of a Master Gardener neighbor! Both middle and high school are less than a mile away! Short walk to downtown Decatur (restaurants, shops, groceries, library, recreation centers, Adair Park, the Toy Park, 2 dog parks, the East Lake Marta Station, Avellino’s Pizza / Revolution Donuts / Ale Yeah, and Oakhurst Village. Enjoy Great neighbors, Private fenced area in the back (courtyard), in this Small house that “plays big”!!! No grass cutting, low-maintenance yard and exterior. No HOA fees!
