227 Montgomery Street

5 bdrm, 5 bath in City of Decatur Schools - You can’t get much closer to the heart of Downtown Decatur — while still being peacefully tucked on one of those idyllic little tree-studded avenues the city is famous for — than 227 Montgomery Street. Out front, the curb appeal, with a gabled roof and elevated front porch, is an homage to the early century construction that has helped define this city (though the home itself was newly built in 2015). Inside, five bedrooms, five bathrooms, and ample living space qualify 227 as ‘sprawling.’ Solid oak hardwoods, large windows, a cool palette, and custom molding define the main level. One of the two front rooms is destined to be the sort of home office where clients can be hosted, and beyond, past the light-flooded dining area and bathroom, the statement space: a fireplace-equipped great room with built-in bookshelves, access to an elevated second-floor screened terrace, and a true chef’s kitchen seemingly pulled from the pages of Southern Living. Downstairs, additional oversized spaces can adapt to your needs. Large enough to support a game room-meets-media center (the projector is already installed), an extra kitchenette adds utility. A bed/bath combo has the guest room taken care of; a separate, light-tight extra room begs to become a secluded art studio. On the top level, the main sleeping spaces, the most notable of which is the expansive primary suite, where french doors open into a Victorian accented bath with a soaking tub, double-sized shower, and stunning tilework. Ample closet space up here and a convenient laundry room. Practically, 227 Montgomery is a family home with room to spare (and, of course, access to the excellent K-12 schools the City of Decatur has to offer); emotionally… the dinner parties are already being prepared. Please note touch up painting and minor repairs will be completed before tenant move in.
