Property Description

This historic home has withstood the test of time! Built in 1909, it is located on a quiet street in Decatur's historic Alabany district, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. On the edge of the historic downtown area, it is within walking distance (less than 1/2 mile) from a new elementary school, Decatur High School, the Farmer's Market, downtown shops, restaurants and entertainment, and Delano Park with its rose garden, walking trail, playground, splash pad, and tennis courts. Approximately 1 mile from the Tennessee River Bridge, it offers a convenient commute to Madison, Huntsville - Reasearch Park and Redstone Arsenal via Interstate I565.

The 2 story home has been completely restored. The exterior siding and trim have just been painted. The 30 year roof is approximately 4 years old and 2 central units heat and cool upper and lower floors separately. The home features a new slate floor on the large front porch with ceiling fan, a driveway which allows for off street parking, and a privacy fenced back yard for children's play or entertainment. A garage, guesthouse or workshop could be built on the existing concrete pad.

The interior offers appr. 2250 sqare feet of living space with 10 ft ceilings, 3 inch crownmold and original, newly refinished Heart Pine floors throughout (except kitchen and downstairs bath which have porcellain tile).

The downstairs rooms consists of a foyer, living room, dining room, breakfast room, kitchen with laundry area, and a full bath with clawfoot tub and corner shower with dual heads and body massage. The kitchen has been completely renovated with custom cabinets and countertop, cabinet front dishwasher and french door refrigerator, and smooth top stove and range hood.

Upstairs there are 4 bedrooms and another full bath with a clawfoot tub with shower and curtain ring. The master bedroom has a fireplace which could be used with gas logs and the adjacent bedroom has a balcony overlooking the street.

This home is move in ready! The interior has just been painted throughout with neutral colors and the house has been re-wired and re-plumbed. A walk up floored attic provides seasonal storage and the walk down root cellar functions as a storm shelter.
