Property Description
WELCOME TO 161 RIDGELAND AVE +++ 5BR / 4BA IN THE CITY OF DECATUR +++ TOTALLY REBUILT IN 2016 & BEAUTIFULLY MAINTAINED +++ MOVE-IN READY This stunning EarthCraft home delivers the space, flexibility, and finishes that are hard to find at any price. What sets this home apart is how well it lives: a main-level bedroom with French doors works beautifully as a guest room or home office; the dining room is spacious enough to convert to a second sitting area; and the finished basement adds multiple flexible rooms, a full bath, a sauna, and a massive storage room that doubles as a storm shelter or wine cellar. From the screened porch to the primary suite, every inch of this home has been thoughtfully designed and meticulously maintained. +++ MAIN LEVEL: The open-concept kitchen and living room is the heart of the home — 6-burner gas stove with pot filler and vent hood, oversized island with prep sink and dishwasher, walk-in pantry, and generous counter space make this a kitchen worth cooking in. The living room features a gas fireplace, built-in storage, and doors opening to a screened porch ideal for entertaining or a quiet evening. Also on the main level: a bedroom with French doors, full bath, breakfast nook, and a mudroom with extra storage. +++ UPSTAIRS: Vaulted primary suite with oversized walk-in closet and spa-like bath — standalone soaking tub, massive walk-in shower, dual vanity, and private water closet. Two additional spacious bedrooms, each with large French door closets, share a jack-and-jill bath with dual vanities and a private toilet/shower room. Generous laundry room with utility sink and storage. +++ BASEMENT: Two finished rooms with multiple closets, full bath, and sauna — perfect as a guest suite, gym, playroom, in-law/au pair suite, and/or second living space. Large storage room doubles as storm shelter or wine cellar. +++ OUTSIDE: Screened porch with outdoor TV, covered carport with EV charger, fresh exterior paint (2026), mature trees, and beautiful landscaping. +++ THE NEIGHBORHOOD: Ridgeland Ave is a quiet, low-traffic street with a genuine sense of community — neighbors who know each other by name and look out for one another. Walkable to Decatur Square (0.8 mi), MARTA (0.3 mi), Glennwood Elementary, and all City of Decatur schools, consistently ranked among the best in Georgia — with elementary (Glennwood/Talley), middle (Beacon Hill), and high school (Decatur) all within 2 miles. Whole Foods, Sprouts, Publix, Kroger, and ALDI within a mile. Glenn Creek Nature Preserve nearby. Decatur is rated the most walkable city in Georgia, and this home delivers on that promise.
