Description

Unending charm awaits you at this comfortable cottage in Midway Woods! Set far off the road on a double (0.9 acre) lot, this 1940s beauty has ample room for all, both inside and out! Greet friends and family (or receive Amazon packages) on the cute front stoop then step inside to a historic wonderland. High ceilings and stunning original hardwood floors set the tone for a special visit. Boasting a decorative fireplace flanked by picture windows, the large front gathering room is perfect for entertaining. Just beyond it, the formal dining room with custom millwork beckons for dinner parties and late night conversation. Cheerful and bright, the chef’s kitchen is draped in timeless white, real wood cabinetry with updated hardware and fixtures. Rarely seen in homes of this era, the breakfast nook is a darling spot drenched in natural light with access to the oversized laundry room that doubles as a scullery or mudroom. Two options exist for a primary suite, one being the large bedroom at the front of the house complete with a generous walk-in closet. Or perhaps you prefer the privacy of the other bedroom at the back of the house with direct access to the backyard? The choice is yours! Both full bathrooms are adorned with classic tile and fixture selections. Thankfully the fun continues outside with multiple living spaces al fresco! There’s a sunny deck off the breakfast room as well as a private courtyard patio with access points from both the kitchen and dining room. Don’t miss the covered breezeway, with its quintessential Atlanta granite, connecting the two-car carport and offering wonderful outdoor storage for bikes or gardening tools. This lovely home features endless historic charm but we can’t forget all of the recent updates! Within the last three years, this house has received incredible improvements including a new roof and gutters with leaf-guard (2023), water heater (2024), crawlspace cleanup with sump pump, dehumidifier, and new piers (2024), new HVAC (2026), new attic insulation, enclosure, and duct work (2026), replaced deck boards and painted (2026) plus fresh interior paint and light fixtures throughout! There is no exaggeration when stating this precious home is truly move-in ready. Besides being an amazing homestead, this location is unmatched. Moments from all of the fun shopping and dining in both downtown Decatur (without the high CoD taxes) as well as the ever-growing Avondale Estates historic district. Less than 5 mins away is the neighborhood hub found at Dearborn Park boasting over 7 acres of greenspace including a playground, basketball court, and walking trails. Other nearby hotspots include Legacy Park (fun festivals throughout the year) and the newly completed East Decatur Greenway Path, just a short stroll away. You will be hard pressed to find a better option below $500k in Atlanta’s intown market. Welcome home to 1402 Carter Road, where life is good and living is easy!
