About 561 N Glendale Avenue
Floorplan and room sizes coming soon! Discover peaceful East-side living with this nicely updated 2-bed ranch situated on a rare .86-acre lot at the end of a quiet dead-end road. Surrounded by several acres of unoccupied wooded property, this home offers outstanding privacy while still keeping you close to everything in town. Step inside to an inviting interior where much of the original plaster has been removed, insulated, and replaced with drywall. The kitchen was remodeled about 5 years ago with new cabinets, solid-surface countertops, and still features its charming original cast-iron farm house sink plus a cozy breakfast nook. A convenient Jack-and-Jill bathroom connects the two bedrooms; bedroom 2 does not have a built-in closet but has long been used as one. Roof was replaced in 2008; ages of HVAC and water heater are unknown. With its large lot, quiet setting, and thoughtful updates, this property offers a hard-to-find blend of privacy and convenience on Decatur’s East side.
