3789 CONLEY DOWNS Lane, Decatur, GA 30034

Over the years, a lot of love has gone into this three-bedroom, two-bath, two-story home. Statement elements drive the aesthetic home, like the stunning contemporary color palette combined with darker wood tones in the common spaces, new carpeting in the bedroom suites, and cosmetic updates in the kitchen and bathrooms. Not to mention gabled curb appeal in a freshly painted hue that accents the long lawn and surrounding evergreens. It's playful, that's for sure — and at just about 1,500 square feet, there's plenty of space for function to line up with form. Tastefully upgraded late-century construction has lent itself well to the modularity of the main level, where the ample living space leads into the formal dining area (both, again, with all that light, courtesy of west and east exposures, respectively). Next is the galley-style kitchen, with ample counter space and stainless appliances (like the beefy five-burner gas range). But it's the family area where you'll spend most of your time; there's a "just-add-the-flatscreen" readiness factor, complete with a fireplace and access to the backyard through the sliding glass doors. Entry to the finished two-car garage can be found here, too, through the dedicated laundry room. Upstairs, a central landing leads to the trio of bedrooms boasting the same modern palette as downstairs but with soft plush carpet throughout these spaces. Two share a full bath; the primary suite has a segmented ensuite. There's a surplus of closet space, with a pair of closets in the main bedroom. Outside, the neighborhood is just lovely. Quiet. Plenty of trees and far enough from the main road to feel comfortable letting the kids loose on bicycles. Some good privacy, too: a bank of old-growth trees gives some buffer room from the neighbors; dog owners will be happy to know that they're just a privacy fence away from having a yard for Fido to sniff around in the morning. And still conveniently located. It's only a few miles to the southeast edge of the Perimeter, and from there, to anywhere you need to be; for the day-to-day stuff, the Flat Shoals Crossing Shopping Center is just minutes via quiet surface streets. And you could not get a better design for your long-term use.
