Overview
This property offers two fully self-contained residences on one lot: a 2 bed, 1 bath apartment with a private entrance and no interior connection, plus a 4 bed, 2 bath main house. The apartment includes windows on all four sides, a gas kitchen, in-unit laundry, and a beadboard bath, with separate metering for gas and electric. The main house features refinished hardwood floors, crown molding, an arched doorway into a dedicated dining room, gas cooking, and a walk-in pantry, along with a private deck overlooking mature trees. Interior improvements include fresh paint inside and out, refinished floors and updated finishes in the home, and a newer roof and HVAC on the main level. Off-street parking is available in the rear, with planned/visualized rework for the backyard layout.
Located at 255 S Columbia Drive in Decatur, the property is positioned for convenient access to local schools, including Talley Street Upper Elementary and Winnona Park Elementary, and City of Decatur schools generally. It is also described as minutes to Avondale MARTA, Winnona Park, Legacy Park, the PATH, and Avondale Estates’ walkable downtown. Additional context noted in the remarks includes workforce housing development by the Decatur DDA near the MARTA corridor.
The configuration suits an owner-occupant looking to live in the main house while using the apartment to help offset expenses, or an investor seeking market-rent upside based on the property’s separate utilities and functional, independent layouts. With updates and separate living areas, it presents a practical option in a supply-constrained rental environment.
