Located in the Historic MAK District, this charming Craftsman Bungalow feels like sipping iced tea on the front porch and warm blueberry pie. This is the way Old Decatur comes through with classic red brick and a large back deck under a shaded, lush, oak canopy. Step inside to find the impressive high ceilings, elongated windows and warm hardwoods that capture the essence of a timeless era. The living room boasts a brick, wood-burning fireplace that stands as a sentinel, ready to provide cozy warmth when the temperature drops. The adjacent sunroom could be an ideal office or cozy sitting nook with built-in shelves and exposed brick. The expansive dining room is perfect for accommodating a holiday crowd and seamlessly connects to the living room. The kitchen features classic black and white with a copper accented backsplash. It offers convenient access to the lower deck for grilling and al fresco dining, as well as the fire pit, which leads to the detached garage. Moving to the second floor, you'll find a relaxing retreat with an additional bonus room that includes the perfect beverage station, complete with a wet bar. The oversized primary bedroom includes a sitting area, a large, full bath with antique, claw-footed tub, tiled shower and walk-in closet with additional lighted shoe-shelves. Dual French doors lead to the upper back deck providing heavenly views of the surrounding tree canopy. Want more surprises? Across the backyard and above the two-car garage, you will discover the very appealing carriage house apartment (ADU) featuring a full kitchen, living room, bedroom and bathroom. It offers ultimate privacy for hosting guests, an ideal home office/studio or home gym. So many options! 252 Kings Hwy is a home that will continuously surprise and delight you with its unique features and warm, welcoming ambiance. It's an opportunity to experience the warmth and grace of Old Decatur living and is just moments to Decatur's highly-ranked schools.
