Set along a leafy stretch of Coventry Road, this John Willis Craftsman pairs a striking exterior with an exceptionally versatile interior. A broad front porch welcomes you in; beyond it, five bedrooms, four-and-a-half baths, multiple living spaces, and two options for working from home unfold across three finished levels. The main level has a wonderful sense of flow. A spacious dining room sets the stage for evenings around the table, while the kitchen and family room bring everyone together more casually. The kitchen is appointed with double ovens, a five-burner gas cooktop, generous counter space, and a large island that invites conversation while dinner comes together. In the adjoining family room, a coffered ceiling and stone fireplace add warmth and architectural character. Just off the breakfast area, the closed-in porch offers an inviting change of pace-equally lovely for coffee in the morning or dinner on a warm evening. A separate sitting room provides another place to settle in. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a spacious walk-in closet and a bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. Two additional bedrooms share a connecting bath with a double vanity. Reached by the back staircase, a fourth bedroom with its own bath gives guests a comfortable measure of privacy. With two spaces that can accommodate home offices, the floor plan also makes it easy to establish a quieter place to work or study. The finished lower level adds a den for movies, games, or relaxed evenings at home, along with a fifth bedroom and full bath that could serve beautifully as guest space or an exercise room. Substantial unfinished storage keeps the practical side of life out of sight, and a tucked-away passage between the upstairs bedrooms offers even more. At the rear, a two-car garage and additional paved space provide room for parking, play, or outdoor seating. The yard is easy to maintain, leaving more time to enjoy everything around you. Walkability is part of the appeal here. Fernbank Elementary is a short walk away, and the surrounding streets invite you out to neighborhood parks and nearby destinations. Emory, the CDC, Emory Village, and the shops and restaurants of downtown Decatur are all within easy reach. It's a home with room to entertain and room to retreat, in a neighborhood you can enjoy well beyond your own front porch.
