762 Livingston Pl

A true intown find, this 1947 cottage on Livingston Place delivers classic character with contemporary updates. The previous owner renovated to the studs—adding insulation, new electrical, updated plumbing and HVAC—so the mechanicals and envelope feel fresh while the home retains a warm, human scale. The roof is just two years old and the AC was replaced in 2020, giving you big-ticket confidence from day one.

Inside, 923 square feet are put to efficient use: two well-proportioned bedrooms, a fully renovated bathroom, and refinished hardwood floors that run through the main rooms. The kitchen was upgraded with granite counters and updated systems; a dedicated laundry room adds real convenience for everyday living. Thoughtful touches—clean trim lines, a practical layout and durable finishes—make this an easy move-in option for first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors seeking a turnkey asset.

Outdoor space elevates the property. A welcoming front porch and enclosed screen porch extend living outdoors and create extra room for casual mornings or evening relaxation. The deep lot culminates in a large, fenced and private backyard with an outbuilding for storage or a hobby studio; parking includes a one-car garage plus two off-street spaces. The lot also offers a clear opportunity: the footprint and orientation make this house an ideal setup for a future addition—master suite and family room—should you choose to expand.

Location is the standout here. Decatur Terrace sits between Avondale Estates and Decatur, giving you seamless access to Avondale’s village scene—Banjo Coffee, My Parents Basement, The Stratford and Cremaloso are all walkable—and Wild Heaven Brewing and the Avondale Estates Town Green programming are right nearby. The Avondale MARTA station is only about a five-minute walk; Decatur Square and its restaurants, shops and festivals are roughly 1.2 miles. Legacy Park is under a mile for recreation and weekend play. This property combines the convenience of transit and village life with the privacy of a fenced backyard—rare for homes this size in the corridor.

Well-maintained systems, tasteful renovations and exceptional proximity to transit and neighborhood amenities make 762 Livingston Place a smart, livable entry into the Decatur/Avondale market. Schedule a showing to see how this cottage pairs comfortable everyday living with true intown opportunity.
