65 Roseclair Drive sits close enough to the 2nd + Hosea corridor that a morning coffee run to PERC is a five-minute walk, but quiet enough that you would never know it. That positioning — intown energy without the noise, Oakhurst amenities without City of Decatur taxes — is what makes this address rare. The house itself earns that address.
This Cape Cod was completely rebuilt from the inside out: adding a 2nd story, new electrical, plumbing, roof, HVAC, windows, doors, water heater, crawl space encapsulation, and full structural resupport with helical piers. Hardwood floors (many still original and refinished) run throughout both levels.
On the main level, two bedrooms with a full ocean-inspired hall bath and a dedicated office give the layout flexibility from day one. A custom built-in flanks the decorative fireplace in the living room, designed as a deliberate nod to the character of the original home. A main-level flex room — currently configured as a home office — features original terracotta tile floors, crown molding, and large windows with tree canopy views.
Upstairs, the primary suite, second bedroom w/ensuite bath, and laundry are grouped for privacy from the main level. The en-suite primary bathroom features a double fluted wood vanity, dual white quartz countertops, dual arched mirrors, gold brass wall sconces, a vaulted ceiling, and a glass-enclosed walk-in shower with floor-to-ceiling vertical gray tile, a marble mosaic tile floor, and a window at shower height. A second full bathroom is finished in floor-to-ceiling cobalt blue glossy tile in the tub/shower surround, with a soaking tub, single wood vanity, white quartz countertop, and gold brass fixtures.
The fully renovated kitchen is equipped with light gray shaker cabinets, quartz countertops and backsplash, a gas range with a custom range hood, stainless steel appliances, and a window above the sink overlooking the tree canopy. A 3-seat peninsula bar opens to the adjacent dining room giving you flexibility in your daily meals.
The extended deck right off the kitchen is the perfect spot for a grill and/or cafe table and leads you down to a private backyard nature sanctuary.
