Delano Park and access to schools
Just south of the city’s oldest park is the suburban neighborhood of Delano Park. “The draw for people wanting to live there would be being that close to a school and that close to the park,” says Jake Smith, a Realtor with Merithouse Realty. The neighborhood is home to Oak Park Elementary, Decatur Middle and Decatur High School, as well as a hospital. Delano Park was first created in 1887 and remains one of the focal points of Decatur. “You’re within walking distance of a water park,” says Smith. “But you cannot walk between Delano Park and Point Mallard Park.” Point Mallard Park sits along the Tennessee River about 4 miles from Oak Park Elementary.
Delano Park is a residential neighborhood centered around its namesake.
Delano Park features a beautiful rose garden.

Older homes next to Delano Park
Delano Park mainly consists of bungalow and ranch-style homes, although newer construction is slowly beginning to be built. There are some sidewalks through the neighborhood and homes have driveways with carports or attached garages. There is a little street parking in homes that have shorter driveways and either no garages or some carports. “Houses that border the park are very similar to the historic district, but you live there without paying the historic fee,” says Smith. “They’re not considered historic, but they are old and well-kept.” Bungalows are generally the oldest homes, built primarily in the 1940s and 50s and can range in price from $120,000 to $250,000. Ranch-style homes can range from $169,000 to $340,000 and New Traditional homes will be the highest priced, ranging from $315,000 to $444,931. There’s a mixture of mature trees and smaller landscaping in front yards.

Oldest city park with a rose garden and a park along the Tennessee River
Delano Park is the oldest in the city, first created in 1887. The park is home to classic park offerings like a playground, walking paths and athletic fields. The park’s Rose Garden was originally planted in 1934. “Right now it’s something that the city is trying to make better,” Smith says. To the south of the neighborhood is Pop Oliver Park, a smaller green space with a playground and tennis court. Point Mallard Park sits along the Tennessee River and covers over 700 acres. The park has an 18-hole course, 217 full hookup camping sites, and a seasonal waterpark. The area also has a variety of athletic fields.

Along U.S. Highway 31 are a variety of chain businesses, including O’Reilly Auto Parts, McDonald’s and Subways.
