The Wall Street Journal ran a story on Friday about the Indigo Girls’ Emily Saliers Decatur home, reflecting on her large, enviable kitchen, recording studio and 2,000 bottle wine cellar. As for Decatur itself, here’s what Saliers has to say…
Previously living in the Druid Hills section of Atlanta, Ms. Saliers said she decided to move to Decatur about a decade ago. “I love Decatur. It is diverse, politically progressive, family oriented and I can walk everywhere,” she said. She said it was the kitchen that convinced her to buy her current 2,888-square-foot home for $640,000 in 2001. A five-bedroom, four-bathroom home nearby built this year is currently on the market for $679,000.
Ah, to have bought a Decatur home in 2001. Some people get all the breaks!
Peek.
HA! I was just about to ask if there was a mountain in her house.
You nit-picking grammarians! 🙂 It was obvious that DM meant that one could become sickly, emaciated, or pale within that home@
This is where you are allowed to make fun
That is a heck of a lot of space for a 2 bedroom house.
I’m not sure that $221 a square foot 9 years ago is really getting “all the breaks.”
A 6% increase in value in 9 years isn’t all that great.
Nice house though!
I don’t know how I feel about the description of Decatur as a “lush suburb of Atlanta”. Harumph.
Decatur is home to a well-known star – Saliers – yet we can’t even land a Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods Market in this “lush suburb of Atlanta.”
And this is yet another reason we need a Whole Foods Market!
She must be REALLY thirsty.

This made me chuckle for the first time today– thanks, cranky!
VOTE CRANKY!
