About This Home
Situated on an oversized wooded cul-de-sac lot, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers the peaceful feel of country living while keeping you just 5-6 minutes from the US29 Kroger, Athens Tech and the Loop and just 15 minutes from the University of Georgia and downtown. The backyard is designed for relaxing and entertaining, featuring a fully fenced yard, an above-ground pool, a spacious deck and beautiful views overlooking a neighboring pasture. Whether you're hosting summer cookouts, watching the kids or pets play, or simply enjoying your morning coffee, you'll love the privacy and natural setting. Inside, you'll find comfortable living spaces plus a generous 27' x 10' bonus room above the attached garage—perfect for a media room, playroom, home office, or guest space. The true showstopper is the detached two-story 35' x 25' garage. The insulated, air-conditioned workshop is ideal for woodworking, hobbies, a home business, or your next creative project. Upstairs, the finished flex space offers endless possibilities as a studio, office, workout room, or additional storage. A 10' x 25' covered awning provides even more room for lawn equipment, recreational vehicles, or outdoor gear. Properties with this combination of a private lot, versatile living space, and an incredible detached workshop are almost impossible to find...but here it is. If you've been searching for a home that offers room to live, work, play, and pursue your hobbies—all in a quiet setting just minutes from Athens—this is one you cannot miss.
