Where to begin? This space just isn't enough to describe adequately all the wonderful features of this exquisite home in one of Athens' most sought-after neighborhoods. The current owners took a partially finished basement and built it out to their demanding specifications--with the exception of the basement full bath, which can be completed to the new owners' demanding specifications--and installed LED lighting throughout the house. The result is a warm, inviting 4-bedroom home with three full and two half-baths. You'll never want for storage space, entertaining room or privacy in a layout this expansive! The ample kitchen opens up into both the eat-in space and the great room--which itself contains a wine bar and wine storage. The two extra bedrooms on the main level share a jack-and-jill bath and sit to the left side of the home. On the right side are both the library/entertaining room and the generous master suite. And yet...perhaps the crown jewel of the main level is the house-length screened porch. Four separate entrances take you to the secluded, serene space with two ceiling fans, plenty of shadows during the summer and sunlight during the winter when the trees are bare, and close enough you can occasionally hear the gurgling (or dull roar) of the Oconee River. The basement area, originally plumbed to create an entirely separate living space, now boasts a massive living area, generous bedroom that could be used as an in-law suite, its own half-bath, two extra rooms to serve any purpose you choose, a workshop and enough unfinished space to store every conceivable kind of decoration for any time of year. Add in the location, almost exactly a mile to the Five Points intersection, and you have a family fortress that's sure to meet the tastes of the most discerning of owners. Don't miss this gem!
