Situated on the most premiere street in Athens, this incredible 4 bedroom/4 bath (1/1 in carriage house) home has been lovingly updated while keeping the prime historic elements of original construction. The high ceilings and grand, formal rooms are casually elegant and provide great flow for entertaining with original beautifully refinished hardwood floors and pristine plaster walls. Approaching the front door, is a beautiful brick walkway with incredible landscaping flanking either side. You walk into a formal foyer entry with a large living space with fireplace and lovely vaulted sunroom with generous floor to ceiling windows and doors. The dining room is ample sized with original built-ins and classic folding doors. The kitchen has been beautifully updated with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a sub zero fridge and two freezer drawers. The kitchen offers additional access to the dreamiest gardens, covered patio with outdoor fireplace, and fenced yard - you will want to live in the backyard alone! The owner's suite on the main level is graciously sized with a private sitting room with additional fireplace, and a fully updated en-suite bathroom with two large vanities, soaker tub, huge separate shower, and a dressing room with private laundry. Beautiful hardwood floors are throughout the home and the original trim has been preserved. Upstairs are two spacious secondary bedrooms with a renovated hall bathroom with a large tile shower and a separate, large laundry. A single car garage with a carriage house above was recently added, and creates the perfect private guest suite! The home is constructed of concrete and hard - coat stucco and is extremely energy efficient. This private oasis is located in the heart of Five Points with extreme walkability to some of the best restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, and award-winning David C Barrow Elementary School!
