Located just 5 miles from UGA/Downtown, and close to shopping, Loop 10 and the Athens Country Club, convenience is paramount.
Enter through a grand two story foyer featuring a curved staircase with intricate craftsman details and twin glass display cases flanking the front door. A formal dining room is located to your left with custom plaster molding and wainscoting which opens into both the foyer, as well as the main living area. To the right is a handsome study with a gas log fireplace which provides secondary access to the owner's suite via double doors. This space could serve as a second sitting room or a home office.
The main living space is a sunken family room which is accented by three large, arched transom windows. An abundance of light flows through this casual gathering space which boasts a beautiful gas log fireplace and built-ins. Entertaining is made easy with the full walk-in wet bar with service area, beverage cooler and cabinetry. Step out onto a spacious deck from french doors located in the sunken family room, offering views of the lush and private rear yard.
The bright, white kitchen has been updated with marble countertops on the large island with great bar seating. Opening into a keeping room, the entire family will be able to visit with the chef of the house. An abundance of cabinetry is available for storage and the built in desk area features upper glass display cabinets. A sub zero refrigerator/freezer and double wall ovens complete this space.
The luxurious primary suite is located on the main level and includes two walk-in closets, spa-like bathroom with new tile shower and double vanities, and a graciously sized sitting area accented by a large bay window. Tray ceilings with up lighting accentuate these marvelous sleeping quarters.
The first floor also has a powder room with grasscloth wall covering, a large laundry room with utility sink, and a 2-car garage.
Upstairs is home to three additional bedrooms and two bathrooms, providing ample space for family and guests. The largest of these bedrooms offers a private bath, while the other two share a full bath, with each bedroom having a private vanity. Access is possible from both the front and rear staircases.
The full finished basement offers additional living space with a bedroom, full bath, movie room with wet bar, and a cozy den with a gas log fireplace and built-ins.
