This custom-built modern farmhouse outside Athens, GA is more than a showplace. Meticulous attention detail makes it an ideal home for practical rural living. Sitting on over 12 acres, you can watch deer outside from either the rocking chair front porch or large screened-in porch during the day if you’re not gardening in the raised beds or working in the shop, both equipped with water. Once you’re finished, step inside the over-sized mud room before settling in to the two-story great room or by the brick fireplace. Cook your meals along side the great room, opening the beautiful white shaker cabinets for your supplies and using the convenient pot-filler by the stove. Granite countertops and a farmhouse sink give you timeless style and function. Two generously sized upstairs bedrooms with large closets and a bathroom allow room for everyday living and the storage needed to accommodate it. The master suite on the main level, solid white pine and porcelain tile throughout the home, and wide door-ways insure anyone can live with ease for many years. A central vacuum system, Trex decking and metal ceilings on the porches make maintaining the beauty of the home a dream. Located about 35 minutes from downtown Athens, GA and the University of Georgia campus, the property allows access to medical amenities there as well as a plethora of shopping and cultural opportunities. Closer by, Elberton, Comer, and Colbert are small towns with active local shopping and growing communities. If you prefer aquatic recreation, the Broad River is minutes away, and both Lake Russell and Lake Hartwell are under an hour drive. Horse lovers may enjoy the trails nearby at Watson Mill Bridge State Park, less than 15 minutes from home. Come fall in love with this gorgeous property and experience the joys of life in the country.
