155 The Plaza Athens, GA 30606

Charming In-town 2/2.5 cottage, with detached Granny flat cottage within the privacy fenced backyard, located within 1 block of the celebrated Historic Cobbham neighborhood, one of the most architecturally impressive historic neighborhoods in Athens. This cottage underwent a major restoration in 2010, and then in 2015, a master suite was added to the back of the house, which opens thru French doors to a rear patio, and picturesque back yard. Also in 2015, a detached secondary structure was built, a flex space that has a wide array of potential uses: the perfect home office for the new work-from-home World we now live in, a yoga/meditation space, recording/band practice studio, guest space, art studio, a place to cast magic, or just a quiet sanctuary. The primary cottage is a wonderful synthesis of historic character and modern functionality. The living and dining rooms are open to a stylish kitchen. These rooms have wood floors, excellent natural light, fireplace mantle in LR. The kitchen has lovely cabinetry and hardware, stainless appliances, and an exposed brick chimney. Off the kitchen is a hallway, with a side entry French door; this hallway provides access to a large laundry room/pantry, a huge half bath, with built-in storage, and 2 master bedrooms. The larger master is a 2015 addition, featuring vaulted ceilings, huge walk-in closet, stylish tile bath with transom window in shower, and is enveloped in natural light. This is that hard to find in-town home with authentic charm and character, with everything located on 1 level. Located conveniently within walk/bike distance to all the things that make living in Athens unique and special: local restaurants, coffee shops, bakeries, live music and art venues, community theater, Bishop Park ( which hosts a local Farmer's & Artist's Market ), Piedmont Regional hospital, the Warehouse Arts District, Daily Groceries Coop, Downtown, and multiple college campuses, including the University of Georgia. Enjoy living in the heart of an arts-centric, culturally diverse, college town, lauded by many as one of the best places to live in America. Zoned for, and within walking distance of, highly regarded Historic Chase Street Elementary located in the heart of the Historic Boulevard neighborhood.
