165 Rocky Branch Rd Athens, GA 30605

This mini-estate is less than a mile off the East Side Retail Corridor but feels a world away. Tucked into a very private but open-airy hillside and surrounded by forest, this property deserves its own name! California-style Spanish Colonial. Well-maintained and tastefully updated without losing the vintage appeal. This very spacious, solidly-built 5 bedroom and 3.5 bath home is laid out beautifully, beginning with an arched and gated, brick-walled and landscaped front courtyard with vintage sconce lighting and slate balcony above (accessed from two top floor bedrooms) overlooking the courtyard and grounds beyond. Tiled foyer leads to large eat-in kitchen (with adjacent large laundry room and back deck access), formal and bright living room and dining room (high-end carpet), and sunken den with fireplace currently housing a wood-burning insert. All four main and top floor bedrooms are served by two separate Jack and Jill bathrooms and all have great window views of the property. All the main and top floor doors to the bathrooms, bedrooms, dining room, coat closet and entry doors are solid and carved. Main floor bedrooms are laid out like a large master with library on one end, bath in the middle and bedroom on the other end. Updated hall half bath on main serves as guest powder room. Walkout basement houses the 5th spacious bedroom suite with updated bathroom. Large two-car garage/workshop area with access to large storage room in back. Back deck overlooks mature, secluded grounds. Wireless security system included. This is a must-see home in a subdivision that rarely has homes come up for sale. Minutes to UGA Vet Med School, the East Side Retail Corridor, schools, UGA Main Campus and Downtown. You will not find a better deal in town. Easy to show and ready to go. All showings must be prearranged with LA.
