You've been looking for the perfect home for a while and nothing quite feels like "the one." You need SPACE. You need something ELEGANT. You want a nice neighborhood, and you don't want to have to do a whole lot of exterior maintenance. We've got you, sister. 174 Ashbrook Drive in Ashton Place ticks your boxes. The curb appeal of this home is quietly elegant but not fussy - quality is what you're looking for, but nothing pretentious. Inside, soaring two-story ceilings over the foyer and great room are the very definition of "space," but it is still a very cozy atmosphere. You absolutely love the display spaces and the double wall of windows. It's easy to picture downtime with your feet up, snuggled in front of the beautiful fireplace. The eat-in kitchen and adjacent keeping room are more than spacious. You know you'll love creating in this gourmet space on that commercial grade stove. The breakfast area is just the right size, as is the keeping room with a fireplace of its own. The wooded, private view is soothing and brings the outdoors in, especially as you step onto the screened porch. The vaulted ceiling and stone exterior wall give it a bit of a lodge vibe. Wander back inside - you still have more to discover! Behind the great room is the owner's suite. This unique space has a vaulted sitting area where some cozy furniture will create a perfect reading nook. The ensuite bath has a tiled walk-in shower, double vanity, jetted tub and walk-in closet. All your must-haves! Upstairs, you'll appreciate the three bedrooms each with a distinct personality. One has its own ensuite bath while the other two that share a full bath also have interesting features. A sitting room off the room on the left is a wonderful flex space that could be anything from another sleeping space, private office or dressing room, while the other bedroom has a wonderful vaulted ceiling. Square footage is what you're after, and you know this home still has a full basement to discover. Through the door between the great room and the kitchen, a finished basement holds another full bath, an enormous family room, a central flex space, another bedroom and an entry area with outside access. This could be a private apartment with the addition of a kitchen, or you may use it for the family overflow during the holidays - something you've really been needing. Super close to UGA Vet school and to downtown Athens!
