About This Home

As of June 2024

Fall in love with this adorable home full of charm and character! Lots of natural light pouring into nearly every room creating a cheerful, happy, homey feel. Updated kitchen and bathrooms, updated electricity, updated smooth ceilings, new insulation in attic and original hardwood floors in the living room and foyer are just a few of the things I love about this house. Enjoy the back deck, right off the kitchen, with party lights already in place and a huge, level, private backyard just waiting for your next celebration or if you'd rather, a quiet evening alone with a good book! All of this within walking distance to Publix Grocery and other stores. Just 5 minutes to downtown Athens and the UGA campus and only 20 minutes to the towns own beautiful botanical gardens, which never disappoints, no matter the season. This wonderful home would make a fabulous Airbnb, a home for UGA student(s) or a family home to enjoy for another 79 years! No HOA and no rental restrictions!
