About This Home
As of April 2022Just the cottage you are looking for in Five Points!! Curb appeal and Charm are the first two things that come to mind when you drive up to this home. Morton Avenue is a quieter street with sidewalks, conveniently located to Five Points restaurants, UGA sporting events and you can walk to Barrow Elementary School. This home is adorable with arch ways around the covered porch, white painted brick and sits perfectly on the lot allowing a front yard and a nice size private backyard. Not only is this home adorable but it was renovated in 2016. As you enter the home there is charming porch, quaint foyer with a closet and a separate little phone room. The home is very open with a large great room at the front, a double case opening to the dining room, mini glass French doors leading to a small office or study, a case opening from the dining room to the kitchen, and a glass French door leading to a sunroom/keeping room/den. You will enjoy having a lovely master suite on the first floor an unbelievable new bathroom and walk-in closet. Upstairs you will find two nice size bedrooms and a full bathroom that has been renovated. The main home has hardwood floors everywhere except the bathrooms and sunroom. As a bonus the new owner has a one bedroom apartment or mother-in-law suite attached to the back of the home. You have a separate gated entrance and this space has been renovated as well including the kitchen, bathroom, adding a laundry closet, and a split system heating and air unit. Not all homes in Five Points have a garage and this home has a three car garage with a little over 1000 unfinished square feet above. Having a lot that is a little over a half acre means you have tons of space to entertain or enjoy resting in lawn chairs on the top terrace of the yard. The backyard is completely fenced in and you have a deck for grilling off the sunroom. When the home was renovated in 2016 they were careful to keep the Five Points cottage character. Some of the new features are: windows, Plantation shutters, marble countertops in the kitchen, high-end stainless steel appliances, Smith kitchen cabinets, tile backsplash, laundry room with Smith cabinets, renovated half bath with pedestal sink, fully renovated upstairs bathroom, and a master bathroom and closet that everyone dreams of. The master bathroom has wonderful natural light with three windows, ample storage with Smith cabinets, claw foot tub, double shower with tile design on the wall, water closet, and a glass front cabinet with a light. You will love the master closet design with Smith cabinets, built-ins on all the walls, and full length mirrors built into the front of the cabinet doors. You will not want to miss the opportunity of owning such a charming home with a rental or mother-in-law suite in your backyard and the ability to park three cars in a garage.
