Peace and tranquility in abundance here...but you'll still be able to take advantage of city convenience with Athens only minutes away. A long, meandering driveway takes you to this stately home on a hilltop setting. The owners have kept some of the charm and character of a 1970's sprawling brick ranch but have added a touch of modern, too. The entry way is an impressive, sunken slate foyer with built-in bookcases and shelving that opens up to the most welcoming great room. The stone fireplace with wood burning insert is so cozy and could heat the whole house! You'll find a formal dining room large enough to accommodate large furnishings and gatherings, a kitchen with a breakfast nook, tons of counter and cabinet space...and a laundry/pantry area to covet! Head down the hall and the secondary bedrooms are on the right and the master retreat is on the the left. The master bedroom is so spacious and has a private dressing room that is sure to impress! But I've saved the best detail for last...a beautiful sunroom across the back of the house that could possibly be the room that you'll enjoy the most. You can access it from the master or the living room and it's perfect for enjoying your morning coffee, watching the wildlife, curling up to read a book or maybe use it as an art studio...the natural lighting is perfect! This home also has an unfinished basement that is accessible from the outside only....it would be a perfect set up as a workshop, woodworking space, craft room or hobby room. All that this home has to offer is situated on a spacious but manageable 3.84 acre lot....and is so close to shopping, grocery stores, restaurants, breweries and Loop 10. You're just a hop, skip and a jump to anything you'll ever need! Call agent for your private tour.
