There are very few Oconee homes that present the convenience of Athens with an Athens address, and the limited opportunity at Chestnut Hill provides just that! Rarely on the market, this double-cul-de-sac street neighborhood is graced with custom homes, spacious lots and mature trees creating a desirable atmosphere of privacy and quiet, easy living. Serving timeless charm and bursting from the seams with amenities, this statement home underwent extensive renovations in 2010, adding over 1000 sqft to create this first-time-on-the market gem. Upon arrival, the exciting details begin to come into focus with the newly painted exterior, professionally manicured lawns accompanied by irrigation, raised garden beds, and rocking-chair front porch where you can pause a moment while you take in all the serenity. Eagerly ushered inside, a warm welcome is provided by the formal living room. Updated to offer multi-functionality, this living space boasts a built-in desk perfect for your home office, and built-in media center flanking the masonry fireplace. Let the hardwood floors guide you to the heart of this home, where the entertainer in you will thrive. Every detail down to the serving bar with China cabinets, custom built-in shelving, and the open dining/living concept was well-planned to offer the best experience. The home chef can serve with ease with the kitchen directly accessing the dining room. Custom appointed, the designer kitchen features upgraded cabinets, sleek granite counters, pantry with shelving system and a complete stainless appliance package aiding in whipping up gourmet feasts. A unique design, the breakfast bar is exposed to the great room encouraging entertaining while offering a more causal dining experience. Quite spacious and full of light, the great room spans the rear of the home offering ample space for large gatherings and boasts double picture windows offering views of the rear yard. If you’re looking for a peaceful haven of your own, this homes owner’s suite is quite compelling. A true retreat, this primary bedroom is tucked away on the main and begins with an exclusive sitting room or office, ensuite full bath featuring double-sink vanity, whirlpool tub, separate shower, and a spacious closet. All of these appointments culminate at the oversized bedroom presenting ample space for large furniture, and more. Additionally, travel up the stairs to find 3 accessory bedrooms and 2 full baths. These aren’t your ordinary bedrooms either….Each have been crafted with tons of space and large closets. However, they also standout individually with either floored attic storage access, one offers a bonus room addition, while the third is the ideal guest suite with private full bath. Simply said, storage and room to expand is no issue.
