The most magical property in the Athens/Oconee area may well be 1261 Knob Creek Drive. The quiet street leads to a long driveway bringing you to over five acres of low maintenance landscaped grounds that surround this classic home. Once inside, the hardwood floors will impress while the natural light will make you feel like you've walked onto a movie set. The renovated kitchen is open with a Sub Zero refrigerator and Fisher & Paykel dishwasher. Slide over to the master on main and you will love the bamboo flooring, private deck, and the new skylights. The three bedrooms upstairs have cool angles that the kids will love, and the finished basement with tall ceilings has another full bed and bath along with tons of storage and a workshop. Venture back outside and the icings on the cake include a private swimming pool and newly installed solar panels that will decrease your power bills greatly. The owners of 1261 Knob Creek Drive literally walk their kids to school at Athens Academy, and you can be at award winning Oconee County schools within ten minutes and The University of Georgia in less than that ! Location, charm, and all the bells and whistles make 1261 Knob Creek the home you've been dreaming about.
