What's special
Step into your future dream property—a truly rare find in Athens that’s bursting with charm, character, and potential. Tucked away on over 3 wooded acres just 10 minutes from downtown, Five Points, Normaltown, and the Loop, this is your chance to own one of the most unique homes on the market, now priced $60K below original listing!
Originally designed and built by a local artist-architect in 1977, this creative and soulful home features dramatic vaulted ceilings, sculptural architecture, and enchanting natural light throughout. If you're looking for something special—not a cookie-cutter flip—this is the one.
Inside, you’ll find:
-3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, including a generous primary suite with private balcony
-A stunning, light-filled entry atrium with lofted ceilings
-A separate attached studio suite with private entrance and half bath—perfect for guests, a home business, or your dream creative space
-A gourmet kitchen with premium upgrades: LG French-door fridge, brand-new Samsung dishwasher, and high-end Samsung washer/dryer. (Stove not included—bring your dream range!)
Yes, this home needs some TLC—but it’s priced accordingly. With this much land, this much personality, and this kind of layout, you simply won’t find anything else like it in Athens at this price point.
Outside, the grounds are a magical mix of nature and artistry: mature native trees, fig trees, flowering azaleas, and grapevine- and wisteria-covered pergolas make the backyard feel like a secret garden. There's room to grow, expand, or just retreat in peace.
Seller is moving overseas and ready to make a deal. Bring your contractor, bring your vision—this home is being sold AS-IS, but the upside is enormous.
