Come for the house, stay for the location/lifestyle! Rare Opportunity in downtown Watkinsville, Oconee County. This vintage yet updated 4 bed/3 bath classic sits over an unfinished daylight basement with exterior access and is stubbed for sewer with water easily accessed as well. One floor living begins with a slate foyer stepping down to a large, bright sunken living room with the dining room perched above the opposite end of the LR. The back of the home has a den with fireplace and sliding door access to a brick walled back patio overlooking a private yard. The kitchen has a large adjacent laundry/pantry center with access to the dining room as well. An L-shaped hall leads to all four bedrooms with the owner's suite connected to a secondary-bedroom to make for some versatile design options. Two more roomy bedrooms round out the main floor with one of the bedrooms having semi-private access to the hall bath, which is designed to act as two private bathrooms due to opposite ends of the bathroom each having their own toilets and sinks. The basement is clean, dry, has tall ceilings, and is ready for immediate use as storage, gym, play/craft area, shop, or go ahead and finish out for a bunch more heated and cooled space. LARGE double-door two-car garage is accessible here as well. The following are just some of the many updates in the last 2-3 years: new dishwasher, new back sliding door, new back doors in the basement, new HVAC and ductwork, updated flooring, paint in and out, newer gutters and roof, new kitchen sink and disposal, new garage door into basement, freshly pumped and serviced septic right before listing, new water heater boxed and ready for install but current one works great, new fridge, and much more. This home is literally downtown with cafes, shoppes, restaurants, the OCAF Arts center, Little League fields and more all right there. Just a quick jaunt to Wire Park with its shoppes, brewery, kids activities, library, live music stage and more. Within a mile: The new 200+ acre Thompson Farm Preserve County Park with walking and biking trails, Watkinsville Woods is almost literally behind the home. Harris Shoals Park and Rec Field down the street. The Saturday Farmers Market is two blocks away. Many quick options for accessing Athens/UGA. Also super convenient to ATL? Truly a rare find for a lifestyle not easily found in Oconee.
