You've stumbled upon the most charming whimsical retreat in the heart of Five Points and arguably the best Real Estate location in all of Athens. This is a quiet street with little through traffic. You will come home to a natural park like haven each day with ponds, waterfalls, tons of mature landscaping, a fenced backyard and the cosiest cottage in town. This location is walkable to most of Athens' finest restaurants, Lake Merrick, Memorial park, UGA and has so many fun options to explore closeby. The mature landscaping includes tons of Japanese maples, hostas, tea olive, butterfly bushes and so much more. The yard is brimming with personality at every turn and it is a joy to meander through the walkways and relish the sound of water, the bio diversity and the wildlife. The massive 232 foot front porch is the perfect spot to entertain and enjoy friends/family or just to unwind at the end of the day. The cottage has solid wood floors throughout most of the main level and tile in the kitchen and bath. Once you enter the common living area; you'll find a living room with built-in bookcases on one wall and entry to the dining area and to the cosiest European style kitchen you will ever see with tons of little nooks to decorate. There are 3 bedrooms, with 1 very artfully and beautifully tiled bath. Interior stairs off the kitchen lead to a 650 foot unfinished basement that has an exterior entrance from the driveway side of the house. This flexible basement space is ideal for a workshop/studio, storage and also houses the washer/dryer. If you need more storage the large workshop/shed has plenty of space and has electricity to serve inside or to control the party lights, outdoor kitchen or whatever else you can dream up for the paved rear patio. Owners have updated HVAC system, patio stairs, kitchen floors, most fixtures, upgraded fans and more.
