Traditional, comforting and welcoming - there really is ‘no place like home’ at 1190 Twin Lakes Rd. This charming all-brick home in the serene Birchmore Hills neighborhood of Oconee County combines classic high-quality construction with modern updates across nearly an acre of a beautiful and idyllic yard. With a welcoming rocking-chair front porch and a thoughtful layout inside, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath property offers just under 3,000 square feet of comfortable living space. An abundance of natural light floods into the home from the large picturesque windows, and while the rooms are large and spacious, they are not lacking in comfort or charm. The family room features a cozy brick fireplace with gas logs as a central point of the room flanked on either side by floor to ceiling windows. A full wall of custom built-ins provide for personal styling and convenient storage. The heart of the home, the open and airy kitchen, features tile flooring, custom cabinetry, contemporary lighting and a cozy eat-in area. An oversized walk-in pantry offers ample storage, and the nearby flex-space provides an ideal work-from-home setup. Adjacent to the kitchen, this practical space houses the laundry room and an additional utility closet, is perfect for a drop zone, a home office, or a mudroom, and offers exterior access to both the backyard and the garage. The main-level primary suite is an owner’s haven with a spacious bedroom and an updated bathroom that boasts two vanities, a spacious walk-in closet, and a tiled shower. A formal dining room (or additional living room) and a half bathroom are also on the main floor. Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms, a full bath with a double vanity, and a fun bonus room with a skylight that could serve as a perfect playroom. Storage won’t be an issue, as this home is filled with ample closet space and walk-in storage areas. The true wonder of this home can be found outside and in the most incredible backyard. A screened-in porch with tile flooring and a vaulted ceiling opens to an expansive patio, perfect for quiet evenings or outdoor gatherings. The backyard is private, grassy and flat, with both bright and sunny areas for growing a garden and magnificent mature, shade trees. The property also includes a two-car garage and a detached 16’x12’ storage building. This home is well-maintained with a newer architectural roof, fresh paint, and recently refinished hardwood floors. In Oconee County with an Athens address, this home is convenient to everything, zoned for top-tier schools, and in a well-established, friendly neighborhood. This home embraces you with warmth and comfort, and it is waiting with open arms for its new owners!
