About this home

This is a lovely cottage which has been completely renovated. Being less than one mile from the UGA campus, and downtown this is a must see. Ceilings have been vaulted with exposed beams. The master bedroom has a stained glass fixed window as an accent. Built in shelves and custom closet provide ample storage. The bathroom has been renovated, plus there is an exterior shower with hot water just outside the expansive screened porch which extends the living area. The living room has a faux fireplace which adds coziness. Built in shelves are perfect for decorating and for books. The kitchen has wood floors and period custom cabinets with plenty of storage and wood countertops. The rear yard is fenced. Next spring and summer you will have fruit from the fruit trees. When you want to visit the new park with the water feature, all you have to do is walk through the back yard to the park. If all of this is not enough to impress you, look at the 2 story studio. Consider it for guest quarters, art studio, office, craft cottage, or man cave. It is also perfect for storage or multipurpose use.
