Looking for the perfect blend of privacy, personality, and proximity to town? Welcome to your peaceful retreat on nearly 7 acres-where nature, comfort, and character come together in one unique property. This custom-built 2-bedroom, 1-bath home was thoughtfully designed for energy-efficient living and cozy charm, with surprises at every turn. Inside, you'll find 1,092 sq ft of heated living space, soaring 12-foot ceilings, and a sleek wood stove that brings both style and warmth. The layout includes a mini apartment setup with a kitchenette-ideal for guests, roommates, or multigenerational living. Step into the 200 sq ft breezeway hangout-perfect for morning coffee or late-night chats-and explore the 288 sq ft accessory garage unit, already wired and waiting for your personal touch (think music studio, wood working or other hobby). Outside, you'll love the 400 sq ft front deck, a custom firepit for s'mores under the stars, and your very own outdoor movie screen for unforgettable summer nights. Invite your friends over to enjoy the "glamping" set up which is a short walk in the woods. The professionally fenced garden (formerly used for organic farming) is a dream come true-complete with peach, plum, fig, apple, and pear trees. Tucked among the trees, you'll enjoy wooded views, visits from deer and songbirds, and the peace of your own private slice of nature. And coming soon-a brand-new Sandy Creek Park entrance less than a mile away! Modern features include: Energy-efficient appliances, underground utilities, brand-new fiber optic internet, and yes, EVERYTHING you see conveys-except the ukuleles & personal items. Just a short drive to downtown Athens, UGA, and all your local favorites.

AR
Agricultural Residential District
The purpose of the Agricultural Residential AR district is to maintain an area of rural use and character within Athens-Clarke County, to preserve a working agricultural landscape in these areas to conserve environmentally sensitive resources to stabilize and protect single-family characteristics of the districts and to promote and encourage a suitable environment for family life. Application of the zone will ensure that the farming, pasture, and forestry uses and the scenic values associated with these and the single-family residential character of these areas, are protected from incompatible development that could result in the degradation of these values. Clustered housing is permitted and encouraged in the form of conservation subdivisions, leaving large amounts of land in agricultural use and open space. Recreational, institutional and limited commercial uses are also appropriate for these districts.
