Spacious, brick ranch home in a country setting just minutes from Athens! The main level of the home opens with hardwood floors which span the foyer, living room, office, and all bedrooms. The kitchen is situated just off of the living room with a tile backsplash, tile floors, granite countertops, and a center island with bar top seating. A butler's pantry connects the kitchen to an oversized, light filled addition on the rear which does not disappoint! Around 1000 square feet of hardwood floors, wall to wall windows, and a huge vaulted ceiling make this space the centerpiece of the home which is currently setup as a dining room, family room, and media room. A split bedroom floor plan provides privacy for the master suite which is located down the right side of the home with hardwood floors and a trey ceiling in the master bedroom. The ensuite features tile flooring, a soaking tub, and stand up shower. Two additional bedrooms are located down the left side of the home with a hall bathroom sandwiched between. A bonus room is located over the garage offering additional space for a home office, teen suite, or workout area. If all of this isn't enough, this home is situated on a cul-de-sac lot and backs up to over 100 acres of pasture land offering beautiful, country views across the rear of the property!
