726 Whitehead Rd offers elevated casual living at a move in ready home in West Athens. This 3 bedroom 2 bath floorplan is comfortable and functional and when paired with the better than one and a quarter acre lot, the property is exceptional. One will quickly appreciate how the home is sited on the parcel. Set well off the road, the winding gravel drive provides opportunity to enjoy the almost meadow like front yard that's level, offers both sun and shade, and is populated by several towering hardwoods. A quick stroll around back reveals a back yard area that feels both private and special. The covered back deck will be great for relaxing and entertaining guests. The garage is truly a mechanics dream, anyone looking for shop space will love this. And if the vehicles lose out to the projects there is an additional metal carport building to shelter the car. Inside is equally compelling. The large living room is open to both the casual dining area and the kitchen, but not too open, in the best way. The kitchen is charming and user friendly with wonderful adjoining pantry space. The laundry room almost doubles as a mud room that area too is very user friendly. Two bedrooms and one full bath are on the left side of the floorplan and the large master suite area is private on the other end of the footprint. This home has been well maintained, offers little in the way of deferred maintenance, and will be a great option for your clients.
