Incredible renovation of 1900’s farm house keeping the character and quality while turning it into a stunning showplace. You have all the advantages and peacefulness of the countryside while only being a few minutes from the heart of downtown Watkinsville. From the moment you enter the foyer from the large front porch, you can’t help but notice the attention to detail - reclaimed wood floors from a local bourbon distillery, gorgeous french doors leading to the new oversized side deck, "Harry Potter's Room" under the stairs, and the perfect flow in the truly great room and designer kitchen. The layout is ideal for most people’s needs with the majority of the living space including the primary suite and a second bedroom on the main level. The spacious and bright living, dining and kitchen flow perfectly for gathering with friends and family. There’s also a massive family room perfect for music, game and movie nights or a place to sneak away. Rounding out the downstairs is a powder room, huge utility room with extra storage, and an office nook. Upstairs are two spacious bedrooms with a re-done jack and jill bathroom, lots of storage space, and a bonus room with spots for studying, video games, or crafts. Tucked at the back of the house is the large detached garage big enough for two oversized vehicles with a separate room for storage, a workshop or home gym. The sprawling 2.8 acres has multiple spaces to relax and entertain. There is also a fenced garden with raised beds, a massive chicken coop, a pole barn, a second barn ready for your next large event or conversion for some more animals, discreet covered storage and a fenced space perfect for the family dogs or ready for a playscape. Walking the property you can’t help but notice the old pecans, Japanese maples, ginko & the 150+ year old magnolia - pieces of history impossible to replicate in newer developments. You can get this level of design and spaciousness while still being only a few minutes drive to award winning Oconee County schools, shopping, restaurants, and Athens, home of UGA.
