Want to get just far enough away This delightful 3 bedroom 3 bath country cottage is located in the small town of Colbert just minutes from the city lights of Athens! Situated on a beautifully landscaped acre lot just big enough for beauty small enough for easy care. With 2 bedrooms on the main floor and an oversized versatile bedroom/bonus up, this home fits the bill for a number of lifestyles. From the rocking chair front porch shaded by spreading trees and through the front door I was overcome with nostalgia! Many, many improvements have been made and still so much opportunity to make this your very own.
