Take a look at this adorable and affordable home on Lake Hartwell! Whether you've been searching for a weekend getaway or an income producing property, 78 View Point Place checks both boxes. Enjoy access to and views of Lake Hartwell, mature trees, and slip that Kayak right on in! If you've seen this home before, look again - the current owner recently completed a full renovation of both bathrooms, installed a new water heater, painted the interior & kitchen cabinets, and scraped all popcorn ceilings! A beautiful wall of windows in the Greatroom is immediately visible upon entry, and the 16ft ceilings paired with those windows, the wooded lot and lake views create a private oasis. The eat-in kitchen is complete with freshly painted cabinets, newer black stainless appliances, and Corian countertops. The main floor bedroom is across the entry hall from a brand new bathroom with tiled shower, tile floors, and new vanity. Upstairs is the primary suite with new ensuite bathroom complete with tub and tiled surround. A large barn door compliments the wood accent wall and adds privacy to the Primary Suite. There's even a private Juliet Balcony for morning coffee. The spacious deck overlooking Lake Hartwell has plenty of room for friends and family to hang out, crack open a Corona or two, and enjoy every season. Grab the floats, kayaks, or canoes and slip into the water or bring the boat and utilize the nearby boat ramps: Franklin Co Boat Ramp (2.2mi) and Tugaloo State Park & Gumlog Boat Ramp (3.3mi). There is a gazebo on the property for more outdoor enjoyment as well. Conveniently located 5 minutes from I-85, this makes for an easy drive from Athens or Metro Atlanta.
