“An English country home in the heart of Oconee County. ” Set on 22 wooded acres, this gabled manor home draws inspiration from the elegance of a British country house—where craftsmanship, natural beauty, and refined indoor-outdoor living come together. Located ten minutes from Watkinsville and Wire Park, and twenty from Five Points, the property offers rare privacy with easy access to town. Completed two years ago, the custom-built residence reflects extraordinary attention to detail. The foyer and family room were inspired by a boutique London hotel. Hardwood floors, exposed beams, arched doorways, and millwork create warmth and architectural depth, while travertine floors in the entry and kitchen anchor the home’s central gathering spaces. The home’s six bathrooms feature bespoke vanities. The main level includes a study with fireplace, a gracious family room, and a hidden children’s playroom tucked beneath stairs. The kitchen is beautiful and functional, featuring dark walnut counters, a large island, walk-in pantry, and office nook. The primary suite is located on the main level and includes a lavish shower and bath. Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms, along with a bonus room suitable for a gym or playroom and an additional office with a wet bar. A three-car garage is connected by a breezeway and includes conditioned space above for hobbies, storage, or exercise. The landscape is as thoughtfully designed as the home. A screened porch with fireplace provides views across the property and down the “Long Walk” to a meadow. Bluestone patios lead to resort-style outdoor living, featuring a pool, spa, sauna, and outdoor shower. Trails wind through the woods, an eight-foot lattice-fenced “Kitchen Garden, ” and the “Upper Meadow” is suitable as a playground or soccer field. This rare luxury home near Athens, Georgia, offers the best of both worlds: privacy, acreage, and refined country living in Oconee County, minutes from Watkinsville and Athens.
