**Charming 1930s Country Home on 2 Acres - Athens, TN** Step into the charm of yesteryear with this inviting 2-bedroom, 2-bath home nestled on 2 peaceful acres in the heart of Athens. Built in the 1930s, this home blends classic character with practical updates and plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors. Inside, the layout offers cozy living with flexibility to make it your own, and with a little vision and finishing touches, this property could easily become the timeless retreat you've been dreaming of. The seller has already completed many of the important upgrades, including a new water heater, a new water line from the road to the home, and a fully updated septic system with new field lines, added clean outs, and a freshly emptied tank. The exterior has been refreshed with brand-new siding, while the roof was replaced in 2018. Additional updates include new doors, new ceiling fans, updated exterior lighting, extra gutters added where needed, support for the front porch, and gravel in the crawl space for added protection. The land itself is a highlight—level, cleared, and full of potential for gardening, hobby farming, or expansion. Two driveways connect from separate roads, providing added convenience and accessibility. This feature also allows the possibility of dividing the lot into two separate investments or homesites. A large barn and two storage sheds provide ample space for tools, equipment, or outdoor projects, while the carport offers convenient covered parking. The private back patio is the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the quiet country surroundings. Home to be sold AS-IS. Seller is however offering a credit of $6,000.00 to buyer at closing for HVAC replacement. Whether you are searching for a peaceful homestead, an investment opportunity, or a retreat with room to grow, this property is ready to welcome its next owner. Call today to schedule your private showing and see all that this East Tennessee gem has to offer.
