If you've been waiting for something special in Five Points, this is the one - rare new construction where luxury feels right at home and every detail has been chosen with intention. This four-bedroom home is a complete transformation of a classic Athens brick cottage, rebuilt from the ground up with 3,021 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, custom millwork, and a bonus suite above the two-car garage with its own bedroom, bath, and living area - connected to the main house by a breezeway. Its the kind of project that doesn't come along often, and the kind of home that's even rarer in this neighborhood. Step inside and the main level sets the tone immediately: 10-foot ceilings, reclaimed heart pine floors, and a chefs kitchen anchored by quartzite countertops and salvaged cypress beams overhead. Gas lanterns flank the front door. A screened back porch - made for football Saturdays - extends the living space outdoors in the way only Athens porches can. The primary suite is on main, because it should be. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms and three beautifully tiled bathrooms are finished with the same level of care, with 9-foot ceilings keeping the upper level from feeling like an afterthought. The garage suite adds rare versatility - ideal for multigenerational living, a private guest retreat, or income potential that practically pays for itself. Step outside and Bar Bruno and The Pub are just a four-minute walk away. So is everything else that makes Five Points the most sought-after neighborhood in Athens. This is not a neighborhood you drive to - its one you walk out your front door into. Buyers who engage early have the opportunity to personalize select finishes - reach out for current completion details and available selections.
