Check out this charming, historic home in the heart of Normaltown - about 1/2 mile from multiple restaurants, coffee shops, Piedmont Athens Regional Medical Center, and the new UGA Med School. Downtown Athens and UGA are just 1.5 miles away! This 4 sided brick home built in 1940 has been lovingly updated with a brand new kitchen and laundry area, fresh paint, new HVAC and ductwork, tankless water heater, fencing, and crawl space vapor barrier. The majority of the windows have been replaced with exact replicas of the original ones (but better insulated). Several original interior doors have been stripped and re-stained, with the original hardware cleaned and reinstalled. Two bedrooms, including the Primary bedroom, are on the main floor (one is being used as a music room / office), with a full bath. Two more bedrooms are upstairs with a bath and sitting area. This home is move in ready - just add your own special touches! The front porch and patio are perfect for relaxing with friends and family, and have been great for hosting PorchFest bands 4 years in a row. Raised beds and other planters make this in-town garden space easy to grow your own veggies, and the huge fig tree is another bonus! The backyard is fully fenced, and there's plenty of off-street parking as well, including a garage and carport.

Reimagined & nestled in one of Athens' most sought-after intown neighborhoods-Normaltown-and zoned for award-winning Burks Elementary, this beautifully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath cottage seamlessly blends timeless charm with modern sophistication. Completely transformed in 2018, the home not only underwent a full renovation but was thoughtfully expanded with a new wing, creating a spacious and functional layout. No detail was overlooked-from all-new wiring and upgraded electrical throughout to fully replaced plumbing extending all the way to the street. Even the exterior was enhanced with new water spigots and convenient interior shut-off valves. Inside, the home has been reimagined with an open, light-filled design. Walls were removed, new windows were added, and new LVP floors flow throughout. A welcoming front porch leads into a bright foyer that opens to the heart of the home-an expansive kitchen featuring granite countertops, classic subway tile, stainless steel appliances, a new sink, and abundant custom cabinetry for exceptional storage. The adjacent dining room overlooks the front lawn and offers generous space for gatherings, while the inviting living area boasts a wood-burning fireplace and plentiful natural light. Just off the living room, a flexible space provides the perfect setting for a home office, playroom, or additional seating area. Two secondary bedrooms, each overlooking the private backyard, are tucked beyond a charming archway that adds architectural character. On the opposite side of the home, the newly added owner's suite offers a peaceful retreat, complete with a luxurious bath featuring double vanities, an oversized walk-in shower, a spacious closet, and a semi-private water closet. Step directly from the bedroom onto the back deck-ideal for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The outdoor space is equally impressive. The large, level, fenced backyard is perfect for entertaining, complete with blooming roses surrounding a charming gazebo, a fire pit, and ample room for games, gatherings, or game-day tailgates. A stylish storage shed offers additional flexibility and could easily function as a private home office or studio. Additional highlights include a double driveway with ample off-street parking and a convenient side entrance leading directly into the kitchen. The beautifully landscaped front yard has been thoughtfully curated to provide year-round color and interest.
