Description

Classic 2-Story, 5/3 Beauty on a lovely lot in the Historic Cobbham District, one block off Prince corridor, just blocks from Downtown, hip Normaltown commercial district, Piedmont Regional hospital, 33 acre Bishop Park, 58 acre UGA Health Science & Medical school, UGA's main campus, community theater, restaurants, arts, live music venues, everything that makes Athens a unique and special place to live. This architectural gem features a large front porch, 12' ceilings, original mantles, oak and heart pine floors throughout, the doors have been stripped to reveal the original wood, large windows, excellent natural light, built-in cabinetry, an exposed/open staircase in living room, some antique light fixtures, generally an abundance of historic character. On the main level, there are either 3-4 common area rooms, one of which can be used as an Owner's suite, a large kitchen with stainless appliances, black granite counters, with stunning reclaimed heart pine floors, and there's are 2 tile baths, each with vintage aesthetics. Upstairs, there are 4 bedrooms, an art studio space, and a stunning custom bath, with beautiful handmade blue/green tiles and sink from local, R Wood Studio. Any of these rooms could be used as flex rooms: office, music space, art studio, yoga/meditation . Outdoors, the front yard has an array of Japanese Maples and evergreen plantings, terraced above the street/sidewalk. The sides and back yard are fenced and fairly private, with a small back porch, courtyard, in a tranquil setting. There's a rear alley which provides the opportunity to build a garage at rear of lot, possibly a guest cottage, art studio, or office. This is one of those rare historic beauties that aren't commonly on the market. xx
