Set on a .770-acre corner lot, this pristine residence showcases a formal plan enhanced with open spaces, blending classic comfort with modern ease. From the moment you're welcomed inside, the home's thoughtful design and quality finishes are on full display-engineered wood floors, detailed trim package, decorative lighting and lofty 9ft.+ ceilings. Designed for effortless single-level living, the gracious layout begins with a welcoming foyer, flanked by the formal dining room, that ushers you into the great room. The heart of the home, the great room offers ample space and a masonry fireplace creating an atmosphere of sophistication and warmth. Perfectly designed for entertaining, the great room flows seamlessly into the gourmet kitchen where custom cabinetry, tile backsplash, sleek granite countertops, double wall ovens, pantry with shelving system, and a full stainless appliance package combine for an elevated culinary experience. The sunroom-style breakfast room is ideal for morning coffee or wind down with a hot toddy from the bar area while overlooking the serene rear yard. A thoughtfully designed split-bedroom layout places the owner's suite privately off the great room. This spacious retreat is complete with tray ceiling, plush carpet, a large closet with shelving system, and a spa-inspired bath. No detail missed, the primary lavatory features dual granite-topped vanities, upgraded tile shower, tile-encased garden tub and private water closet. Two additional bedrooms and a perfectly appointed full bath anchor the East wing of the home, providing comfortable accommodations for family or guests. Adding tremendous versatility, this property now includes a newly finished bonus room guest suite complete with an upgraded full bath-the ideal retreat for visitors, a teen suite, or home office. Outdoor living is just as inviting, with both a covered porch and open-air patios perfect for entertaining, while the privacy fence envelopes the rear. This total package comes with the added benefit of a prime location-within 7 miles to Athens, just 6 minutes to Hwy. 129/Jefferson Road, and offering direct access to the public entrance of Bear Creek for a little lake-time fun.
