Upper level comprises the main living areas, with completely open design in what is effectively a "studio" house, with spacious LR, dining and kitchen areas.

First off, Todd Wingett built this custom home, so that speaks volumes about quality. Second, though a mud room usually would not be the first room to gush over, trust me....this one is everything (built-ins and more built-ins). And third, it's all up hill from there. The home is beautiful, with a custom kitchen, stylish woodwork, a separate office (no looking at a bed while you are working), open plan, dreamy primary suite, and plenty of storage, inside and out. The back yard looks out on woods (yours), not neighbors, so even though you're in the city with its every convenience close by, the home has its privacy. You even get a safety feature I haven't seen elsewhere: Each 2nd floor bedroom has a build-in, pull out ladder in case of emergency. Newer homes are so rare in a historic town like Athens, making this the unicorn of in-town living. With benefits like a half bath on 1st, customized walk-in closet in the primary bedroom, pull-down garage storage & enclosed fenced yard, its the whole package. Owner took good care of the home in general, and now has freshened paint inside, power-washed outside, & tidied up landscaping. So it is ready day one for you to live the good life.

Touring this house, for me, brings to mind the old punk-rock anthem, "If the Kids are United" by Sham 69 because the kids were obviously fully united and encouraged to enjoy the space to fullest. This is evident in the climbing wall, swing hooks suspended in the ceiling, and finger painted graffiti marking some of the walls. Kudos to the sellers for providing such a carefree environment and encouraging the creative and adventurous spirit of their little ones, but if that's not your thing, don't get caught up in the superficial appearance. This is a well maintained beloved family home, which will clean up faster than your old patchouli drenched college buddy who drove a BMW in Birkenstocks. Featuring a newer roof (2020), hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings and lots of natural light. This 2 bedroom, one full bath house has lots of closet space, and a large loft area that could be used for sleeping or extra storage and an open layout. There is a one car garage with a brick floor, electric, and a lean-to style shed with a concrete pad. Round it out with a cozy (and flat!) back yard and a long driveway, uncommon on the Westside, which gives this place as much potential as it does charm.
