Tucked away on a private wooded lot just 7 minutes from Uptown Athens, this is the kind of home that immediately gets your attention. Oversized windows fill the interior with natural light while framing the surrounding trees, creating a bright, open atmosphere that is difficult to replicate in modern construction. Add in the cathedral ceilings, two fireplaces, flexible living space, and multiple outdoor entertaining areas, and you have a home with a character all its own. The main level is centered around a spacious and bright great room with a gas fireplace. The primary bedroom, an additional bedroom, and a full bathroom are also located on this level, providing convenient everyday living. Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining area offers a welcoming place for meals and entertaining. Throughout the home, luxury vinyl plank flooring, recessed lighting, updated trim and interior doors, and newly carpeted bedrooms complement the interior. The garage is also wired for an electric vehicle charger. Take the experience outside to the massive deck overlooking the wooded surroundings, an ideal setting for outdoor dining, summer cookouts, or entertaining beneath the trees. Around the corner, the covered patio provides a more private place to relax with your morning coffee. Scenic views and electrical already in place for a future hot tub add even more possibilities for enjoying the property. The walkout lower level expands the living space with a second gas fireplace, another full bathroom, and two additional rooms currently used as a home office and gym. Just minutes from Ohio University, shopping, dining, and entertainment, this home is close to everything Athens has to offer.
