Interior walls were all taken to the studs, rebuilt, and insulated for further privacy. Blown cellulose insulation in the attic. Back screened porch overlooks the yard and veggie gardens below and was built to be convertible to interior heated and cooled living space if desired. Owner’s suite with generously sized bathroom, very private toilet, and walk-in closet.

Fantastic opportunity to own a piece of Athens's history in one of our most prized in-town neighborhoods. Built in 1912, this home served as one of Athens' most well known recording studios for 40+ years, but over the past 10 years it's been lovingly restored to a classic historic neighborhood home. Handcrafted, detailed upgrades and updates as well as original elements have been brought back to life in this major restoration. The kitchen is the most recent addition and features custom cabinetry and countertops, a gorgeous copper range hood, a large walk-in pantry, and double door access to the back porch. The current bedroom configuration consists of 2 Bedrooms with a Jack and Jill bathroom on the main level as well as a lofted space above the garage that could be made into a gorgeous master bedroom. One bedroom and bathroom on the main level has been left unfinished but could be easily made into a main floor master bedroom or a nicely sized bedroom with an ensuite bath. An unusual feature to an intown home is the addition of an attached 2 car garage with loft space above. The garage is currently a woodworking shop and the bonus space would make for great for additional living space, an art studio, or a fantastic master suite. This house is sturdy, well-built, and well-maintained with tons of charm, potential, and space in an unbeatable location.

Incredible opportunity to own a beautifully restored Gothic Revival home in Cobbham Historic District. 475 Meigs Street is an Athens icon with one-of-a-kind architectural features recognizable by anyone who has spent even a short amount of time in the Classic City. The original property comprising half of a city block served as one of Athens' first schools, The Meigs Street School, until 1918. Many of the original structures still stand today and have been converted into residences. The home, constructed c. 1873, is sited a notable distance from the street which allows a delightful fenced front yard - a gardener's paradise with many mature trees, perennials, and a sizable water feature with Koi fish. There are many areas of the yard to entertain friends and family, and you can wave to passersby who are walking to Downtown Athens or the multiple restaurants in between. Ascending the front steps, you reach the deck that flanks the French Doors. Upon entry, a breathtaking view of the Greatroom enveloped in natural lighting courtesy of four restored, triple-hung windows. Heart of pine flooring runs throughout the main level of the home with exception to the oak inlay at the center of the Greatroom and Brazilian Cherry in the Primary Suite. Wide baseboards, gorgeous moldings, and stately columns are a testament to the craftsmanship of yesteryear. The floorpan lends itself to entertaining and dinner parties with a dining area that seats twelve. The kitchen features ample, freshly painted custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances including a double wall oven, granite countertops, and another gorgeous, triple-hung window. The Primary Suite features Brazilian Cherry floors and a spacious ensuite bathroom with wide vanity, Jacuzzi tub, and separate shower. Through the ensuite bathroom is the walk-in closet complete with custom closet system and eye-level windows spanning the length of the outside wall. Two secondary bedrooms, one featuring a custom loft, share a hall bathroom. The laundry room has a wall of storage shelves perfect for your sundries and houseplants. 475 Meigs Street consists of three unique living spaces. The main level consists of three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and has soaring ceilings. Upstairs, you will find the Mother-In-Law Suite featuring ample living space, two bedrooms, a full kitchen, full bathroom, and laundry. Multiple skylights and clerestory windows bring in the sunlight while also allowing extra privacy. Ample built-in storage and closets in this suite to boot. An adorable cottage located in the side yard has a studio layout to include a full kitchen and bathroom plus a lofted bed. The current owners have experienced great success with Airbnb and long-term tenants occupying the guest suites should a new owner wish to live on the main level and generate passive income. Need more storage? The 500+ square foot unfinished basement is perfect for hiding your excess possessions, creating a man-cave, or workshop. This is the epitome of In-Town Athens living - walk, roll, or scoot to all the excellent dining and shopping options on the Prince Avenue Corridor, Bottleworks, and Downtown Athens. The University of Georgia's historic North Campus is just a stone's throw away. Schedule your private tour today!

The photographer called this property a cool "character house" and we couldn't agree more. This painstakingly restored former duplex mill house is absolutely move-in ready and in the thick of one of the coolest parts of town, convenient to everything; you name it, you're near it. This is a rare and historically storied block of Franklin Street in the coveted Cobbham district. Loads of custom artisan finishes in this 3 Bed/2 Bath home with heart-pine floors throughout and school-days-reminiscent VCT flooring in the kitchen and dining area and bathrooms. 10 Foot plus ceilings (re-claimed metal ceiling in the center hall). Interior walls were all taken to the studs, rebuilt, and insulated for further privacy. Blown cellulose insulation in the attic. Back screened porch overlooks the yard and veggie gardens below and was built to be convertible to interior heated and cooled living space if desired. Owner's suite with generously sized bathroom, very private toilet, and walk-in closet. One bedroom has been designed as a dedicated office space, and if you are a creative looking for a good home office, you just found it. Back yard is spacious and sunny and has a very hip vintage camper outfitted as a writer's retreat. Plenty of storage in numerous artisan built sheds and a basement that houses a workshop, laundry, and more storage. Newer HVAC and metal roof. Updated double pane windows throughout. All structural concerns typical of older homes have been professionally addressed. New plumbing and electrical. Much more to tell so please inquire for more info. But now to the POWER PLAY: This multi-family zoned property has been approved for a detached garage with a second story apartment. Drawings and updated plat are all completed, approved by the county, and available by request (realtors: draws available in the "docs"). The current 20x22 foot print for this addition to the property could likely be expanded from 440 sq. Ft. to 1000 sq. ft. for more garage and living space above. PLEASE INQUIRE AND REQUEST DRAWINGS and PLAT. This would make an amazing guest cottage/conforming airbnb or permanent rental. All this and more, but we have to stop here, so please request a showing and we will happily accommodate! We suspect this one will go quickly.
