675 Sunset Drive, Athens, GA 30606

Stylish In-town Contemporary 3/3.5 Sanctuary, located in a charming pocket neighborhood ( built in early 2020s ), next to 30 acre Bishop Park, which offers an abundance of green space, walking trails, a track, tennis courts, athletic fields, pool, and a seasonal local Farmer’s/Artist’s market. Additionally, it’s within blocks of the approximately 60 acre historic UGA Health Science campus, a 40 acre YMCA, 2 hospitals, and the historic Normaltown commercial district’s array of restaurants, pubs, & live music. It’s also conveniently close to Downtown and UGA’s main campus. Location, Location, Location…close to all the things that make Athens a desirable destination. This home is very thoughtfully designed, with a master suite and common living areas on both floors, an office/flex room by front door, a wonderful front porch with stone floor, with stepping stone path to sidewalk, lush landscaping, and metal fencing enveloping the property. There’s also a large, private screen porch behind house, which opens to an inviting courtyard that’s imaginatively landscaped, and has a mossy sitting area enveloped by a small variety of bamboo, a dining area, an outdoor shower, and a brick paved area screened by confederate jasmine. The lush landscape would please a master gardener! Returning inside, the downstairs common area, adjacent to the back porch & courtyard, reveals a magazine-quality kitchen with large island and pendent island, and abundance of cabinetry/storage, pantry closet, stainless appliances, tile backsplash, all open to the dining area, and a living room with fireplace and exposed wood beams on ceiling. Throughout the house, most windows have remote control shades that can be controlled by a phone app, Lutron dimmable switches for lighting, and Nest powered cameras around the exterior ( as well as landscape accent lighting ). The laundry room features a stacked, front load washer/dryer and laundry sink, as well as generous storage. The 2 car garage is accessed by a rear alley and has 2 additional outdoor parking spaces. The garage has an electric car charger, and has storage shelving installed. This sanctuary home/location needs to be seen in person for full application. Oh, behind the house is a communal green space, a veritable mini-park, where the residents of this unique in-town pocket neighborhood seem to regularly gather, and enjoy each other’s company.
