Presenting the perfect mini-farm opportunity in the gently rolling south lands of Oconee County. Situated on a gracious 2.79 acre track adorned with a pastoral front yard, tree-lined drive and sweeping rocking-chair front porch is a classic, traditional home offering standout amenities. Boasting insightful infrastructure to host your own potential mini-farm, this fantastic property offers fencing plus cross fencing for housing animals, includes a shed with screened enclosure perfect for a garden of chicken coop, and also offers an additional detached garage with extended enclosure or potential storage if needed. The expansive foursquare home is designed in the formal style, providing designated rooms, creating a more personal atmosphere. Greeted by the foyer, the formal dining and living rooms flank either side, with the great room and kitchen spanning the rear. Bruce Hardwood flooring, double-paned windows accompanied by 2in. blinds, masonry fireplace and updated light fixtures throughout the living areas are just a few desirable features that adorn this flowing plan. The home chef can easily maintain their guest with only a pony wall separating the kitchen and great room. Upgraded with all the expected finishings, the kitchen is highlighted with custom stained cabinets, including an appliance garage, tile backsplash, gleaming granite counters that extend to the island, and an appliance package complete with the refrigerator. Tucked away on the main, providing a private entrance off the rear foyer is the perfect place to unwind at the end of a long day. Quite oversized, the owners suite is comprised with tons of space for a ensuite sitting area, as well as large furniture. This retreat also boasts double closets with shelving system, and primary full bath featuring a tile encased garden tub, granite-topped vanity and separate shower. This expansive plan overflows to the second floor where you will find four spacious bedrooms, two separate full baths and a bonus room. Each bedroom offers professional cleaned carpet, ceiling fan light fixtures, and ample closet space. The bonus room provides access to floored attic storage, as well as boasts the ideal spot for the 2nd floor living area, or would serve perfectly as a home office. If you need even more room to expand, you will be surprised to find that this home sits atop a full basement. Built like a storm shelter, this unique basement was created with wide-open rooms with poured concrete walls, and an exterior bulkhead storm door. There is even a built-in bar area adding a touch of charm. The living areas effortlessly extend to the exterior where you can relish time outdoors and take in the serenity of the territorial views while you relax on the oversized rear deck. This stately property presents many exciting opportunities and timeless appeal all within the award-winning Oconee School District.
