The backyard at 297 Meeler Circle doesnt just look good it feels good. Terraced and thoughtfully landscaped, it draws you out with the hush of a bubbling fountain, an extended deck made for deep conversations, and the kind of privacy thats rare in a neighborhood. The fenced yard slopes gently into wide green space protected, HOA-owned, and untouched by builders. No back neighbors. Just trees, open sky, and the hush of a backyard that minds its own business. Built in 2019 and situated on an exterior lot, this West Athens home makes the most of its nearly 2,500 square feet. A two-story foyer opens into a sunlit living room anchored by a wood burning fireplace and grounded with updated lighting. The separate dining room sits just off the entry, open to the living room easy to dress up or keep casual. And around the corner? A kitchen with a modern palette, energy-conscious electric range, and a breakfast nook where the morning light shows up on time. The shape of it all makes sense an L-formed flow from dining to living to kitchen that feels both connected and defined. Tucked off the main floor, the primary suite is newly carpeted and set apart with a tray ceiling, a generous walk-in closet, and a bathroom with soaking tub energy even if youre short on time. Upstairs, three more bedrooms each with its own walk-in surround a shared double vanity bath designed for real-life mornings. Storage? Not a problem. Theres a no-squeeze laundry room just off the kitchen, now upgraded with upper cabinets, plus multiple linen closets, a large storage closet, and a lined attic space with easy access right at the top of the stairs. Even the garage is ahead of the game fully insulated to guard against rare cold snaps, cracked pipes, and seasonal clutter chaos. And while the backyard isnt huge, it absolutely pulls its weight: a tiled and covered patio for year-round lounging, a freshly built sun deck perfect for umbrella-shaded lunches or weekend grilling, deer netting already installed, and a small shed for tools or overflow. Landscaping is already in place but its designed to be enjoyed, not fussed over. The deer netting is done, the hardscaping is solid, and theres just enough space to potter, plant, or kick a ball without dedicating your weekends to yard work. Its a compact space that knows how to work smart. The engineered hardwoods downstairs are in excellent condition, with tile in the bathrooms and cozy carpet upstairs where it makes sense. Lake Meeler is a small, quiet neighborhood in Clarke County about 15 minutes to downtown Athens and just a quick hop to Normaltowns favorite spots. Residents enjoy access to a peaceful community lake and a covered pavilion complete with picnic tables for impromptu dinners, weekend gatherings, or simply watching the water ripple. Akademia Brewing Company is a mile away, with a full restaurant and family-friendly vibe, and Sams Club is just up the street for everyday essentials. Need to branch out? The Loop is just minutes away, connecting you quickly to Jennings Mill Country Club, Prince Avenue Christian School, and Watkinsvilles shops and restaurants. And for those who commute or crave a large city fix, Atlanta is only an hour down the road. With low annual HOA dues that help maintain the sidewalks, entryway, shared green space, and community lake and pavilion, this one keeps your to-do list short and your weekends wide open.
