A Storied Sanctuary in the Heart of Watkinsville Nestled on over two lush and secluded acres, this exquisitely restored residence is a rare offering - where timeless elegance meets modern refinement. Originally built in the 1930s and masterfully reimagined in 2018, the home is a graceful homage to its heritage, embodying the craftsmanship and character of a bygone era while embracing the comforts of contemporary living.

The homes layout flows effortlessly from the expansive great room to the dining room and chefs kitchen, creating a setting equally suited for everyday living and refined entertaining. At the heart of the home, the professionally outfitted kitchen is a culinary masterpiece, featuring custom leathered granite countertops, floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, artisan tile backsplash, and top-of-the-line appliances. European-style display shelving adds a curated elegance, while the adjoining butlers pantry replete with wine cooler, butcher block countertops and original porcelain sink - doubles as a charming laundry, baking, or bar area. The sun-drenched great room serves as the homes central gathering place, anchored by a masonry fireplace and original metal-framed picture window offering tranquil views of the courtyard. A custom-built media center and seamless access to the spacious screened porch complete this inviting space. The primary suite is a serene retreat, thoughtfully set apart for privacy and peacefulness. Accented by a vaulted wood ceiling and ship-lap paneled walls, the suite features a cozy stone gas fireplace, a custom alcove for a king-sized bed, and a beautifully appointed ensuite bath with dual vanities, quartz countertops, and a frameless glass walk-in shower clad in marble. A generous walk-in closet with custom shelving provides ample storage. Two additional bedrooms and a fully renovated bath are located at the opposite end of the home, each bathed in natural light and offering generous closet space. The pristine basement/cellar is ideal for additional storage or flexible use. Outdoors, the magic continues. Step from the screened porch into a landscaped oasis, where mature trees create a dappled canopy, and a backyard custom ornamental fence encloses a private garden haven with a fire pit perfect for quiet evenings under the stars. This rare offering also includes a detached garage, professional landscaping, and countless thoughtful details that elevate the propertys allure. Ideally located just a short stroll from the heart of downtown Watkinsville, the home enjoys close-proximity to acclaimed local dining, boutique shops, and beloved green spaces including Harris Shoals Park, Watkinsville Woods, and the 100-acre Thomas Farm Preserve.
