Welcome to 159 Ruby Lane, a beautifully refreshed old-school Georgia farmhouse offering 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, and true country living on a full 1-acre lot in Ware County, just outside of Waycross. With fresh interior paint, brand-new flooring throughout, a crisp white kitchen, and the kind of mature shade trees you only find on established land, this home is the rare combination of move-in ready and authentically charming. Step inside to a bright, open layout that flows seamlessly from the spacious living room into the kitchen — a true farmhouse-style heart of the home, perfect for everyday family living, hosting Sunday dinner, or sipping coffee while the kids run in the yard. The kitchen features classic white cabinetry, ample counter space, and abundant natural light from oversized windows. Both bedrooms are comfortably sized with brand-new flooring, and both bathrooms have been updated and refreshed. Outside is where this property really sets itself apart. The full acre offers room to garden, room for the kids and dogs to run, room for chickens or a small homestead setup if you want it, and plenty of space for future additions like a workshop, pole barn, or detached garage. The home features a classic covered front porch and a screened side porch — true southern living details that turn a house into a home. The property runs on well and septic, keeping monthly bills low and giving you the independence rural Ware County buyers seek. Located in Waycross, you're within easy reach of downtown Waycross shops and restaurants, Memorial Hospital of Waycross, Okefenokee Swamp Park, and major routes connecting you to Brunswick, the Georgia coast, and points beyond — all while enjoying the privacy, quiet, and slower pace that Ware County is known for. Affordable farmhouses on a full acre, move-in ready, in Ware County right at $154,000 are increasingly rare. Whether you're a first-time buyer stepping into homeownership, a young family seeking space and a yard, a retiree looking for a peaceful place to call home, or an investor seeking a clean rural rental, 159 Ruby Lane delivers exceptional value.
