    Custom built-insColor-rich sunroomWelcoming brick pathwayStately four-sided brick residenceFormal dining roomOriginal glass-front china cabinets
    Tucked into one of Athens’ most storied and beloved neighborhoods, this classic Georgian home effortlessly blends 1930s charm with thoughtful modern updates. Just a short stroll to downtown, Five Points, and the University of Georgia, the location offers an exceptional sense of connection, walkability, and community. A welcoming brick pathway leads to the stately four-sided brick residence, where timeless character is ever present. Inside, a gracious living room anchored by a gas fireplace and custom built-ins creates a warm, refined gathering space. The home flows beautifully into a formal dining room, where original glass-front china cabinets frame the opening, and into a color-rich sunroom—perfect as a home office or living space. The main level includes a spacious primary suite with two closets and a renovated bath with frameless glass shower and soaking tub. Rich hardwoods run through primary living areas. The kitchen features custom cabinetry, quartz counters, tile backsplash, updated appliances, and a built-in breakfast bar that opens to a cozy sitting area and large brick patio overlooking the backyard. Upstairs are two well-proportioned bedrooms with built-in dressers, a shared bath, and flexible spaces with potential for an additional bath. The fully fenced, level sodded yard is beautifully maintained, with lush planting beds and mature trees providing screening that complement the home's historic aesthetic. Parking is ample, with the ability to park two cars side by side in the driveway and additional permitted street parking. A renovated ~800 sq ft guest cottage with vaulted ceilings, exposed brick and beams, full kitchen, bedroom, bath, and separate utility metering offers versatile use as guest quarters, office, or rental. Combining historic character, modern comfort, and an unbeatable walkable location, this Henderson Avenue residence is a rare Athens treasure!
