    Welcome to 552 Cobb Street—an iconic Cobbham residence where Athens history and understated luxury meet. Originally crafted in 1908 by celebrated artist Lucy May Stanton, this Georgian-style home is as much a statement piece as it is a sanctuary. Set gracefully above the street, the home offers a sense of privacy and presence, with 2,452 square feet of thoughtfully curated living space. Inside, timeless architectural details—soaring ceilings, expansive windows, and elegant proportions—create an atmosphere that feels both elevated and effortlessly livable. Natural light pours through the living spaces, highlighting the home’s historic character while complementing its modern updates. The kitchen has been tastefully reimagined to balance form and function, seamlessly blending contemporary convenience with classic design. Upstairs, four bedrooms and two and a half baths provide a refined retreat, offering flexibility for guests, creative spaces, or a sophisticated work-from-home environment. A spacious laundry and drop zone adds a layer of everyday luxury—because practicality should still feel polished. Two staircases and dual foyers lend a sense of quiet grandeur and flow, a nod to the home’s heritage while enhancing modern livability. Outdoors, a private backyard and rear alley access offer both serenity and convenience, including off-street parking—an uncommon luxury in this historic setting. Behind the scenes, all major systems—wiring, plumbing, roof, and HVAC—have been updated, allowing you to enjoy the beauty of a historic home with the confidence of modern infrastructure. 552 Cobb Street is more than a residence—it’s a rare offering. A place where artistry, history, and refined living come together in one of Athens’ most coveted neighborhoods.
