Property Description

This custom 3BR/2.5BA riverfront home is centrally located just minutes from UGA, Five Points, and downtown Athens. Inside, you’ll find natural maple hardwoods, tile, and Hydropel hickory flooring. The front office includes soundproofing for remote work, while the kitchen boasts matte cloud quartz countertops, a 7.5-foot island, KitchenAid black stainless appliances, a dual-energy range, and a 48-inch commercial-grade sink. The highlight of the living area is a swiveling, German-engineered wood-burning stove. On the main level, the primary suite opens to the back deck and features a spa-like bath with a freestanding tub, oversized rainfall shower, walk-in closet, and custom-tiled accent wall. Custom-built stairs lead to the lower level, which offers a large entertainment/playroom, two spacious bedrooms, a tiled full bath, ample storage, and a walkout patio with river views. Built for both beauty and efficiency, the home features 2x6 framing with spray foam insulation, a standing seam metal roof, Hardy board siding, energy-efficient Pella windows, and one of the county’s lowest blower door test scores. Each room includes individual climate control with high-end mini-split systems, along with a whole-house ERV system for superior air quality. Additional highlights include Trex decking with aluminum rails, a spacious porch with tongue-and-groove pine ceilings, French doors opening to an expansive deck, a fully waterproof foundation with an automated sump pump system, and a front yard pollinator meadow. Unique details such as a handmade powder room sink by local artist Rob Sutherland further set this home apart. This custom-built residence is a rare blend of sustainability, design, and comfort—move-in ready and built to last.
