About this home
Set on approximately 1.79 wooded acres, 245 Homestead Drive offers the space, character and privacy that can be hard to find. This 3 bedroom, 2 bath ranch blends the warmth of an established home with thoughtful renovations, including an updated kitchen, renovated bathrooms, newer flooring and newer HVAC. Inside, hardwood floors and abundant natural light carry through the floor plan with multiple living spaces. The renovated kitchen features white cabinetry, wood countertops, stainless appliances, herringbone-pattern backsplash and ample storage, with a bright breakfast nook overlooking the backyard. A separate dining room provides additional space for entertaining. The home includes both a spacious living room and a large family room centered around a full-height brick fireplace, offering plenty of room to gather, relax, work from home or create a dedicated play area. Both bathrooms have been recently refreshed with clean, modern finishes. Outdoor living is one of the property's strongest features. A large screened porch overlooks the wooded backyard and provides an inviting space for dining, entertaining or quiet mornings outside. The nearly two-acre property includes mature hardwoods, fenced yard areas, a two-car carport and multiple outbuildings, including a substantial detached workshop with concrete floor, workbench space and storage. With its combination of acreage, updates, flexible living areas and distinctive character, 245 Homestead Drive offers a comfortable Athens lifestyle with room to spread out both indoors and out. Located conveniently near Whit Davis Elementary, the property offers a wooded residential setting while remaining close to East Athens amenities. For buyers looking for something beyond a generic renovation, 245 Homestead has a distinct sense of style, usable acreage and a layout that feels both interesting and highly livable.
