About this home

An inviting combination of comfort, flexibility, and carefree living awaits in The Woodlands of Athens. This upper-level condo has been refreshed with a crisp new interior palette and brand-new plush carpeting, creating a warm and welcoming backdrop for its spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bath layout. The floor plan is especially appealing, offering a private bedroom and full bath on the main level. Hardwood floors enhance the living spaces, where French doors welcome you into a spacious living area accented by custom built-in shelving and open seamlessly to the dining area and kitchen. The kitchen features a raised breakfast bar and complete appliance package, creating a functional space that connects naturally with the adjoining living and dining areas. The upper level introduces two generously proportioned primary suite options, each with vaulted ceilings, ample closet space and its own full bath. The versatile layout offers comfortable accommodations for everyday living, guests, or a flexible home office or personal space. When it's time to enjoy the outdoors, The Woodlands offers an amenity package designed to make everyday life feel like a getaway, from the resort-style pool and beach volleyball court to the expansive clubhouse, sidewalks, and walking trails. Gated surroundings and convenient trash drop-off add to the ease of ownership, while the convenient East Athens location places you within 5 miles of both Downtown Athens and the University of Georgia. Combining a refreshed interior, versatile layout, resort-style amenities, and a location close to the best of Athens, this condo offers an easy and enjoyable way to call Athens home.
