Property Description

Welcome home to this beautifully maintained 3 bedroom, 2 bath ranch in Athens offering easy, single level living in the established Carrington Plantation community. From the moment you step inside, you'll appreciate the smooth ceilings, crown molding, and durable, high-quality laminate flooring that flows throughout the main living areas. Just off the foyer, a separate formal dining room creates the perfect space for holiday dinners, dinner parties, or even a stylish home office setup. The kitchen is light and inviting, featuring crisp white cabinetry paired with rich soapstone-toned countertops - a timeless combination that feels both fresh and functional. The spacious family room is designed for comfort, with trey ceilings adding architectural interest and a cozy wood burning fireplace ready for cool Georgia evenings. Step outside to a generously sized back deck overlooking a fully fenced backyard - ideal for pets, play, or weekend gatherings. And here's the fun part: tucked at the back of the property you'll find a charming she-shed or greenhouse space, perfect for gardening enthusiasts, hobbyists, or anyone craving a creative retreat. The popular split bedroom layout provides privacy, with the owner's suite thoughtfully positioned on one side of the home. This relaxing retreat features trey ceilings, a large walk in closet, and an ensuite bath complete with extended double vanities, a private water closet, and a separate garden tub for soaking the day away. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath are located on the opposite side, offering comfort and flexibility for family or guests.
