Property Description

Nearly 4,600 square feet with a finished basement, exceptional privacy and a beautifully landscaped setting-right in the heart of Oconee County! Tucked away at the quiet back of Morningside, this 5BR/4.5BA home offers something increasingly hard to find-the convenience of an established neighborhood with the privacy, natural beauty and sense of space of a country property. Surrounded by mature hardwoods, the home feels remarkably secluded and connected at the same time! Extensive landscaping, stonework and mature plantings create beautiful outdoor spaces including a large flagstone patio, covered rear deck, tree-swing garden and winding paths through the property. Inside, hardwood floors, abundant natural light and generous living spaces create a comfortable, functional home. The kitchen features an induction cooktop, double ovens and updated appliances, while the main-level primary suite includes an oversized frameless-glass shower. The finished basement level is anything but ordinary, with 10 ceilings, abundant daylight, private exterior entrance, full bath, kitchenette, flexible guest/living space, extensive storage and a true home theater with projector and reclining theater seating-ideal for guests, extended family, recreation or independent living. Perhaps the best part is the location: secluded when youre home, remarkably connected when youre not. North Oconee schools, Oconee Veterans Park, Epps Bridge shopping and dining, downtown Watkinsville and Athens are all just minutes away. A truly special combination of privacy, setting, space and convenience. For walkers & runners, the neighborhood has sidewalks throughout and a 1 mile loop great for laps!
