This listing includes a second buildable lot! By far one of the coolest homes and lots in Beechwood, a true in-town tight-knit community on the edge of campus and in the thick of everything Athens has to offer. This home has been lovingly maintained by the current owner and has been owned by UGA professors throughout its rich history. PLUS, this is an incredible value as the property features a 0.74 acre additional buildable lot! A blend of mid-century modern and traditional architecture, 775 Riverhill Dr is set up for entertaining and family life. The versatility of floor plan makes for wonderful multiple work from home environments while never compromising on bedrooms and living spaces. Two full en suites on main along with two more bedrooms and a hall bath, and another bedroom and full bath on the terrace level. Main floor boasts a cook's kitchen with high-end stainless appliances, including counter depth commercial fridge, double wall ovens, 5 burner gas cook top, sleek floating vent hood, built-in buffet and eat-in area. Main floor also boasts a large bright living room with view to the gardens on the terrace level, an expansive dining room with French door access to a private side patio for grilling, dining al fresco, and morning coffee. Side hall access to a walk-in pantry, large laundry with utility sink, a built-in home secretary desk, and a built-in drop zone at the end of the hall by the side-door. Both en suites on main are uniquely inviting, bright, and private, both with additional sitting areas and views of the gardens. Terrace Level steps right out onto the immense flagstone patio overlooking mature, low maintenance gardens filled with meandering trails, inviting outdoor living spaces, like large decks with overlooks and more patio-style spaces, and anchoring all this is a babbling brook/waterfall terminating into a deep koi pond below. The sound of the falls can be heard throughout the gardens as well as from above in two of the main floor bedrooms with sliding door access to a balcony overlooking the gardens. Terrace Level boasts an expansive den with a fireplace, indoor grilling nook, and built-in bar area, a sunroom with an additional walk-up wet bar and more built-ins for cocktails on the patio, multiple workshop and flex spaces, as well as the last bedroom and full hall bathroom. Many improvements and updates over the years include updates to the bathrooms, kitchen, appliances, HVAC, roof, water heaters, electrical, and much more. The adjacent buildable lot is included in this sale, and while it is currently incorporated into the lot with the house, it is easily parceled off if desired, but more than likely you'd want to turn this place into a family compound by adding a second home for multi-generational living, a guest house, or an income producing second home. Will stop here, but please request the brag sheet from the listing broker and schedule your tour asap. You will not want to leave...
