Two homes, one extraordinary property - set on five private acres in the rolling countryside of Bishop, just minutes from Athens, 1820 Clover Lane is the kind of property that stops you before you even reach the front door. The approach says everything — a sweeping circular drive, black board fencing, manicured grounds, and a white modern farmhouse that delivers on every inch of its promise. At 4,196 square feet across four bedrooms and four and a half baths, the main residence is built for both everyday living and serious entertaining. The kitchen features custom cabinetry, a large center island with quartz countertops, double wall ovens, and a pot filler — open to a bright dining area with views across the pasture. The covered outdoor living area is exceptional: a cathedral tongue-and-groove ceiling, stone fireplace, mounted TV, and views of the saltwater heated pool, hot tub, and open Georgia countryside. The fully detached guest house sits at the end of its own private drive and is a complete home in every sense — 1,273 square feet with two bedrooms, two full baths, a full kitchen, living room, and laundry. It has generated consistent short-term rental income with UGA-related guests, and given its proximity to the UGA Equestrian Center, the demand is only going to grow. The barn is equally well-appointed: an RV-sized bay with electric garage door, a finished woodworking shop, and a full bathroom. A 38,000-kilowatt whole-property generator backs up both residences, the barn, and the chicken coop — nothing goes dark. The vegetable gardens, fruit trees, beehives, and chicken coop complete a property that functions as beautifully as it photographs. Bishop, Georgia — 10 minutes to Athens and private schools, top Oconee County public schools nearby, UGA campus under 20 minutes, Lake Oconee and the Ritz-Carlton 45 minutes away, and Atlanta airport 1 hour 15 minutes. Five acres, two residences, and a way of living genuinely hard to find this close to everything.

5 ACRE, RIVERFRONT OCONEE COUNTY ESTATE. Welcome to Bishop, Georgia where quiet isn't empty, it's luxury...here life slows down in all the right ways. This amazing property offers something increasingly rare: space to breathe, room to grow, and the kind of stillness you didn't know you missed. River Run is a cul de sac street lined with estate homes that enjoy privacy without isolation. Equally distanced from the beautiful city of Madison and subtle town of Watkinsville, there is no lack of local conveniences close by this rural retreat. The home itself is a showcase with a rhythm rather than a layout. It breaks from the expected grid, trading straight lines for lived in flow and flare. Upon formal entry on the second level, you aren't just dumped into the home, you're introduced to its rhythm. The floor plan unfolds with intention, creating an immediate presence with cinematic views, spiral staircase, and a curve where you'd expect a corner. The design offers layered living, multiple spaces stretch out like chapters instead of one big headline, giving each moment it's on setting- cooking that feels social, lounging that feels intentional, dining that feels like an occasion even on a Tuesday. Additionally, the second level hosts a large, private guest wing or in-law suite. The primary suite is on the terrace level and is positioned as a true escape not an extension of a hallway. The kitchen, also on the terrace level anchors the home like a gathering point should. Sightlines drift instead of march, guiding you from social to private spaces without announcement. Bedrooms aren't stacked like afterthoughts, they're placed with purpose, creating separation where it matters and connection where it counts. Opposite the guest wing and accessible by a second, dedicated staircase are 3 secondary bedrooms with flex spaces, walk-in closets and shared bathroom. Here you won't find traditional or conventional, you'll find your platform and personality. Here you have more than a home, you have an estate property, a tranquil setting, private acreage, a river with deep water access for private fishing and kayaking. Professionally landscaped front lawn with river rock and shade trees, rail post and hog wire side borders, and an automated gated entrance bring this estate to an elevated level of living.
