Have your cake and eat it too with a nice short term rental as part of your residence, or if you need an in-law suite or just a separate quarters for a home business, look no further than this perfect close-in eastside property. Located in the super convenient Chamberlin subdivision, an established enclave full of large beautiful wooded lots, this low maintenance four-side brick home has amazing curb appeal, with a wooden pergola over the front porch and charming brick pathways throughout the yard. With nearly 3,000 square feet inside, this home is loaded with multiple large and inviting living spaces (if you entertain, holy cow, this house is for you!). Just view the floor plan and see what all you get at a price that kills. There's the living room, dining room, eat-in kitchen, den with a gorgeous brick fireplace, a massive sunken sunroom (so well-lit and just begging to be a huge artist's studio or home school setting), and a full laundry room with access to a separate apartment that also has its own exterior access at the driveway (which is new, amazing, and offers additional parking). A side hall leads from the living spaces to 3 bedrooms and a hall bath, with one of the bedrooms being an en suite with a private bathroom. The attached 1 bed/1 full bath apartment can be rented or connected back to the main part of the house. The current owner can demonstrate strong rental history, so be ready to make some money!

Washer and dryer stay! Too much more to list, so we'll let the pictures speak for themselves. Outdoor living spaces include a nicely updated front porch and large wrap-around back deck overlooking the spacious and shaded back yard. And last but certainly not least, the property backs up to Barnett Shoals Elementary School. Enjoy private hedge access to the fields behind the school for running and playing, like an extension of the backyard (weekends and evenings absolutely call you out into the multipurpose fields direct from your own private pathway). A shed/artist studio in the back features a loft and provides more storage or opportunity for finished space. Walking distance to Athens Montessori School, just five minutes from the UGA vet school and several local grocery stores and shops, 10 minutes to the main UGA campus, and 15 minutes to downtown Athens, this location cannot be beat.
