This unique 2BR,1BA home is a lovingly converted 19th century country church. Sensitive changes and renovations have made this little treasure a cozy home while highlighting the beautiful, historic charm of the original building. What was once the nave is now an open plan living/kitchen/dining area with 11+ foot ceilings. The tall, gothic eyebrow windows bathe the main space in light. The square footage has been wisely used to provide a generous bathroom with separate shower and deep soaking tub, as well as a bonus room that would make a wonderful den, office, or playroom. Enjoy the wooded surroundings beyond the fully-fenced yard from the comfort of the screened-in porch or adjoining deck. Established garden beds and a sturdy chicken coop across the flat of the yard will have you living the sweet country life, while only 15 minutes from Athens. This historic building's cottage charm will make a comfortable full-time home, vacation rental, or personal getaway. A must see property with unique features and appeal.
