200 Lake Street

In-Town, New Construction, 3/2.5 home in the Cottages at Hilltop, an enclave of charming cottages with historic design elements, with 6-7 acres of communal greenspace, located within walk/bike distance of Downtown Athens, UGA, and the River/Greenway Trails network of walk/bike paths. This community is within a block of a pocket park, 5-Acre Woods, and Williams Farm, an educational and community service farm run by the Athens Land Trust. 200 Lake Street features a very efficiently designed floor plan, with an abundance of natural light, and is a low maintenance, energy efficient home. The 1st floor is essentially open, common living area with a stylish kitchen which features: a large island with pendant lighting, quartz counters, tile backsplash, a pantry, and stainless appliances. Additionally, the 1st floor consists of a front porch, LR, DR, 1/2 bath, laundry room, hallway to side door, & slider glass doors to back patio. Upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, including a master suite with tray ceiling, a large walk-in closet, and sleek bath with subway tile shower, & glass door. The floors throughout the home are highly durable LVP, which look like wood, though isn’t vulnerable to moisture or seasonal movement, and are easy to maintain. The lawn has an irrigation system, sod lawn, and an array of foundation plantings. Parking is behind the house, accessed by an alley, and on the other side of the alley is the communal greenspace, ideal for recreational area or outdoor gatherings. This is a very central in-town location, just blocks from the Athens Loop, and it essentially offers a straight path thru the heart of Downtown, on College Avenue, culminating at the UGA Arches, the entrance to UGA’s historic North campus. Along this path, it intersects with the River Greenway Trail, a labyrinth of evolving bike-walk trails that connect with the Firefly Trails, multiple Intown parks, and Sandy Creek nature center.
