Property Description
A rare opportunity to own a private retreat on 12.61 acres in Athens, GA, just minutes from the University of Georgia, Downtown Athens, and all the shopping and dining the Classic City has to offer. 1805 Morton Rd blends craftsmanship with peaceful, wooded surroundings-offering the feel of a secluded estate while remaining close to everyday conveniences. This 4BR/2.5BA custom Craftsman home is filled with warmth and character, featuring knotty pine floors, exposed timber framing, vaulted ceilings, and abundant natural light. The main living space opens seamlessly to a screened porch and expansive deck, ideal for entertaining or enjoying the quiet canopy of trees. The kitchen is both functional and striking, with custom cabinetry, soapstone countertops, a gas range, and a natural-edge bar connecting the home's gathering spaces. The primary suite offers a private retreat with spa-like finishes, heated slate floors, and direct deck access. Upstairs, a one-of-a-kind loft with wraparound built-in window seating and hidden storage adds charm and flexibility, while the terrace level provides additional bedrooms and versatile space for guests, recreation, or a home office. Outside, the lifestyle continues with a screened porch, full-length deck, and covered patio-perfect for year-round outdoor living-along with a well-appointed 3-stall horse barn and fenced pastures, making this an exceptional horse property in Athens, GA. Solar panels enhance efficiency and long-term value. Properties offering this level of acreage, privacy, craftsmanship, and proximity to UGA and Downtown Athens rarely come to market-this one checks every box.
