Property Description
Welcome to 2812 Helen Street, a charming 2-bedroom, 2-bath cottage nestled just outside the borders of the Summerville Historic District in Augusta's desirable Forest Hills neighborhood. This 1,223-square-foot hill cottage offers the best of both worlds: timeless character in a quiet, neighborly setting surrounded by some of the city's most beautiful estates. The home's unique style and scale make it a rare find in this area. The new roof ('25), HVAC ('17), and water heater('19) keep this property turn-key! Step inside to an inviting open layout filled with natural light. The living room's fireplace and built-in shelving highlight the home's historic charm, while the adjoining dining area and kitchen provide ample counter space and cabinetry for everyday living. The laundry and mudroom combination adds practicality and extra storage, with easy access to the fenced backyard. The owner's suite features a dressing room-style closet and private bath with a built-in vanity, offering a comfortable retreat. The second bedroom and full guest bath make the layout ideal for a small family, visiting guests, or a professional working from home. Additional storage is available in the walk-down basement, perfect for seasonal items or hobbies. Outside, enjoy a low-maintenance backyard with a lovely patio shaded by a stately oak tree, ideal for fall afternoons or weekend gatherings. The covered parking (a rare feature in this part of town) adds even more convenience. Life on Helen Street feels like perfection. Neighbors greet each other from wide front porches, golf carts head to dinner spots while kids walk to the Dairy Queen for a blizzard, and it's an easy bike ride to Augusta University, nearby churches, and local schools. If you're looking for a unique home with character, comfort, and an unbeatable location, 2812 Helen Street is a gem that offers it all.
