About 1221 Knob Creek Dr
This stately and spectacular Oconee County home with an Athens address. Super close to 5 Points, UGA, Loop 10 and more, it's ideal for enjoying an Oconee County lifestyle with the convenience of Athens' amenities and a limited commute. Literally everything has been done to make this home comfortable, practical and pleasing. It lives well with an open concept floor plan, plenty of living spaces, closets, storage spaces, etc. Great for those times when you all want to hang together and great for those times when you need to break away and have some time apart. This home features refinished hardwood floors (matte finish), fresh carpet (upgraded carpet and super cushy pad) and paint, new lighting, new fireplace surround, new doorknobs and hinges-basically everything is attractively restored. This applies to the mechanicals too-3 HVACs (2016, 2020, 2024), new architectural roof (2021), 2 water heaters (1 new), new TREX deck with stairs leading to the backyard, plantation shutters, new landscaping, and more. When it comes to gathering together, this house does it exceedingly well. The generous great room has a wood burning fireplace (gas start), high ceilings and is open to the dining area. The kitchen is a cook's dream with a 6 burner Viking gas cooktop, Subzero fridge/freezer, 2 built-in Wolf convection ovens and a Wolf warming drawer, and, of course, the coveted Scotsman ice maker. Of course, the finished basement has a second Kitchenette as well so this house easily doubles as a home for multiple generations. Also in the basement is a 3rd car garage (with power door opener), bedroom, bathroom, and 2 additional living spaces (great for those slumber parties yall). The primary suite (complete with office) is on the main floor and has private access to the deck, while upstairs are 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and a bonus room. Of course, not to be missed is the fabulous deck (plumbed for gas so that a fire pit table is an easy addition) which overlooks the private backyard bordering Knob Creek. The neighborhood has limited street lighting which limits light pollution and makes for some great star-gazing on those crystal clear cool fall nights. A truly exceptional home and in fantastic condition, this move in ready option is one of a kind.
