About 169 Fortson Cir

Welcome to 169 Fortson Circle, a location that is one of Five Points best kept secrets, offering unmatched privacy, convenience, and style all bundled together at one amazing address. As soon as you pull up, you'll recognize the approach taken to maintain the home's timeless character while introducing a modern aesthetic that welcomes and relaxes. Reimagined with a focus on entertaining, the expansive gourmet kitchen blends seamlessly with the open living area and the dining room, providing uninhibited flow through the most prominent areas of the home. The dining table is framed on two sides by walls full of picture windows, bringing in tons of natural light while allowing guests a view into the tranquil interior courtyard behind the home. The third wall of the dining area is highlighted by a floor to ceiling wine rack with LED backlighting that will undoubtedly catch everyone's eye. Continuing on the main level you'll not only find a well crafted master suite with bed and bath both overlooking the backyard and pool, but also three other spacious bedrooms, one of which features a private bathroom. Slip upstairs through a hidden stairway and be surprised with a bed/bath suite nestled away in the partial attic, then when you venture all the way down to the finished basement, you'll find yet another! For those hosting guests where even more space is needed, the basement recreation area, with daylight windows and exterior entry, will put you steps from the patio and swimming pool waiting right outside. Sitting by the poolside or out on the covered screened porch, you'll never believe you're in the heart of Athens, as the pristine landscape of this quiet corner lot makes you feel like you truly have found a sanctuary of your very own.
