About 269 Magnolia St
Welcome to this charming, vintage home in the heart of Athens! Located off Baxter Street, this delightful two-bedroom, one-bathroom residence offers a perfect blend of classic charm and updates, making it an ideal choice for first-time buyers, UGA students or investors. Step into the inviting kitchen, where ceramic tile flooring and tile backsplash create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Stainless steel appliances give the kitchen polish. Original hardwood floors in the living room, both bedrooms, and the hall add to this home's coziness and are easy to clean. The updated bathroom and laundry nook for a stacked washer-dryer round out this home's floor plan. The back entrance leads to a deck with room for chairs. This home's backyard, located on a deep in-town lot, also includes some privacy fencing, mature trees and a parking space. The white picket fence in the front yard adds to the home's charm. For those who enjoy a more active lifestyle, bike lanes provide a direct route to downtown Athens and UGA, making commuting by bike a breeze. Ample off-street parking is available, so you'll never have to worry about finding a spot. Centrally located, this property is just minutes from UGA's main campus and close to the Beechwood Shopping area, with all its stores and restaurants. Sidewalk streets and proximity to public transportation, including Athens-Clarke County bus routes 5, 6, and 20, make it easy to get around without a car. A block away from St. Mary's Hospital, this home is perfect for healthcare professionals or anyone who values being close to medical facilities. The property has been well-maintained, with a new roof installed in 2021, a newer water heater, and a recently sealed and maintained attic. The new front door and the fresh interior paint from 2021 add to the home's appeal, while the exterior and fence were painted in 2023. Recent yard work has improved drainage, ensuring the outdoor space remains in top condition and humidity is lowered for inside comfort. This home is virtually staged to provide a clear vision of its potential without showing the tenants' personal property. Don't miss the opportunity to own this delightful home in one of Athens' most desirable locations.
