About 2790 Old Farmington Rd
Charming and lovingly restored vintage home in the heart of historic Farmington and South Oconee County. Farmington is ideally situated between Athens, Madison, and Greensboro and close to downtown Watkinsville and Bishop. The home is within walking distance of a large green space park and baseball field. The large spacious yard is fenced on three sides and can easily be completed for a small farmette or hobby farm. The property has 2 wells. One is bored and the other one is drilled. The drilled well serves the house. You will love the old-fashioned landscaping that features gardenias and heirloom camellias. You will also enjoy the mature fruit trees of fig, mulberry, pear, apple, and pecan. You won't find this variety of fruit trees in a residential yard much these days. The sellers have installed new LVP flooring throughout. One bedroom does have original hardwood flooring. The kitchen has been remodeled and has all-new stainless steel appliances including a microwave. You will love the feel of the open kitchen with a serving bar and the complimentary fixtures with painted cabinets and rich wood accents and ceilings. The full bath was remodeled too with a new vanity, tub, and toilet. The house gets great sunlight which makes it feel open, warm, and inviting. The existing chimneys can take a wood-burning stove pipe if you want to add a wood-burning stove. Entertain your friends and family on the large deck overlooking the backyard. The outbuilding is very cool and large enough to have a studio, workshop, and/or storage. It also has power and water to it. One of the best parts is this home is in the highly sought-after High Shoals Elementary School district. This home is in move-in condition and can close quickly.
