Description

Located in Five Points, one of Athens most sought-after neighborhoods, this timeless Colonial offers the rare combination of historic charm, thoughtful updates, and exceptional land value, all on over 1.15 acres across two separate lots. Built in 1953 by Mathis Construction company, it was the longtime home of Dorothy 'Dot' Linker. Inside, you’ll find beautiful hardwood floors throughout and carefully curated renovations that honor the home’s original character while providing modern comfort. The main living spaces offer warmth and versatility, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is the heart of the home and features a double oven, brand new gas range and dishwasher and ample counter space. It's open to the dining room that has the original built ins and bay window. Off the kitchen there is a half bath and the owner's suite. The owner's suite has its own laundry closet and the ensuite bathroom was renovated to return to the original style of the bathroom, but there is plenty of room for a double vanity and/or soaking tub. The living room is warm and inviting and features built in book cases, a gas fireplace and access to the screened porch and back deck. Upstairs, you’ll find three spacious bedrooms, including: A private bedroom with its own en-suite bath, two additional bedrooms that share a hall bathroom and a large unfinished attic offering incredible potential. Sitting on an unfinished basement you have room for storage and a drive under two car garage. The screened porch and back deck overlook your very private backyard and are the perfect spot to relax with your coffee in the mornings. The opportunity to have two separate lots with two driveways opens the door to endless possibilities: build an additional residence, guest house, or simply enjoy the rare luxury of acreage in-town. The home also features a new roof and water heater that were replaced in 2026. Opportunities like this are few and far between, all minutes from the best dining, shopping, and UGA's campus.
