179 Steepleview Drive, Athens

Five minutes from Five Points, tucked into Glenview - a relaxed, refined pocket of artistically built homes that blend Southern charm with modern amenities that outdo most anything nearby. Clubhouse, gym, pool and yard work are included to make this home about as close to lock-and-leave as it gets. The wraparound porch is the first sell: rocking chairs, a ceiling fan, enough room to actually sit and enjoy. Inside, the kitchen carries the house - white shaker cabinets, subway tile, a full KitchenAid suite, and a butcher block island big enough to cook and gather around. Open shelving and a farmhouse sink make it feel like the place you want to linger long after the meals are done. The living room is built around a fireplace with a live-edge mantel, and it opens straight into sunroom-style spaces on either side - an office, a dining room, whatever you need more light for. Wide-plank floors carry throughout the whole main level. The primary is on the main floor with its own spa-quality bath retreat, so day-to-day living never touches the stairs. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms and a full bath - its own wing for guests or kids. Three bedrooms, two and a half baths, a detached two-car garage in a neighborhood that rarely turns over - Five Points access at a price Five Points itself doesnt offer anymore.
