Property Description

This beautiful and artistically updated craftsman-prairie style home in the historic district of Lexington sits on an acre on the best street in this charming town, only 20 minutes East of Athens. Built in 1918, this extraordinary house had been owned by the same family until it was purchased by the current owners a year ago. The careful renovation kept the original patina of the property's first hundred years intact. A generous covered front porch with granite columns and an oversized half light front door welcome you into this serene gracious home. You enter into the large 16 x 20' living room and to the left is the 16 x 16' dining room complete with original Wainscot and built in. Most windows have the original wavy glass most all the original details are intact. The rooms in the house are generously proportioned with 10+foot ceilings. Wide oak plank floors are throughout the house with marble mosaic bathrooms. A spacious crosswise running hallway finished in a unique encaustic tile connects the main rooms of the house. Afternoon light fills the cooks kitchen which has wood beamed ceilings, new stainless steel appliances, including a 36-inch dual fuel range, and a walk-in pantry/laundry. Off the kitchen is a breakfast room with a wet bar and an adorable half bath. Three large light filled bedrooms each has their own original non-functioning fireplace. The primary suite has a en suite master closet/ bath with dual bookshelf vanities, and an extraordinary freestanding tub on marble mosaic floors. The house has a secret bonus, it's unfinished attic has 14 foot ceilings at the peak and has the potential of delivering another 12OO to 1600 SQ feet of living space. The addition of two more bedrooms and a family room plus a bathroom are real possibilities. Outside the home is surrounded by magnificent historic homes all in a park like setting. It's closest neighbor, which just sold for over $300,000, is currently receiving a complete top to bottom renovation. The street is very quiet and a great place to view stars at night. Downtown Lexington is going through a slow but sure Renaissance with the promise of new features growing every day! The Rowdy Rooster open on Fridays and Saturdays is packed with the towns wonderful inhabitants ranging from the original gentry to quirky artists and retired UGA faculty. The homes unique original and rare architectural style along with its 10 +foot ceilings, large light filled rooms with large windows and updated with a cooks kitchen, premium materials including engineered wide oak floors, ceramic and encaustic tile, marble, a new roof and complete mechanical updates, make this well beyond the standard renovation and a must see! An extraordinary value proposition for anyone looking for a historic home in the Athens area.
