265 E State St

Video tour available: https://youtu.be/-Zuxh4pSZtA . It’s especially Athenian to desire a home located a short walking distance to basic amenities, and you can’t beat 265 East State for its “walkability.” Just steps away you’ll find Kindred Market (a full-service organic grocery), The Village Bakery (bakery and cafe), The Athens Bread Company (bakery and panini shop), a soon-to-be renovated elementary school, and a city bus stop. You barely need a car, but if you do you can park it in the turnaround driveway and avoid backing out into the street. Inside this home you’ll appreciate the 4 bedrooms, plus a bonus office space off the dining room, one and one-half bathrooms, a sun porch, and a second (“servant’s”) staircase in the rear of the home. All feature the sumptuous wood floors and wood trim characteristic of a home of this era. And the drawbacks of said era have been fixed; sellers have modernized the electrical wiring, replaced most of the home’s windows with new double-pane windows, and replaced the furnace and AC (2004 and 2011 respectively). Deer-proofed raised garden beds in the side yard round out the features of this excellent Athenian home
