For Sale - Active
Units n/a

The perfect combination of West Georgia charm and tranquility awaits in this 18 acre escape. Hidden from the road you'll find the 3 bed, 2 bath home is a 4 sided brick ranch with a partial utility basement for convenience. The main entry offers a formal keeping/living area separate from the cozy living room with the original brick fireplace. Enjoy the fresh air on the open front porch or the screened in back deck. The shop with a lean-to is a short stroll down the hill waiting for you to restore it to a functional workshop, home office, or guest room. Through the fence is a field shed for hay and equipment storage, and a trail leading to your own private pond! Call your favorite agent for a tour and make this country escape yours!
