About 285 Gran Ellen Drive

Tucked into the heart of Five Points, this charming 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath cottage is full of character and possibility. Aged pine paneling surrounds the front room, and combined with the hardwood floors and fireplace, gives off the relaxing vibes of a mountain retreat. This space opens onto a screened porch for year-round enjoyment. It has enough space for morning coffee, drinks with friends, entertaining a larger group-it's perfect! Meander into the sunny kitchen and look out on the partially fenced backyard. There are two light-filled bedrooms, a full bath, and a half bath, offering comfortable, easy living. At the front of the property, a converted garage offers a bonus of privacy from the street while adding flexible space full of potential. Already wired with electrical, it's ready to become a home office or creative studio, and with the addition of plumbing, could even be transformed into a rental suite down the road. And the location can't be beat. Just a stone's throw from Memorial Park and the Birchmore Trails, this home is perfect for morning walks, dog outings, or trail runs right out your front door. Five Points is known for its walkable, tree-lined streets, beloved local shops and restaurants, and that unmistakable small-town-in-the-city feel. Grab coffee, stroll to dinner, or bike to campus, Athens living at its most charming. Affordable Five Points homes like this one are increasingly rare. This is truly a treasure, and an opportunity not to be missed.
