If you are looking to ditch Manhattan for some countryside, but the thought of living in the boondocks is far from appealing, 1921 Old Bishop Road is the place to be. A charming homestead totaling 2.85 acres zoned for agricultural use includes a c.1900 main home, detached garage/workshop, two pole barns, fruit & Pecan trees, and a 100+ year old Magnolia. This property was originally part of Oconee's Thomas Orchards. Conveniently located less than five minutes to Downtown Watkinsville shopping + dining as well as the new mixed-use retail development, Wire Park. Whether utilizing the home and property as an event venue or keeping it as a private residence, there are many ways to enjoy all aspects of its quasi-country setting. To top it all off, this home is zoned for award winning Oconee County Schools! The home's exterior and interior have been updated throughout the years with more recent renovations to include the introduction of an open concept kitchen and living space creating a Greatroom, new hardwood flooring throughout the main level, and the creation of a spacious outdoor deck accessed by French Doors from the living areas. There is so much space for entertaining friends and family! Upgrades to the kitchen include new stainless steel appliances, Quartz Countertops, under-mount single basin sink, and brushed brass cabinet pulls. The remainder of the main level features a more traditional layout as a nod to yesteryear with an entry foyer, sitting room, half-bathroom, and the Primary Bedroom + Bathroom. Additionally, a beautiful and sizable sunroom is located at the rear of the home, perfect for lounging indoors on those sultry Summer afternoons. Tons of storage in the spacious laundry room! Hardwood flooring continues into the bright, Primary Bedroom that features an updated ensuite bathroom with granite countertops and tiled shower. Additional bedrooms are located on the second level and are connected by a Jack and Jill bathroom with new Quartz countertops and bevel sinks. Off the landing is a home office/ craft room/ bonus room. Two large pole barns are perfect for housing farm equipment, chickens, and perhaps even a band performance if that's more your speed. Honey-dos may be accomplished at your discretion in the detached garage with workshop. You don't have to wait until the cows come home - they are already here!
