About this home
Welcome to 1131 Lee Circle, a rare opportunity to own an authentic log cabin retreat in Watkinsville, where timeless craftsmanship meets the quiet beauty of Oconee County living. Tucked into a private, peaceful setting, this remarkable home offers the feeling of a true mountain escape-yet remains conveniently located to everything the greater Athens area has to offer. From the moment you arrive, the warmth and character of this masterfully crafted log home are undeniable, with pine logs, rough-sawn cedar trim, and traditional chinking creating an authentic, enduring aesthetic. Inside, the home was thoughtfully designed for gathering and entertaining. The expansive main living area showcases soaring 18-foot ceilings and an oversized family room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace-creating a dramatic yet inviting space that has been the backdrop for countless memorable gatherings over the years. Rich heart pine floors-reclaimed from a historic North Carolina sewing factory-add depth, history, and unmatched character throughout. The kitchen is equally impressive, blending functionality with classic charm. A large open layout features an oversized eat-in island with a vegetable prep sink, separate ice maker, double ovens, warming drawer, and abundant space for hosting with ease. The layout offers both comfort and flexibility across multiple levels. Upstairs, you'll find two spacious en-suite bedrooms, each with its own private bath-ideal for guests or family. The finished basement expands the living space even further with a large family or flex room, two additional bedrooms and a full bath with an oversized shower, a cozy wood-burning stove, and a generously sized walk-in storage room-providing incredible versatility for everyday living or extended stays. Outdoor living is where this property truly shines. With over 1,800 square feet of wraparound and covered porches spanning all four sides-including a stunning 10x45 screened porch-you'll find endless opportunities to relax and unwind. Whether enjoying your morning coffee or winding down in the evening, the gentle sounds of nearby McNutt Creek and surrounding nature create a setting that feels worlds away. The main-level primary suite offers a peaceful retreat, complete with a spa-like bath featuring a jetted tub. Additional features include a central vacuum system, water purification system, alarm system, and a brand-new roof-providing both comfort and peace of mind. An oversized two-car garage offers ample space not only for parking but also for a workshop or hobby area-perfect for the hands-on enthusiast or additional storage needs. This is more than just a home-it's a lifestyle. A place where privacy, craftsmanship, and natural beauty come together in a way that is increasingly rare to find....
