About this home
Historic 1930s Farmstead with Guest House in the North Oconee District A rare Oconee County treasure blending true historic character with modern, high-performance upgrades - all just minutes from Watkinsville's beloved schools, parks, restaurants, and shopping. A one-of-kind 2-acre small farm oasis Set behind a private gate and shaded by magnificent mature oaks, this beautifully restored 1930s farmhouse sits on a fully fenced 2-acre mini-farm complete with fruit trees, specimen ornamentals, pecan trees, garden plots, and wide-open green space. The setting feels like a private retreat, yet you're still in the coveted North Oconee High School district. The deep, breezy front porch entertainment area becomes an outdoor living room-perfect for gatherings, morning coffee, or quiet evenings under the trees. This home has been meticulously renovated by the resident architect, honoring its 1930s soul while adding the comfort, efficiency, and craftsmanship expected today. A complete kitchen renovation brings warmth, authenticity, and modern function together, along with 10' clear pine ceilings, spruce wall boards, quartz countertops, extra-large picture window over the sink, and custom banquette seating. The dining room includes repurposed colonial wide-plank pine flooring and an electric cast-iron wood stove with a 1906 Appalachian antique mantle & surround. A brand-new, fully independent guest home expands the property's flexibility with an ADA-compliant layout ideal for multigenerational living, in-law suite or caretaker residence. It is perfect as an Airbnb or income-producing rental with private parking. This is a rare amenity in Oconee County and dramatically increases the property's value and versatility with separate parking areas. The land has been thoughtfully cultivated and fenced for beauty, productivity, and ease of care with 4-rail fencing and gated entry. There is a garden plot ready for planting, raspberries, fruit trees & specimen ornamentals. Mature pecan trees and oaks offer plenty of shade. This is a property designed for outdoor living, gardening, and peaceful enjoyment. Homes like this simply don't come along often. A place where history, craftsmanship, and modern comfort meet. A place that feels like home the moment you arrive....
