Warning: touring this property may cause a sudden urge to cultivate a chicken habit that could quickly become an addiction. Some people buy a house, some people buy a lifestyle with a very opinionated barn and chicken coop. This 2.63 acre level homestead in Watkinsville delivers two homes, three fenced pastures, an 80x30 barn, and an orchard/garden that treats food like a group project. The renovated 3 bed, 2 bath main house features an open kitchen, oak wood floors, all electric appliances, a separate laundry room, a living room chimney ready for a freestanding stove, newer HVAC, a brand new metal roof, and a freshly poured side porch. Out back, the 1 bed, 1 bath guest house, finished in 2020, offers a metal roof, a screen ready large porch, and its own driveway, septic, and power, perfect for family, guests, a rental, an office, or just hiding. The barn has water and power for storage, shop space, or every project you swear you'll finish. No renovation required: the pastures are fenced and ready for your own chickens, goats, rabbits, or cows (animals not included), and the blueberries, figs, apples, pears, pecans, cherries, muscadines, hazelnuts, and thornless blackberries are already growing. Also important to note is the 600 foot deep well, freeze proof spigots, minutes from Watkinsville, and an easy drive to Athens. Schedule your showing before someone else claims it.

Some properties you tour. This one you experience. Set back on 8.87 private acres in Oconee County, this 2021 four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home (2,964 sq ft) with durable Hardie board siding brings together nearly-new living space, serious outbuildings, and open land - a combination that almost never hits the market this close to Watkinsville. Inside you'll find a main-level primary suite, a second very private suite on the main level (ideal for in-laws, older kids, or guests), and open living areas designed for gathering. The finishes still feel current, and the layout gives you both togetherness and separation. Outside is where the property earns its keep. A 3050 shop with a bathroom (easily convertible to living quarters) sits beside a 1445 shop house, delivering roughly 2,100 square feet of dedicated shop space. There's also a 2640 pole barn and a 2436 garage connected to the house by a breezeway. Whether you're running a business from home, housing equipment and toys, or simply want room to work, the infrastructure is already in place. The land itself is a standout: a large open area dotted with hardwood trees that reads as a blank canvas for a food plot, playing field, riding arena, paddocks, or simply more privacy. Nearly nine acres gives you space without isolation - you're minutes from Watkinsville and zoned for Oconee County's top-rated schools. At this age and condition, there's nothing to do but move in and make it yours. Land, shops, a nearly-new home, and Oconee County schools - a combination that rarely comes together.
