Hunting Hill Farm is a captivating 4+ acre, 2 home property that perfectly marries historic charm with modern conveniences. The main house, a stunning two-story structure built in the late 1800s, boasts four bedrooms and three and a half baths. In the morning, walk out onto one of your expansive wrap-around porches to enjoy coffee, the beautiful views, and to look out on your horses in the paddock or one of the two irrigated pastures surrounded by attractive and functional four board fencing. Your home has been lovingly and carefully renovated and features an updated Kitchen, new appliances and granite countertops, updated Bathrooms, Laundry Room, and all of the modern amenities, while still preserving its classic look and feel. As you enter, the huge 12-foot coffered ceilings and wide wood-framed doorways provide a sense of grandeur. The beautifully finished wood floors, the wide, crown molding, the original doors and fixtures, even the ceilings themselves, reflect the incredible quality construction of a bygone era. There is a fireplace in the Master Bedroom as well as the large Master Bath, which also features a soaking tub and steam shower. Double French Doors lead from the Bath onto the wraparound side Porch. There is an additional Bedroom and Bathroom that opens onto the Hall, where a Staircase leads up to a Foyer/Landing. Upstairs, two Bedrooms and a half Bath also open onto the Landing. You will feel secure, not only in the quality of your turn of the century home, but from the lifetime warranties on its reinforced foundation and energy-efficient, and noise-reducing, double-paned windows. Behind the main house is a separate two-stall barn with lockable equipment bays and workshop. The adjacent paddocks provide ample space for horses or other livestock. The barn features a Ralph Lauren style Lounge (Tack Room), Feed Room, and Hayloft. There is ample room inside the barn (but outside the stall doors) to care for your horses, even in the worst weather. Across from the main house, with separate access and driveway, is a charming two-bedroom, one bath "Barndominium," great for guests, friends, relatives, or as an income producing asset. Built for local schoolteachers, around the same time as Main House, the second home includes the same quality wood construction and updated Kitchen and Bathroom and refinished wood floors found in the Main House. There are also two large adjoining horse stalls and a pasture. Best of all, this property is located in Carlton, a historic and friendly small town, less than thirty minutes from Athens, home to a large and welcoming equestrian community, only a half mile from 12 miles of equestrian trails at Watson Mill State Park, half an hour from most Shakerag fixtures, 1 hour from Belle Meade Hunt, and saddle clubs, close to world class arena and show facilities, close to the UGA Vet School, and within the desirable Madison County School System. Hunting Hill Farm is an ideal retreat for those seeking a blend of pastoral beauty and refined living. You must see it in person to understand just what a treasure it is. Note: the property for sale is composed of three lots located at 127 North Street, 5391 Highway 72 E, and 5435 Highway 72 E. An additional adjacent cottage will be listed for sale in early 2025.
