Property Description

A very unique opportunity to own one of the most special and historic properties in Athens! 328 Dearing Street, known as Pink Chimneys, is one of the oldest homes in all of Athens, and likely dates from 1790 - 1820. The home was renovated in 2015, and won the Historic Preservation award the same year. Many of the original elements of the home were restored and preserved while carefully creating a home with today's conveniences. The home has its original heart pine wood floors, as well as the original triple sash windows which were restored to working order with weight pulls. Still present within the home are Adam-style mantels with the sunburst motif that was typical of the Federal period. In 1961, Rev. A. Dawson Teague painted the chimneys of the home pink, which affectionately earned it the nickname Pink Chimneys. The home was totally renovated and restored, including new insulation, HVAC, pluming, electrical, roof, almost all of the original heart pine floors, 4 of the original 6 fireplaces/mantels, and two claw foot tubs were refurbished. Additional heart pine rescued from the old Jittery Joes roaster. An addition was added at the time of renovation, and includes the playroom, screened porch, guest bedroom, laundry room, and guest bathroom. Accolades of this outstanding home include winner of the Athens Heritage Award for Outstanding Rehabilitation, Included on the Athens Walking Tour as a point of historical interest in Athens, and was featured by Southern Living when UGA played Alabama in the National Championship football game. Since purchasing the home, the current owner has completed the following additions: Added a 400+ sq ft guest house, which is currently the top Air BnB in Athens. Full fence has been added around the entire property, Commissioned a full master landscape plan for the property with significant landscaping added including a pea gravel path. (Plan has partially been executed). Main home is 4 bedrooms / 3 bathrooms and has plenty of walk-in storage in crawl space. Large paved driveway and back yard! Old hardwood trees, mature landscaping, over half acre corner lot- on one of the oldest and most charming streets in Athens. Within walking distance to Five Points, Downtown, and UGA's North Campus.
