Step back in time and experience the charm of a simpler way of life at this special one-level home, lovingly owned by the same family for 40 years. Built in 1972 and situated on a beautiful 1-acre lot at the end of a quiet dead-end street, this property offers a peaceful setting with only a few neighbors and a sense of privacy that is increasingly hard to find. The home retains the character and decor of its era, offering a wonderful glimpse into the past while providing the opportunity to make it your own. Outside, the property truly shines. The thoughtfully designed yard feels more like a private botanical garden, with purposeful plantings and an impressive collection of mature landscaping, including Japanese Maples, Crepe Myrtles, Nandina, Holly bushes, Lenten Roses, Gardenias, Camellias, Azaleas, Dogwoods and Magnolias. Whether you are enjoying the beauty of the changing seasons, relaxing in the peaceful surroundings, or imagining the possibilities for the home itself, 135 Old Fort Road offers something truly special. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Athens history on a picturesque acre where established beauty, privacy, and timeless character come together. **Roof and gutters replaced July 2026.
