Welcome to 5 Layng Drive, tucked into one of Athens' most sought-after, family-friendly neighbourhoods, where stylish updates, incredible versatility and a backyard made for memory-making come together beautifully! From the moment you step inside, you'll feel the difference. The bright, open-concept kitchen, dining and living areas have been completely refreshed with gorgeous new hardwood flooring, fresh paint throughout, new trim and baseboards, and modern lighting that gives this home a fresh, welcoming and inviting feel. With 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, there's room for everyone-including a peaceful primary suite! A newly created 3-piece ensuite offers your own private retreat, while a beautifully renovated 4-piece main bath and upgraded main-floor laundry with new stainless steel sink, add everyday convenience. Need room for extended family, teenagers or guests? The lower level opens up a whole new world of possibilities! A new kitchenette, family room and additional non-conforming bedroom space offer exciting potential for multi-generational living or an in-law suite. Two new oversized windows flood the space with natural light, while a future bathroom area is already allocated and drywalled with active building permit. There's even abundant storage and a workshop for the DIY enthusiast! Then step outside...and THIS is where summer happens! An expansive back deck overlooks the large, fully fenced backyard-perfect for BBQs, kids, fur babies and evenings spent under the stars roasting marshmallows and sharing campfire stories. Add an attached double garage, loads of parking and a location where you can WALK to schools, groceries, restaurants, recreation, churches, banking and the post office. And the cherry on top? Gorgeous Charleston Lake is only 7 minutes away! Beautifully updated. Wonderfully versatile. Perfectly located. Come see why 5 Layng Drive just might be the home you didn't know you were waiting for!
