Overview

Welcome to 278 Moss Side Drive — a stately and timeless residence in the heart of Athens, GA. Encompassing over 6,100 square feet, this grand home offers exceptional scale, classic architecture, and the opportunity to tailor it to your personal vision.

A circular drive, rocking chair front porch, and commanding columns create an unforgettable first impression. Inside, a dramatic foyer and sweeping staircase are flanked by generous formal living and dining rooms, designed for elegant entertaining. The dining room showcases beautiful built-ins, while the spacious eat-in kitchen features a center island, abundant natural light, and premium appliances including SubZero, Thermador, and double ovens. Expansive pantry space, additional laundry/storage, and a rear staircase enhance functionality.

The main level also offers a warm den with fireplace and bar, screened porch access, and a private study or guest suite with full bath.

Upstairs, the owner’s suite is a private retreat complete with a separate study and dual baths. Oversized secondary bedrooms offer large walk-in closets, including a charming hidden bunk room. A finished terrace level provides additional living space with fireplace, billiards room, bedroom, and full bath — ideal for guests or recreation.

Outdoor living is equally impressive with a beautifully manicured, terraced backyard, expansive screened porch, multiple decks, and a covered patio below — creating layered spaces for relaxation and entertaining.

Ideally located near downtown Athens, Prince Avenue, Loop 10, and Athens Country Club, this distinguished property offers privacy, convenience, and enduring appeal.
