After appearing on the Athens Places in Peril list, The Bond House was rescued in January 2024 and has undergone an extraordinary transformation. Sitting on a .62 acre corner lot, this home is a true celebration of its original character with its thoughtfully blended historical charm and modern conveniences. As you approach, the enormous wrap-around front porch invites you to imagine leisurely mornings overlooking the front yard, equipped with an irrigation system ready for your landscaping vision. Inside, 12-foot ceilings and original heart pine floors radiate warmth and elegance, complemented by an abundance of natural light streaming through the large original windows.
