Where do we begin? Famed UGA basketball coach Hugh Durham built this remarkable home as his personal estate in 1979. Now offered by only its third owner, this Southern classic has been painstakingly restored and is simply breathtaking. Set on nearly 4 private acres, the property is accessed via a long, winding driveway from Old Jefferson Road, with additional access from Walton Creek Road. With AR zoning and no HOA, horses and stables are permitted. A circular driveway and side-entry two-car garage provide ample parking. Lush, opulent landscaping-fully irrigated by well-fed sprinklers-sets the tone as you enter "'tween the hedges," a nod to the original owner and UGA. A brick walkway leads to the double-balconied facade and welcoming grand foyer. Inside feels straight from the pages
