Welcome to Fox Rest Cottage, an exceptional brick home where timeless character meets thoughtful design and modern comfort. Located directly across from the historic Emory & Henry University campus, this distinctive property is set among mature landscaping and beautifully maintained grounds, creating a private and inviting setting in the heart of Emory. From the moment you arrive, the craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident. A beautifully designed interior features hardwood floors, handcrafted fireplaces, custom doors and millwork, built-in bookcases, and carefully crafted window casings. The home was extensively renovated in 2005, with a library, laundry, and dining room addition completed in 2011, blending seamlessly with the original character of the property. The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring a Bosch range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and generous custom finishes. Two bedrooms and two full bathrooms are located on the main level, while the upper level offers a private bedroom suite with its own ensuite bath. Modern improvements complement the home's classic appeal, including a whole-house generator, tankless water heater, and furnace installed in 2025. The outdoor spaces are equally impressive, with manicured grounds, custom exterior details, a detached garage, spacious rear patio, and a charming Garden Structure that provides an ideal spot to unwind, entertain guests, or enjoy the surrounding landscape. Fox Rest Cottage is a truly special property with a character all its own, offering distinctive architecture, exceptional craftsmanship, beautifully designed spaces, and a setting just steps from the historic Emory & Henry campus. You had me at hello begins upon entering!
