Description

Some homes simply have a story to tell, and this one has been more than a century in the making. Built in 1924, this stately all-brick home sits on approximately 5 acres and offers approximately 3,936 square feet filled with the kind of character and craftsmanship that is hard to find today. A wide covered front porch welcomes you in, setting the tone for a home made for long afternoons, rocking chairs and generations of memories. Inside, soaring ceilings, six fireplaces, glass French doors, oversized windows and generously sized rooms are reminders of another era. Hardwood flooring can be found throughout portions of the home, with additional hardwoods believed to remain beneath some of the existing carpet. The main level offers a spacious living room, den, formal dining room, office, kitchen and primary bedroom. The primary features a wood-burning fireplace and a cedar closet. Upstairs, additional bedrooms, multiple closets, a walk-in attic and a large loft area provide plenty of room to spread out. A large laundry room and screened porches add even more space to this already substantial home. Outside, mature magnolias and azaleas surround the property, while a circular drive, multiple barns and a smokehouse add to its unmistakable Southern character. With approximately 5 acres, there’s room here to enjoy the property just as much as the home itself. After more than a century, the character of this home is still found around every corner. From its grand rooms and original details to the porches, grounds and outbuildings beyond, the foundation of something truly special is already here. The next chapter simply belongs to someone ready to make it their own. Come walk through more than 100 years of character and imagine what the next chapter could look like.
