About This Home
The Grand Dame of Historic Downtown Brunswick — Stately Georgian with Storied Elegance |
Built circa 1900, the Barber House is an exquisite example of Georgian architecture, celebrated for its craftsmanship, stately presence, and rich history. From its sweeping verandas and intricate wainscoting to the heart pine floors and burled wood staircase, every detail speaks to the enduring elegance of a bygone era. The grand foyer is anchored by a breathtaking stained-glass window—an extraordinary centerpiece that captures the light and attention of all who enter.
This three-story residence offers more than 5,600 square feet of gracious living space, seamlessly blending preserved historic elements with thoughtful modern upgrades. The main level is designed for gathering and entertaining, with a flowing layout that connects the formal dining room, library, living room, sun porch, and a beautifully renovated kitchen. Period pocket doors provide flexible separation or openness as desired. A first-floor primary suite could be created with ease.
Upstairs, the second floor features three generously sized bedrooms and two full baths, including a reimagined primary suite with a custom walk-in closet, double vanity, and bespoke step-in shower. The third floor includes two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a spacious bonus room perfect for a home office, studio, or additional sleeping quarters. The two Primary levels are serviced by an elevator.
The property also includes a charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath Carriage House with long-term tenant in place, offering additional income or guest accommodations. Below, the garage provides extra storage and workshop space with access from Ellis Street.
Ideal as a family home, a refined short-term rental, or a stunning event venue, the Barber House is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully preserved piece of Southern heritage just blocks from the heart of downtown. The current owners have invested in significant infrastructure improvements, including updated HVAC systems, a whole-house water filtration and softener system, vapor barrier, irrigation well, and more. A full list of enhancements is available upon request.
Showings require a minimum of 30 minutes to fully appreciate the scale and artistry of this remarkable home.
