About This Home

Built for a traveling auditor with the Frisco Railroad, the historic James J. Pickens House blends timeless charm with thoughtful updates. A transom with carved millwork crowns the front door, while tall, triple-hung windows, a rare feature in Central Gardens, flood the home with natural light. Inside, you'll find gorgeous hdwd flooring, a spacious living room w/ a fireplace and hand-carved mantle, plus 3 bedrooms and an office (or 4th bedroom). The kitchen overlooks the beautifully landscaped grounds that you can also enjoy from the large screened in back patio. The upcoming Fall, Crisp mornings are coming soon - Move right on in & enjoy them from the inviting front porch or screened in patio! The upstairs bathroom was completely renovated in 2025 as well as new wooden stained fence. Other architectural details include: Beautiful brick apron & pavers enhance the front porch, gorgeous stained glass, beams in the kitchen, & more! This is a must-see gem!!
