369 Heard St Elberton, GA 30635

Being offered on the market for just the 4th time in over 100 years, this 1905 home radiates the classical graciousness of Southern architecture and history. It was originally built as a classic four square home with full width front porch to enjoy the breezes of summer and the warmth of the library's fireplace to ward winter's chill. Renovations over the years have provided updates to the kitchen, bathrooms and the addition of walk-in closets to bedrooms, while maintaining most of the original oak floors, windows, doors (2 sets of pocket doors), millwork & hardware as well as the architectural details common to the period. The impressive front entrance into the 9' wide, full length hallway immediately highlights the multiple living areas downstairs. It ends at the screened back porch whose windows provide additional lighting to the back hallway. The formal Living and Dining rooms as well as the Den and all 4 Bedrooms are accented by their original fireplaces and mantels. The charming library has not only its own wood burning fireplace, but also a separate door to the front porch. The chef will be thrilled with the kitchen, starting with ample granite counter-tops and island and ending with the floor to ceiling cabinet storage for everything from appliances to crystal & every spice imaginable. Punched tin cabinet fronts, a hanging pot rack, 2 ovens, gas range, roll out shelving and pine flooring makes for such a delightful and efficient area. Adjoining the kitchen is the Butler's Pantry/Breakfast Room that opens to the Dining Room as well as the Sun Room/Office. You will appreciate the flex space in the cute little sun room/office on the side which has its own private exterior door. Wide stairs and the landing (w/unique stained glass windows) lead to the bedroom areas upstairs. The Master Suite includes a deep walk-in closet and a spacious bath with soaking/jacuzzi tub, separate shower and double vanities. The 2nd Bedroom includes a private half bath. Another oversized bathroom with clawfoot tub & separate shower has a private entrance to the 3rd bedroom and also opens to the hallway. Other desirable features include: large laundry room w/full length closets, high efficiency gas furnace and AC on main floor and 2 separate systems on the 2nd floor (master suite has its own hvac system), recirculating hot water heater so water takes only moments to heat anywhere in house and a large enclosed cedar closet storage in attic. The Downtown Square is just a few blocks away and the streets lined with their historic older homes increase the enjoyment of your walk or ride around town. Enjoy the small town feel of Elberton with its easy living and access to amenities, larger cities, parks and lakes. Come start new traditions to carry on in the comfort and grace of a true Southern Charmer.
