Own a crown jewel of Georgia's Colonial History - The Magnificent Winfrey-Davies-Hawkins House. Seclusion and magic await only 12 minutes from downtown Athens. This 12-acre stunning estate has not only seen the birth and growth of generations, it has been a protagonist in the stories of Native American tribes, cities, and counties that formed on and around it. Originally part of the estate of Benjamin Baldwin, the property is marked by the historic boundary of the “Treaty Tree,” which previously marked the northwestern most point of The Colony of Georgia (see documents attached). From the moment you drive onto the land, you will be enamored by never-ending green pastures. Impeccably balanced open fields and woodland are the perfect setting for this spectacular antebellum home built in 1828. This distinguished six-bedroom home (with two bedrooms on the main floor) has been nicely preserved, with adjacent buildings and other improvements constructed throughout the decades. It now boast an enormous foyer, a “parlor chamber", formal living and dining rooms. Throughout the home you can experience the authentic Neo-Classical architectural style characteristic of the 19th Century. Gorgeous original crown molding, beaded ceilings, intricate trims and hardwoods tastefully grace all areas of the home. A screened-in living room porch, a huge kitchen and eight fireplaces within its two stories. Additional acreage available for sale. Buyer can add more acreage to the purchase including a breathtaking two-acre lake.
