About This Home
As of September 2013This nineteenth century classic is located in the heart of beautiful Fivepoints in the Milledge Avenue Historic District and features huge rooms, heart of pine floors and high ceilings. From the wide front porch you enter the elegant foyer with a formal living room on one side and the library/parlor on the other. There are transom doors, arched built-in bookcases and fireplaces. Straight ahead from the foyer is a massive dining room also with a fireplace and heart of pine floors but also featuring a bay window and room for side pieces. The master bedroom is downstairs with a private clawfoot tub bathroom and great views of the backyard. The kitchen is on a grand scale with lots of space for food preparation, dining, and relaxing. At the center of the home is a central hall with a grand open staircase to the upstairs where there are six bedrooms off a wide central hall all with high ceilings and heart of pine floors. Two of the upstairs bedrooms feature private bathrooms plus there is a hall bathroom. The home is set back from the street and there is a gracious back yard with a patio area, a large grass recreation area, and a nice brick garage/storage area in the backyard along with plenty of parking. There is even a cellar. It is close to everything Athens and even won the award for Outstanding Stewardship from the Athens-Clarke Heritage Foundation for 2010. It is zoned Commercial Office but has been loved as a private residence for the last 125 years.
