Built in 1850, 805 Starrsville Road is one of Newton County's most distinctive properties — a true Victorian farmhouse with the kind of architectural character that simply cannot be replicated. Set back from the road on 1.7 private acres with a sweeping front yard, this home has been a family residence for generations and is now ready for its next chapter. **The Bones Will Take Your Breath Away.**
Step through the front door into a grand central foyer with soaring 14'+ ceilings and original hardwood floors that stretch the length of the home. Pocket doors, original millwork, and a classic staircase with turned balusters speak to the craftsmanship of a bygone era. The three main-floor bedrooms feature dramatic 12-foot ceilings and original 10-foot windows that flood every room with natural light. Two of the main-floor bedrooms share a convenient Jack & Jill bath. Upstairs, a private fourth bedroom with its own full bath offers flexible space for guests, an in-law suite, or a quiet retreat — served by its own AC unit. **A Kitchen Made for Living.**
The oversized eat-in kitchen is a rare find — generous square footage, abundant cabinet storage, a center island, french doors and windows overlooking the backyard. With cosmetic updates, this space has the footprint to rival any high-end farmhouse kitchen. A peaceful view of a neighbor's pond can be enjoyed right from the kitchen window — a lovely backdrop that adds to the serene, country feel of the property. **Room to Grow.**
A full walk-in attic offers genuine potential for additional finished living space. Outside, the property features chicken coops, a garden area, and wide open lawn. **Location That Checks Every Box.**
