This remarkable property includes a three story fully restored 1840’s Greek Revival home and an immaculate 1930’s style brick guest cottage on a working and producing urban farm in Sparta Georgia. Located just 20 minutes from Lake Oconee, this home is one of Georgia’s more remarkable -and thorough- historic restorations along with an established history of small farm production for Atlanta and Athens area Farmers markets. In addition to the main home and guest cottage, there is a barn with additional living quarters, period appropriate storage buildings, agricultural hoop houses and two additional bathrooms on the property. The home and grounds were restored by an Atlanta legend in the design and garden business, and it shows incredible detail at every step. This farm produces hundreds of pounds of organic vegetables and flowers which are marketed to Farmers markets in Atlanta and Athens. The main home still features its original hardwood floors, incredible walnut doors, and the original stair balusters. The renovation included all new electric, heating and air, and extensive insulation and exterior work. Exterior spaces include four separate porches - the main porches on the front and back of the home and matching porches on the lower level that have direct garden access. The grounds feature gardens by a well-known Georgia garden designer, and, and this property has been published in Southern Living and multiple other magazines, shows, and blogs.
