Home Is More Than a House! Some houses are built with lumber and brick. Others are built with memories. This one is both. Long before this house stood here, this property was known as "the old home place." Back in the 1940s, approximately 75 acres were purchased-the story goes the entire farm was paid for with the first year's squash crop. That simple beginning became the foundation for generations of memories. In 1976, the old house was torn down and a new home was built. In 1998, the current owners began renovating the home inside and out-not just improving a house, but creating a home filled with years of memories, birthday parties, soccer practices, sleepovers, cookouts, and countless evenings watching Georgia sunsets from the porch. Set on three beautiful acres beneath towering oaks, the west-facing front yard offers spectacular sunsets, while the backyard and screened porch enjoy soft morning light. Mature landscaping creates a peaceful, private setting rarely found today. A pavilion and carport provide inviting spaces for entertaining and relaxing. Inside you'll find: * Three finished levels * Five bedrooms, 3.5 baths * A warm French Country kitchen-the heart of the home * A screened rear porch for peaceful mornings and evenings * A finished basement ideal for a family room, recreation space, or guest suite. Our home is located in Henry County's top-rated , #1 overall, high school and middle school district, zoned for Union Grove High School and Union Grove Middle School. Optional adjoining 3-acre tract available separately, featuring an impressive 40' x 84' finished barn/workshop with rough-sawn lumber interior, 16-foot walls, large roll-up doors, electricity, and water. The building has hosted weddings, a senior prom, reunions, and now serves as an exceptional workshop-ideal for hobbies, projects, storage, or a home-based business. We hope the next owners will create their own traditions and memories here. Come experience this special property for yourself-the next chapter is waiting to be written.
