    Historic Charm. Endless Possibilities. Unmatched Location. Welcome to 815 S. Center Street, one of Thomaston's most distinctive properties, where history, character, and opportunity come together on 2.29 acres in the heart of Upson County. Known locally as "Maggie's Orchard" and once home to the renowned Eagles Nest Nursery, this extraordinary estate was owned by nationally recognized landscape architect, artist, and master gardener Tommy Mixon, whose work was featured on PBS's Victory Garden. The grounds still hold the remnants of tropical gardens, rare plantings, hidden garden spaces, and the vision of a truly remarkable property waiting to be brought back to life. The main residence is a charming 1924 farmhouse featuring 3 spacious bedrooms, 1 full bath, original hardwood floors, soaring 12-14 foot ceilings, multiple original fireplaces with beautiful mantels, a formal living room, separate den, spacious farmhouse kitchen, rocking chair front porch, and timeless architectural details throughout. Connected by a covered breezeway is a private handicap-accessible guest suite complete with its own HVAC system, separate water heater, full bath, laundry area, and large walk-in closet. Add a kitchenette to create an income-producing apartment, in-law suite, guest quarters, or home office. Outside, the possibilities continue with a large attached greenhouse/aviary, a massive two-story historic barn, multiple outbuildings, vintage chicken coops, three deep wells, and plenty of room to expand your vision. What truly sets this property apart is its prime location. Situated directly beside the Thomaston-Upson County Government Administration Complex with approximately 300 feet of road frontage on S. Center Street, this highly visible property offers exceptional potential for residential living, business use, or future redevelopment, subject to local zoning and approvals.
