Steeped in history and timeless elegance, this extraordinary Victorian Second Empire estate was constructed circa 1882 by Col. Hamilton Yancey and remains one of Rome's most recognizable landmark residences. Situated on approximately one acre, the residence is distinguished by its architecture, mansard roof, impressive scale, and remarkable craftsmanship inside and out. Inside, grand living and entertaining spaces include a formal dining room, parlor, and spacious living room. Original details found throughout the home include intricate millwork and moldings, built-in bookcases and cabinetry, a custom dining room buffet, and an antique wall safe. The expansive kitchen features custom cabinetry, premium appliances, a dramatic 15-foot black marble island, walk-in pantry, and adjoining bar. The flexible floor plan offers five bedrooms, five full bathrooms, and a half bathroom with options for a primary suite on either the main or second level. An unfinished third floor, accessed by its own staircase, offers substantial additional space. A separate Gothic-style guest house includes a living room, kitchen, full bathroom, and bedroom on the main level, with two additional rooms upstairs offering flexibility for additional bedrooms or other uses. A truly rare offering, this iconic residence combines architectural significance, historic character, impressive scale, and an unmistakable presence. Important Information: The property is monitored by 24-hour security. No unauthorized access is permitted. Showings are by appointment only and must be accompanied by the listing agent. All prospective purchasers and their agents must execute required access documents prior to touring. The property is being sold "AS IS".
