Welcome to this beautiful home only a half block from Tattnall Square Park and 2.5 blocks from Mercer University. Built in 1896, the home was renovated by Historic Macon Foundation. Lovingly maintained with additional upgrades including a new roof in 2023, two new HVAC units in 2021, and new exterior paint in 2019. Downstairs features a gracious foyer adorned with built-in bookcases, living room, den, classic dining room, kitchen with large island, mudroom, interior atrium and a perfect in-law suite with bath. Upstairs has 3 large bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, one ensuite and one with a clawfoot tub. A full-sized walk-up attic provides extensive storage. The large fenced yard has ample room for gardening and parking a car. With high ceilings, original wood floors, easy flow between the downstairs rooms, and a back deck with room for grilling and dining, this welcoming home invites entertaining and also provides many spaces for peace and relaxation. Meanwhile the sunsets are not to be missed from the elevated, wrap-around front porch. Close to downtown and within easy walking distance to two schools (Alexander II Elementary and Mount de Sales Academy), pickleball courts, and the Fickling concert hall, this lovely home offers ready access to the best of Macon.
