This stunningly beautiful home was originally built in Devils Half Acre in 1840. In 1864, it was moved by ox cart 17 miles to Monticello which is now on the National Register of Historic Places. Amazingly, this restored and renovated home sits on roughly 40 acres of land within less than an hour from Atlanta.
If you love horses and the thrill of riding, then the pastures, riding rings, and pecan groves will fill your days. Your horses will enjoy the luxuries of a gorgeous custom-designed six-stall show barn located at the rear of the property.
A wide brick pathway leads to an expansive traditional style wrap around front porch set deep enough to relish fine outdoor living throughout the seasons.
Inside the home, you will discover historical amenities such as wide planked wood floors and architectural detailing as well as modern-day conveniences.
The massive living room is immediately adjacent to the dining room. However, if you’re seeking more privacy simply slide out the pocket doors to divide rooms. The living room is accented by a beautiful fireplace as well as plenty of windows with plantation shutters.
Living Room
The enormous dining room is large enough for parties of twelve and has ample room to properly display your antique sideboards.
The modern style keeping room with coffered ceiling is anchored by a fireplace as well as built-in bookshelves. The room is suffused with light from the wall of windows as well as the large door with transoms.
The distressed cabinetry the kitchen gives an old world feel to a sleek new modern kitchen. Keep up with family and friends over a slice of pie in the adjoining breakfast area.
