Description
You do not want to miss this once in a lifetime opportunity to own AND restore one of the oldest and largest historic homes in burgeoning Downtown Winterville! Constructed in the 1880s according to National Historic Register documents and local historians, there is a colorful history to this Colonial style four-over-four home beginning with the first land owner, John Winter, the founder of Winterville. Later it is believed that James W. Hale purchased the lot and constructed the home for his newly wed daughter. With the new Firefly trail completed across the street, this home is primed for a beautiful single family residence, Historic Bed & Breakfast, or Wedding/Event Venue. The bedrooms could be configured in a manner that allots a bathroom to each bedroom. The attic space is enormous and could be finished for more living space. Bring your contractors and your interior designer, as the home will need a full interior restoration. We’ve done the dirty work for you – gutting the majority of what was a whole-house DIY 1980s renovation. Don’t worry, we saved the original windows, mantels, hardwood floors throughout, doors, doorknobs, and more! New gutters, fresh exterior paint, foundation repairs, and a newer roof. Now is the time for someone with a vision to complete the most fun part of a renovation/ restoration. For those unfamiliar with the quaint little city of Winterville, you will find The Marigold Capital of Georgia just 15 minutes to Downtown Athens, The University of Georgia, and all shopping and dining destinations in-between. Each year, Winterville hosts its Marigold Festival and now will be able to host cycling and other athletic events thanks to the Firefly Trail. Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity! Property is being sold “As-Is” and an additional lot is available. Inquire with your Realtor today!
