Welcome to 230 N. Georgia Ave, one of the most historic homes in the quaint and lovely city of Winterville! Built circa 1837 as the railroad foreman’s home, this charming home is nestled in one of the absolute best locations in Winterville! The main home is 1833 sq ft, one level, and contains 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, while the detached, conditioned studio is approx. 440 square feet and contains a full bath and loft area. Heart pine and oak floors run throughout the home, and plank wood ceilings and beadboard walls highlight the historic architecture. Both bathrooms have been recently renovated in classic black and white tile, including the owner’s en suite. All 3 bedrooms are spacious, and the living room is large and anchored by a woodburning fireplace. The kitchen features newer appliances and a solid surface countertop, and a separate dining room is located between the kitchen and living room. A sunroom with laundry closet is located in the rear of the home for convenience. Exterior features include original pine siding, metal roof, front porch, brick chimney, plus a huge, covered wood deck and fenced yard that is perfect for enjoying friends and family outside. Older doesn’t mean frail, however--this foreman’s house was built extra stout with the following recent work completed: entire exterior painted in 2023, 10-year old metal roof, newer gutters, 2018 HVAC, 2020 water heater, and the home is on public water AND sewer, so no septic tank! The two-story detached studio is spacious and full of possibilities. It is air-conditioned, has a full bath and staircase up to a loft. It could be a perfect home office, workshop, music/art studio, carriage house and more. Located just steps to the Firefly Trail, library, bookstore, Farm Stop store, Community Gardens and Pittard Park. Winterville combines an artsy, front-porch atmosphere with the convenience of being just 7 miles to downtown Athens and the University of Georgia. A true must-see!
