The house sits on over an acre lot (acreage to be verified by buyer) with lush, mature vegetation designed by a well known local landscape firm. The privacy of the house is provided by an empty lot on the south side of house (owned by Independent Methodist Church), vacant adjacent lot to the north that is included as part of house sale, as well as a deep backyard, bordered by a custom designed brick/wood fence. The square footage of the house (excluding exterior enclosed areas and patios/carport) is approximately 3200 (to be verified by buyer). The house was constructed in late 50s and extensively renovated in 1980s to include larger triple pane Pella windows, expanded 200+ feet (square footage to be verified by buyer) fully glassed-in breakfast room with vaulted ceiling and sitting area. The house is mid-century modern split level with 3bd/2ba upstairs, one half bath on main level and 3/4 bath/utility room + large bonus room downstairs. The main level also includes a front door entrance hall, kitchen and breakfast room, as well as a living and dining room and two offices (one with vaulted ceilings). The downstairs also includes a den/tv room. The walls in den/tv room are “pecky” Cyprus paneling. There are three fireplaces (den, living room and office). Two of the fireplaces are wood burning and the third is gas logs (newly installed in 2025). The house was renovated extensively in the 1980s, by an architect, based in Birmingham, Alabaman, who designed the BankFirst branch located in downtown Macon. The upstairs master bedroom bath was renovated most recently. The property boasts two storage rooms, one that is attached to the main house, as well as one that is in the backyard (separate from the house with a design that mirrors the design of the main house). The house was designed to be energy efficient by installing insulation that was attached to the exterior walls of the house prior to installation of the exterior siding. A new beveled glass front door was recently installed on the house to replace a custom designed, more elaborate beveled glass door. Both doors with be included in house sale. A two car carport is attached to the south side of house, with a concrete driveway and additional parking area that will accommodate several vehicles. Sale of the house includes kitchen appliances, for which the refrigerator is less than 2 years old. The flooring in the entrance hall, kitchen and breakfast room is a beautiful Mexican tile for which each tile was hand placed during installation. The rest of flooring in house is carpet, except for utility room, which has linoleum flooring and the bathrooms, which have tile flooring. Several of the rooms have custom-designed draperies, including upstairs bedrooms, living room, dining room, offices, bonus room and utility room. Blinds are installed in the window without draperies. There are four exterior doors on the house, one in the front and three in the back. The outdoor walkways and patios are old style brick that match the exterior brick on the house. There is a brick walkway on the front of the house that leads to the front door, as well as a brick walkway in the backyard that leads from the patio of the house to a sitting area porch on the backyard fencing on the west perimeter of the lot. An extensive digitally controlled irrigation system was recently installed that covers most, if not all, of the outdoor landscaping.
