1501 S Madison St, Athens, AL 35611

Situated on almost 2 private acres in the heart of Athens, this circa 1890 Southern Colonial beauty offers history without the restrictions of an historic designation which limits remodeling options. Great for entertaining in the huge living and formal dining room separated by pocket doors, or gather in the L-shaped sun/breakfast area surrounding the kitchen. Five fireplaces are placed throughout the home; four still function and are equipped with gas logs. In spring, the enormous wisteria draped around the walnut tree on the south lawn produces a stunning lilac carpet. Ceiling height is approximately 11' throughout most of the house. 4-car storage: 3-car carport and 1-car garage.
