Description

This 1936 charmer is rich with character and a true piece of history and charm. Originally a Sears & Roebuck craftsman-style home, constructed and owned by the Georgia Marble Company, this residence blends historic character with modern updates. Set on 1.62 acres with beautiful mature trees, a large front yard, and standout curb appeal, the property offers both presence and privacy from the moment you arrive. From the moment you step inside, the story begins with original shiplap walls, gorgeous hardwood floors, and a warmth that carries through every room. Built-in shelving is tucked thoughtfully throughout the home, blending beauty with functionality, while board and batten accents, and coffered ceilings add layers of timeless architectural detail. The living spaces invite you to slow down, whether it's gathering around the fireplace or enjoying family dinners or get-togethers in the beautiful dining room. The kitchen is both practical and inviting, offering abundant counter space, stained cabinetry with glass-front details, and a generously sized walk-in pantry that makes everyday living feel effortless. The primary suite offers a peaceful retreat, complete with private access to the deck, perfect for early mornings or winding down at the end of the day. The updated en-suite bath blends timeless charm with modern convenience, featuring dual vanities, a separate tub and shower, and a stunning clawfoot tub that anchors the space with character. Outdoor living is just as compelling, with a large covered front porch that feels like a step back in time and a side porch that offers even more space to relax or entertain. Shutters add to the home's curb appeal, while a metal roof and whole-house generator provide peace of mind for years to come. An unfinished basement offers endless potential, whether you envision additional living space, a workshop, or simply extra storage. Located minutes from the historic community of Tate, the Marble Capital of Georgia and minutes from the town of Jasper referred to as the "First Mountain City," this home places you within two communities known for their mountain views, small-town charm, historic details, local wineries and easy access to outdoor adventures. This is more than just a home, it's a piece of history, beautifully carried forward into modern living.
