Grand yet inviting, historic in feel yet built for today, The Pear Tree Estate is one of Auburn’s most remarkable offerings—an estate of timeless character and present-day comfort. Designed to echo the grace of early-1900s architecture, every detail tells a story, from reclaimed heart-pine floors to antique doors. Here, privacy and beauty converge on 15.7 private acres, offering a rare sanctuary within Auburn city limits. Inside, every room feels intentional and enduring. A library with custom built-ins and a gas fireplace, a dining room illuminated by a Schonbek chandelier, and a kitchen centered around a cherry-wood island with professional-grade appliances create spaces that invite both gathering and retreat. The main-level primary suite features striking windows with tranquil views and a custom-built closet designed for order and elegance. Heated floors and an antique clawfoot tub add warmth and charm in equal measure. Four brick-paver porches—including a sweeping upper balcony overlooking the grounds—capture every hour of the day, from first light to golden sunset. Beyond the fenced backyard, magnolias, azaleas, and fruit trees create a private landscape of color and stillness. Every window frames a view of trees, light, and serenity—proof that privacy can exist just minutes from town. Located in North Auburn, only 15 minutes from Auburn University and 30 minutes from the shores of Lake Martin, The Pear Tree Estate offers the peace of a countryside retreat with the convenience of city life—a home where time slows, memories are made, and every detail tells a story.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
