This historic 1800s homeplace, affectionately known as "Aunt Myrt's" is a unique, quintessential Southern American mill home. The home was originally built in 1898 at the height of commerce in North High Shoals and boasts 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The freshly painted interior 2019 and kitchen remodel completed in 2017, including painted cabinets and custom built charred pine countertops, combines with hardwood floors and front, side, and back wrap around porches that overlook the hilly terrain and give you the feel of being in the 19th century North Georgia mountains while affording you the convenience of modern luxuries. As an added bonus, one bathroom was just updated this year and features subway tile shower surround with Americast bathtub and shiplap walls and tile floor. The detached garage/shop was renovated in 2014. The kitchen cabinet hardware, dining and living room light fixtures are incredibly unique and created by ME Speak Design specifically for this property. The fireplace and hearth have recently been rebuilt with period correct bricks including a special one stamped “handmade". Don't miss this opportunity to enjoy a gentle breeze blowing in from the Apalachee River while rocking on the porch in a tight knit community rich with history! Zoning for the award winning, best in state North Oconee Schools makes "Aunt Myrt's" a true gem...Walk to the river shoals or the park. You don't want to miss this one
