Within the I-475/75 beltway lies this 10-acre equestrian estate with a beautifully preserved 1913 historic home. This turn-key residence features a wonderful 3 bedrooms + study, 2.5 baths, and rests on a 4-acre bluff overlooking the pasture. It includes a matching tack house, a three-stall barn, a tree lined dressage arena, and additional storage buildings. Enter the grounds via a cherry blossom tree-lined driveway and come to the home's wide front porch that's perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Upon entering the home, you are greeted by 13' ceilings, original woodwork, original brass chandeliers, a working wood burning fireplace, an intricate brick mantel, and large windows that wash the living room in natural light. The circular floor plan will lead you through the dining room with a marble mantel and built-ins, a remodeled kitchen with a 6-burner gas stove and treetop view of the pasture, the breakfast room with the same stunning view, and into a cozy den. Through the French-door corridor, you will find an office, two secondary bedrooms with a remodeled Jack & Jill bathroom, then the large primary suite which includes a sunroom and the same inspiring view that's perfect for watching the sunset. The current homeowners have prepared the home for you by installing a new roof, new interior & exterior paint, newly sealed crawlspace with a dehumidifier, new perimeter fence, repaved semi-circular driveway, new Butler sand on the dressage arena, and a refurbished 1948 era barn. With a mere 5-minute drive to the shops on Zebulon, 15-minutes to vibrant downtown Macon, and 1 mile to Stratford and FPD; this is a rare opportunity to own such a stately equestrian residence in town. Move in this spring and let the 100+ flowering trees restore your peace and sense of home. Schedule your appointment today.
