There's something special about a home with a front porch that practically begs for a rocking chair and a cup of coffee. At 983 New Street, that Southern charm is paired with modern finishes, an open floor plan, and a convenient location in Macon's Beall's Hill neighborhood. Built in 2012, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers approximately 1,472 square feet of inviting living space. Hardwood floors flow through the living room, dining area, and kitchen, where an oversized granite island takes center stage. Gray cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting, and plenty of natural light create a welcoming space for cooking and gathering. The refrigerator, dishwasher, and induction range were replaced in 2023, and the range hood vents to the exterior. Two bedrooms and a full bathroom are located on the main level, while the private primary suite occupies the upper level. This spacious retreat includes a separate sitting area, an ensuite bathroom with a double vanity, and a beautifully tiled walk-in shower. The adjoining sitting area offers flexibility for a home office, reading nook, or additional living space. Luxury vinyl flooring extends through the bedrooms, with carpeting limited to the staircase. Outside, enjoy the covered front porch, fenced backyard, and off-street parking for two cars. Two 4-by-7-foot storage sheds remain with the property, providing convenient space for tools and outdoor essentials. Additional features include steel stud construction with 6-inch walls, added attic insulation, a solar-powered attic ventilator, and spray foam insulation in the crawl space. With Mercer University, Atrium Health Navicent, and downtown Macon nearby, this home brings together character, comfort, and convenience.
