A True 1836 Georgia Treasure
Oh my goodness, old-house lovers, prepare to get weak in the knees! This is the Susan Russell House, one of the actual original settlements in Dawson County. You are not just buying a house; you are buying a literal piece of Southern history. The second you drive up and see the massive, ancient oak trees guarding the property, you will feel like you stepped right into a history book. It has been lovingly updated so you do not have to live like a pioneer, but all the soul is perfectly intact.
Heart Pine and Fireplaces Galore
The absolute best part of the interior has to be the incredible historic details. We are talking original heart pine floors, real shiplap walls, and beautiful tongue-and-groove ceilings. If you love staying cozy, you are in luck because this home boasts five fireplaces! The master suite on the main floor even has a fireplace right in the bathroom next to the soaking tub. Imagine bubble baths by firelight! There is also a huge dining room that seats over 12 people and a sun-soaked breezeway leading to a gorgeous rustic kitchen.
Space for the Whole Crew (and Horses!)
This estate is massive and includes an upper-level apartment that is perfect for in-laws or long-term guests who want their own space. Outside, you get 11 glorious acres of rolling pastureland. It features a classic, giant Southern porch with a screened-in section for bug-free sweet tea sipping. There is a fenced pasture for animals, garden spots, and the footing is already done for a horse-riding arena.
Bonus Hidden Rooms
If nearly 4,300 square feet of finished space isn’t enough, there is a giant unfinished area already framed out. It is ready for you to add three more bedrooms and two more bathrooms, and it already has its own stone fireplace and direct garden access. This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to own a true historic paradise!
