Description
A rare opportunity to own one of Eatonton's true architectural treasures. Known as the historic Wilkins-Cooper-Jenkins House and dating to circa 1814-1818, this remarkable residence is recognized as the oldest home on Madison Avenue and is featured on Eatonton's Historic Walking Tour. Set on 5.69 private, park-like acres in the heart of historic Eatonton, the home offers approximately 3,676 SF with 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, 4 fireplaces and 4 porches. More than two centuries of history remain beautifully preserved in the antique heart-pine floors, original lath-and-plaster walls, decorative plaster moldings and ceiling medallions, millwork, picture rails, floor-to-ceiling windows, wavy glass and stained glass. An extensive renovation thoughtfully blends modern comfort with historic character. The custom kitchen by Oconee Cabinets features quartz countertops, a 36" Kucht range, Liebherr refrigeration, Bosch dishwasher and Silver Travertine flooring. Beautifully appointed baths incorporate marble, limestone and mother-of-pearl finishes, while antique alabaster, crystal and brass lighting is found throughout. The oldest bedroom retains its original shiplap walls and fireplace and opens through French doors to a private porch. Outside, mature trees, boxwoods, azaleas, flowering shrubs and thousands of daffodils create an extraordinary garden setting. Original terracotta walkways, the historic tower and former kitchen house further preserve the property's story. Remarkably private yet moments from downtown, this is over 200 years of Georgia architecture and craftsmanship.
