About 605 Arlington Place
Must see! 150 years of Macon history, restored and ready for its next owner. A true 1870 Victorian in the heart of Macon's InTown historic neighborhood, lovingly restored and genuinely move-in ready. From the moment you step into the grand foyer with its inlaid wood and marble, you can tell this home has been cared for the right way. Every bit of the recent work was approved through the historic review process, so the character that makes this house special is protected. The original hardwood floors run through large, light-filled rooms with ceilings over ten feet. Three decorative fireplaces, exquisite woodwork throughout, a huge dining room that seats twelve plus, a big living room, and a separate den give you room to spread out and entertain. The renovated kitchen offers solid surface counters, a breakfast room, and an open view to the living space. The primary suite is on the main level, and an upstairs bedroom with its own full bath could easily serve as a second primary. Upstairs you'll also find a walk-out balcony with new French doors, perfect for morning coffee. The major updates are already done. Updated plumbing and electrical, windows all replaced or refurbished, roof just three years old, tankless water heater, smart thermostat, fresh paint inside and out in calm neutral tones, and recently redone siding. Out back there's a private, fully fenced yard with a drive-through gate, off-street parking, irrigation, storage, and a basement workshop. All of this sits in one of Macon's most sought-after historic areas, with sidewalk-lined streets, parks, and a dog park nearby, minutes from Mercer University, Tatnall Square Park, and everything downtown has to offer. Optional membership in the InTown Macon Neighborhood Association connects you to one of the most active historic neighborhoods in the state. On the market just in time to get settled before school starts this fall. A wonderful family home or smart investment, and buyers should ask about the historic tax incentives now available for homes in this district.
