What's around 174 S Main St

About this property

Originally the old Methodist parsonage, this rambling 19th-century house is an important part of Winterville history, featured in Winterville, Georgia: A Classic Railroad Town. The house has a unique combination of character and versatility. Heart pine floors, 12' ceilings, fireplaces in each room, a spacious yard with oak and pecan trees, and the house's rich history make this the quintessential historic home. Yet it is also unusually versatile for a house of its age and location, with options for single family or dual family occupancy. The 2,219 square feet contain 3 bedrooms, 2 living rooms, 2 bathrooms, a screened-in porch and a large wrap-around porch. The current layout is single family, but the house is built and metered to support 2 wings with separate entrances, baths, kitchens, and gas/electric utilities. This arrangement, grandfathered in from the 1970s, is unusual for a single family-zoned historic district. It makes the house much more affordable for a young couple or single buyer, who can live in one part of the house and rent the other wing as a 1 bedroom or studio apartment. It also makes the house a good fit for those wishing to have a separate space for an in-law suite, home business, art studio/gallery, or home for a live-in caregiver. The house is full of character and warmth. Floors throughout are hardwood and heart pine. The ceilings soar at 12 feet. Four of the original fireplaces were coal burning and add character to each room. Two fireplaces were wood-burning, and the east living room contains a working, period wood-burning stove. All six fireplaces have lovely, original hearths and mantles. The expansive front yard, surrounded by a white picket fence custom built in 2012, gives privacy to the front lawn despite the central location. A new metal roof was installed in November 2015 by an artisan roofer specializing in old houses. The exterior was repainted in early 2015. The recently rebuilt screened porch looks out onto a shady backyard filled with 100-year-old oaks, pecan and other assorted native and edible trees and shrubs. Across the street you'll find outdoor concerts, the annual Marigold and Christmas festivals, a library, town park, and community garden. Historic Winterville offers the benefits of Athens' Boulevard district at a fraction of the cost. With a spacious, 0.9 acre lot and proximity to Athens, this jewel of a house provides a perfect combination of privacy and convenience, affordability and historic character.
