About This Home
Charming 1940s brick cottage in historic Shirley Hills. Beautifully sited on a winding lane, this lovely home fronts a 28-acre wooded preserve. Historic charm, tasteful updates, and exceptionally fine original details characterize the well-proportioned rooms. Original oak hardwood floors and crown and chair molding flow throughout the interior, while high ceilings and large windows provide for exceptional natural light. The large living room features built-in bookcases, a brick fireplace, and access to a sublime sunroom. The updated kitchen offers white shaker-style cabinetry, quartz counters, tile backsplash, and a large butcher block serving bar overlooking the ample dining room. Appliances include stainless steel refrigerator/freezer with icemaker, microwave, beverage cooler, Kitchenaid 5-burner gas range with double ovens, Bosch dishwasher, and oversized stainless farm sink with disposal. The bright primary suite features a large closet and en suite bath with antique vanity and shower with rain-style and handheld shower heads. A wide hall with a second large closet and laundry closet with washer/dryer leads to two ample secondary bedrooms that share a renovated jack n 'jill bath with tub/shower. The deep, fenced backyard offers a gated parking pad and 2-car detached garage with massive concrete storage room and workshop. A pavered pergola and fenced lawn with alley access complete this private sanctuary. Laid out in 1919 in the picturesque suburban style, Shirley Hills is prized for its bucolic feel, fine historic homes, and vibrant community. Minutes from downtown Macon, major hospitals, and Interstates, its winding streets and wooded parks feel worlds away.
