57 Clark St, Newnan, GA 30263

True walking distance from downtown, this folk Victorian cottage was featured in the 2022 Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation Fall Ramble. With origins in the 1800's, this rare College-Temple find has been lovingly preserved and thoughtfully updated with period-appropriate appointments. The pictures tell the story. The homeowner's commitment to quality materials and historic precedent is clear at every turn - cedar shingles, trunk storage with ball and stick vented doors, antique doors & doorknobs, decorative mantles, new plaster and several reworked 10.5' ceilings are just a few examples. The modern additions give a nod to contemporary farmhouse style while integrating seamlessly with the home's timeless elegance. The cellar, carport and large parking pad are big bonuses for utility, but here the outdoors is all about the plants. Crepe myrtles, hydrangeas, Japanese maples, Shasta daisies and flowering almond (to name just a few) mark the work of an expert gardener, attracting hummingbirds, butterflies and feathered tenants: a nestbox of bluebirds who are expecting. Updated systems include AC, hot water heater, others. The roof is less than ten years old. The buyer will receive a file of history on the house.
