This Southern Antebellum home is the perfect venue for your gathering, whether large or small. Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation Award Winner "Excellence in Restoration" After being saved from destruction, this exceptional 1846 home was moved one mile to a central location in downtown Newnan. It is within two blocks of the four major downtown churches.
It has been restored to a level that only an experienced restorer and lover of old homes could accomplish. It is filled with a collection of antiques that has taken years to assemble. The house and garden can be rented for weddings, receptions, parties and meetings. The three story home features a 10x34 foot hallway flanked by four large rooms each with a fireplace equipped with gas logs. Four central heating and air conditioning systems assure comfort no matter what the weather. Across the back of the house is a large gathering room with a covered porch extending the length of the rear of the house. The main floor contains a bussing kitchen and two beautiful baths. The upper floor contains a large bedroom with bath and a separate sitting room for the bride's use. The ground floor, accessed from the rear as well as an interior stair, contains a large kitchen, bath, and sitting room.
