Property Description
Greek Revival. Craftsman soul. Modern functionality. Stately not stiffness. Every inch whispers stories of dinner parties past, quiet mornings, coffee & novel, summer evenings where laughter echoes. A masterclass in lived-in loveliness. A front porch worthy of sweet tea & conversation, radiating elegance & grounded hospitality. Inside, every detail from fireplace to French doors, like a scene from a jazz-age novel, feels intentional, artistic, & entirely unique. The great room spans the full width of the home, where four sets of French doors connect to the hall, dining room, & grand porch. An entertainer's fantasy, reader's sanctuary, & front-row seat to neighborhood life all in one. Two comfortable main-floor bedrooms share an updated, tiled bathroom with walk-in shower. A formal dining room flows into a chef's kitchen via butler's pantry. The kitchen stuns: exposed brick, period-inspired hardware, contemporary lines, central island, double doors open to the backyard. A mudroom+laundry zone waits at rear entrance, perfect for corralling the day's chaos with style. Upstairs, a space ideal for creative layouts, quiet retreats, long-term hosting or inter-generational living. You'll find a charming kitchenette, bathroom w/ original clawfoot tub, & two bedrooms at the front. One bedroom walks out to private deck w/ stairwell: income potential, home office hideaway, or what we lovingly call a Mike Seaver Suite. Outside? That's where things go from charming to HEY THAT'S AN ACTUAL BARN. Massive yard, a rarity in Haynie's Corner, shaded by ancient pecan, black walnut, & bald cypress trees. It's a private park, ready for garden parties, hammock naps, & pet frolics. We're not quite sure we mentioned the barn? That's right. An honest-to-goodness, whole a—- barn, right here in the city. Think: studio, workshop, speakeasy, barn parties or simply the coolest backdrop for whatever. City Mouse meets Country Mouse. Want a garden? Done. Place to host unforgettable parties? Absolutely. Want to say the phrase "We're having the reception in the barn"? You've earned it, if you clean it out. More than a house, it's an experience, a rare combination of classic architecture, thoughtful renovation, & open possibilities. When dusk falls, and the lightning bugs flicker, this house doesn't boast, it glows. A beacon of calm, character, & possibility, a lifestyle that makes space for beauty + rest, in the most creatively charged neighborhood in town.
