This is a rare find – a gracious historic home with fine architectural detail and modern appointments sensitively added. Quality is apparent as you approach the gated entryway – this home is set privately back from a paved country road. Huge trees guard the home site.

The wide center hallway evokes times past. To the left is a comfortable sitting parlor with one of many fireplaces, that flows gracefully to the expansive gameroom – added along with a garage in the 1990’s. Note the seamless architectural detail weaving old and new together.

To the right is the master bedroom and master bath. Two additional bedrooms and bath and a half create room for family and guests.

A chef’s kitchen features hard surface countertop and top-end appliances. Love entertaining? The kitchen overlooks a cozy den and bright sunroom.

This property features 130 acres in total, with about 30 acres of pasture and the balance in rolling hardwoods and pines, with an extensive trail system and over 4,000’ of creek frontage. There are two older barns, and an garden shed. A deck and in-ground pool make backyard entertaining a joy.

The Garr estate in located in northern Monroe County – just 8 miles from I-75 and within an easy hour drive of downtown Atlanta and Hartsfield International Airport.
