Property Description
Built in 1790, 212 Water Street is one of Washington, Georgia's oldest homes-a rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully updated piece of the town's early history. Set on a desirable historic street just two blocks from downtown, the home offers the character of an 18th-century residence and the ease of in-town living. Step inside and the scale is a surprise. A wide, long foyer leads to grand, light-filled rooms with 10-foot ceilings, original heart pine floors, wide baseboards, and preserved mantels. The spacious living room features a working gas fireplace. An equally generous dining room offers plenty of space to host. In the kitchen, granite and live-edge butcher block countertops complement a 36-inch Wolf gas range with griddle and a three-zone beverage cooler. The first-floor primary suite has a spacious bedroom and en-suite bath. Another downstairs bathroom features a freestanding soaking tub and stained-glass window. Upstairs, two large, airy bedrooms with high ceilings share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom. Every bathroom has a walk-in shower. A dedicated office, generous storage, and a climate-controlled bonus room add flexibility throughout the home. Then, at the rear of the home, discover its enchanting Savannah-style brick courtyard framed by an iron railing, brick pillars, and mature landscaping. Picture morning coffee beneath the trees, outdoor dinners, and evenings spent with friends. Washington was the first chartered town in the United States named for George Washington, and its historic square remains part of daily life. Walk downtown for coffee, shops, and restaurants; catch a production at Washington Little Theater or an outdoor movie on the square; or get to know people through newcomer lunches and regular social gatherings. Groceries and Wills Memorial Hospital are nearby, while Athens, Lake Oconee, and Augusta are within reach. For someone relocating to Georgia, 212 Water Street offers both an extraordinary historic home and an inviting town to become part of.
