Surrounded by mature landscaping and wooded acreage adjoining the picturesque grounds of Shorter University, the property provides a rare combination of privacy, acreage, and convenience to downtown Rome. A stately columned front porch welcomes you into a home featuring spacious living areas, abundant natural light, refinished hardwood floors, updated lighting, and distinctive architectural details.

One main-level suite offers an accessible, thoughtfully designed layout ideal for guests, extended family, or convenient everyday living. Upstairs, a beautiful spiral staircase and separate rear staircase lead to three additional bedrooms, including a newly renovated primary suite with a Bain soaking tub, double quartz vanity, and Kohler fixtures. Generous storage includes an expansive cedar closet. Extensive improvements throughout the home include a new roof, updated plumbing, modernized electrical systems, three new main electrical panels, two tankless water heaters, refinished floors, and renovated bathrooms. The expansive walk-out lower level offers exceptional flexibility for multigenerational living, guest accommodations, a home office, fitness studio, recreation room, or workshop. Currently featuring a den with fireplace, bedroom, laundry room, half bath, second large den, and former darkroom, this level has received significant infrastructure upgrades, including new flooring, PEX plumbing, extensive electrical wiring, dedicated high-voltage service, and plumbing provisions for a future bathroom. Interior and exterior access further enhance its versatility. Outside, a private brick courtyard garden, established landscaping, mature trees, and 2.51 acres of wooded grounds create a peaceful retreat in one of Rome's most established residential neighborhoods.
