Property Description
Rare opportunity to own one of Oxford's distinctive circa 1880 homes! This historic Asbury Street residence is conveniently located just minutes from Oxford College at Emory and beautifully situated on a .82-acre corner lot. Meticulously maintained and rich in original character, this 4BR, 2BA home welcomes you through a stunning original wood front door framed by beautiful leaded-glass sidelights. An expansive covered front porch, handsome columns, detailed architectural trim, and distinctive decorative railing create a gracious and inviting entrance. Inside, soaring ceilings, gorgeous hardwood floors, substantial moldings, beautifully detailed millwork, expansive windows, and three fireplaces showcase the craftsmanship and character of another era. Multiple living and den spaces, along with a separate dining room, provide wonderful flexibility for everyday living and entertaining. A graceful staircase with turned newel posts and spindles adds to the home's architectural appeal. The spacious kitchen combines charm and functionality, featuring an oversized pantry, separate butler's pantry, and a bank of transom windows above the cabinetry that fills the room with natural light. An enclosed sunroom provides additional living space and opens to an expansive deck, creating an inviting connection to the beautifully landscaped grounds. Distinctive details continue throughout the home, including large cedar closets in all four bedrooms, double-pane sliding glass doors, and numerous updated windows. The home has benefited from improvements over the years, including updates made in the 1990s, while preserving the architectural character and craftsmanship that make this historic home so special. A detached two-car garage provides convenient parking and additional storage. The beautifully landscaped corner lot features mature trees, established plantings, and a wonderful sense of beauty and space. Located just minutes from Oxford College, the Oxford Trail, Asbury Street Park Pavilion, Oxford Park, and downtown Covington, this exceptional property combines the charm and character of a historic home with an enviable location. With its authentic architectural details, expansive covered front porch, beautiful grounds, generous living space, and meticulous care, this extraordinary property offers a rare opportunity to own a truly special piece of Oxford's history.
