Property Description
A unique opportunity to acquire the legendary Shirley Hills estate ''Greenleaf.'' Exceptional 1941 Georgian-revival home designed by renowned classicist Elliott Dunwody carefully sited on 13.26 acres of rolling wooded land in the heart of historic Shirley Hills. This elegant home offers 5 bedrooms, 6.5 baths and extraordinarily fine original details. The primary façade fronts Twin Pines Drive and exhibits symmetrical massing and monumental Georgia-revival details. The secondary façade exhibits a more playful yet refined asymmetry. A gracious hall connects both entrances and is centered on an elliptical winding staircase of singular elegance and proportions. Formal spaces include a front-to-back parlor with fireplace, a paneled dining room, and lovely library with fireplace. An enchanting sunroom overlooks the serene grounds. A renovated eat-in-kitchen overlooks a keeping room with fireplace and features a commercial gas range, oven, icemaker and subzero refrigeration. A handy mudroom connects an attached 2-car garage. There is a convenient guest suite on the main floor and a charming gallery with patterned floors leads to an additional full guest bath. The second floor includes a sprawling primary suite with dual walk-in closets and dressing areas, bath with shower, and a sunroom/sleeping porch with dreamy, soaking tub. A private guest suite and two large secondary bedrooms with individual yet complementary adjoining baths, laundry room, service stair, and full walk-up attic complete the second floor. The walkout, daylit basement bonus room with fireplace leads to an absolutely charming walled terrace with dual fishponds and views of the serene, wooded grounds. This estate has been featured on home tours including the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation's 2021 Ramble and the treatise on Elliott Dunwody, AIA. An extraordinary opportunity to occupy a grand architectural treasure in an incomparably private wooded setting minutes from vibrant downtown Macon, Interstates 16 and 75, and two major hospitals.
