Property Description

CEDAR PLANTATION - Historic Greek Revival on 8.33 Acres | PRICED TO SELL A rare opportunity to own a piece of Candler County history. Known as Cedar Plantation, this Greek Revival home sits on 8.33 picturesque acres shaded by centuries-old oaks and cedars, just minutes from downtown Metter. The home tells its story in layers: the original cabin rooms at the rear date to 1782, the gracious two-story main section was added in 1825, and the two flanking wings were built in the 1970s - with original wavy-glass windows still in place today. Offering 4,508 square feet, the home features 4 bedrooms, 4 full and 2 half baths, and 8 fireplaces. Two bedrooms sit on the main level (one with a sunken tub/shower combo), while two upstairs bedrooms each enjoy an adjoining bath. Both half baths are conveniently located on the main floor. Inside you'll find preserved heart pine floors, cedar-lined closets, built-in cabinetry, original door hardware and light fixtures, and exposed beams in the historic 1782 portion. The kitchen offers a stainless vent hood, three-compartment stainless sink, KitchenAid cooktop, separate convection oven, and a fireplace in the adjoining breakfast room. Beyond the home, a two-story 44x44 barn/stable, garage, and open acreage offer endless potential - ideal for a residence, bed & breakfast, event venue, or restoration showplace. In need of restoration, but the bones, history, and charm are all here. Bring your vision and make it your own.
