About this home

Rare opportunity in the Dearing Historic District. The Sylvanus-Morris House, circa 1865, is named after the first Dean of the UGA Law School. The property has not changed hands in 35 years and is completely move-in ready. This gorgeous grand dame with its attractive front porch sits just half a block from Milledge Avenue and is a rare blend of historic presence and everyday convenience. Inside, the home offers a unique, yet highly functional floor plan anchored by a true center hall on the main level that creates natural flow throughout. A dedicated office on the main level beckons the next writer, thinker, or remote professional. The living room features a gas "coal" fireplace that adds spirit and warmth to an already soul-inviting space. From there, the layout moves seamlessly into the spacious dining room, through a butler's pantry, and into an eat-in kitchen that is accented by a brick fireplace. This is the kind of inviting kitchen that makes you want to linger. Then, step out...
