Where timeless Southern charm meets extraordinary modern luxury, this one-of-a-kind estate delivers something almost impossible to find: historic character, exceptional craftsmanship, expansive living spaces, and an unbeatable walkable location to all Downtown Duluth has to offer! Originally built in 1889 and recognized as one of the two oldest homes in Historic Downtown Duluth, this architectural treasure was masterfully rebuilt in 2021 by the renowned Drake House Construction & Design. Rather than erase its remarkable past, Drake House Construction embraced it, carefully preserving the historic heart and soul of the original home while thoughtfully designing an extraordinary modern residence around it. The result is truly one of a kind. Over 6,100 square feet of pure character, sophistication, and luxury featuring 5 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, all situated on just under an acre of prime Downtown Duluth real estate. Step inside and prepare to fall in love. Original old-growth red heart-pine floors, historic doors with vintage hardware, and original coal-burning fireplaces with their beautiful surrounds tell a story more than 135 years in the making. These irreplaceable architectural details blend seamlessly with exquisite custom cabinetry, designer tile, luxurious finishes, and thoughtfully curated spaces throughout. Every room feels intentional, elegant, and effortlessly inviting. Designed for both grand entertaining and comfortable everyday living, this home offers room to gather, room to retreat, and room to truly enjoy life. The beautiful foyer parlor features its own beverage station, perfect for mixing up your favorite cocktail or pouring a glass of wine before entertaining guests. A dedicated home office provides a stylish space to get down to business, while the separate mudroom keeps the everyday hustle neatly tucked away. And then there's the spectacular screened back porch! Complete with a grand fireplace and overlooks the expansive backyard, this outdoor living space is practically begging for crisp fall evenings, Saturday football gatherings, morning coffee, and unforgettable nights with friends. With nearly an acre in the heart of Downtown Duluth, the outdoor space alone is a luxury rarely found in this location. The primary suite offers a private retreat worthy of a five-star resort. Its spa-inspired bathroom features a gorgeous soaking tub, an oversized zero-entry shower, and beautifully appointed finishes. The spacious primary closet even features its own window, filling the space with natural light. Generously sized secondary bedrooms with large closets provide comfort and flexibility, while a dedicated workout room and additional bonus room, which could easily serve as a sixth bedroom, ensure there's a place for everyone and everything. But as extraordinary as the home itself is, the LOCATION may just steal the show! Imagine stepping outside your front door and within just a few steps, strolling into Downtown Duluth for dinner, live music, festivals, shopping, coffee, cocktails, and all the energy of one of North Metro Atlanta's most beloved downtown destinations. No need to plan your evening around traffic or parking. Your favorite restaurants, entertainment, and community events are practically in your front yard! Homes like this aren't simply rare. They're nearly impossible to recreate. An iconic 1889 residence, masterfully reimagined for modern luxury, offering more than 6,100 square feet on nearly an acre, all within steps of Downtown Duluth. This isn't just a home. It's a piece of Duluth history, an extraordinary lifestyle, and an opportunity that may not come around again for generations. Welcome home!
