Listed on the National Register of Historic Homes, this is the Austin Young Sr. House, built in 1866; a rare example of a surviving Greek Revival style side-hall Coastal Cottage. Painstakingly restored in 2004-2005 this exceptional house retains the original exterior and interior details but has a beautiful updated interior to include all the modern conveniences. Located in Dariens historic district and adjacent to the shrimp docks, this home is wonderful to live in full-time as it is now, or used as a Vacation Home, B&B, Gallery, or Office. This is a meticulously restored 3 bedroom, 2 full-bath home situated in the Vernon Square Historic District on two professionally landscaped city lots, each measuring 60' X 120'. There is 2,466 heated square feet of every attention to detail restoration inside and out. All original windows, many with original wavy glass. There are 680 square feet of beautiful screened porches perfect for relaxation and entertaining. The majority of the original 142-year square-nailed heart pine floors have been saved and all have been beautifully restored. All original bead board and plaster ceilings throughout the home. All new modern wiring, plumbing, HVAC system, insulated walls and floors. Huge eat-in kitchen with all new GE Profile stainless appliances with built-in microwave oven. Large master bedroom and modern master bath with walk-in stone tiled shower and his and her sinks. Unheard of huge walk-in clothes closet in master bedroom with large closets for the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms. The original fireplaces and mantles stand out in the study and 2nd bedroom. Large walk-in cedar-lined extra closet for winter clothes or storage. Family room is all original with bead-board walls and ceiling. The entire home has been painstakingly painted in original period eye-popping color schemes. There is a large workshop in the rear of the home and a large circular reproduced historic tabby driveway brings your quests right up to the huge screened-in porches. Property taxes are less than $1,400 annually and the home is connected to city water, sewage and natural gas. Darien is located 15 minutes north of beautiful coastal Brunswick, 20 minutes from the beaches of St. Simons Island, 45 minutes south of Savannah, Georgia and 45 minutes north of Jacksonville, Florida. Some of the best seafood on the coast is a 10 minute walk from the home. An absolute MUST SEE for the buyer looking for a turnkey, move-in ready historic beauty on the Georgia coast. We are listing our beautiful home for sale because I have been transferred to another part of the state and will consider paying part or all closing costs dependent upon the final selling price.
