Welcome to this stunning 1869 Victorian home, a true gem nestled behind the sweeping oaks on Government Street in the Oakley Garden District. The recognizable historic placard and the southern front porch are just the start of this property’s historic charm and estate-like essence, that combines character, privacy, and luxury with colorful twists and architectural treats you can’t find in modern homes. As you enter, you’re greeted by a beautiful entryway, rich wood floors, high ceilings, and abundant natural light streaming through tall windows. The front office and living room offer picturesque views of the front yards' grand oak with the world passing by on Government Street. Follow the butler's pantry from the roomy dining space into the large open kitchen that overlooks a cozy family room, complete with French doors that open to the back deck. Perfect flow for entertaining!
