Samuel Lowe House

Red Brick Manor

This most exquisite southern mansion reflects Greek Revival architecture with soaring columns, wide southern porches, beautiful unpainted heart of pine wainscotting and sets of pocket doors, a grand entry hall with arched doorway fanlights and a gracefully rising center staircase from which even Scarlett would happily make a spectacular entrance.

The home was built in the late 1800's by John William Samuel Lowe, a Wilkes County landowner who owned extensive property in the City of Washington. Flanking the wide center hall on each side are two beautiful parlors and formal dining room, each with sets of pocket doors and stunning unpainted columned mirrored matching mantles. Gorgeous heart of pine floors and pine wood work glisten as fireplaces add warmth to most every room.

A wonderful home for entertaining boasting multiple parlors and common areas, dining room with mural, sun/garden room that opens to rear patio porch area. The spacious kitchen includes butler's pantry serving area, delightful window seat, island, brick work accents, gas range and eat-in area with fireplace. Grounds encompass brick walks, arbors, firepits, raised planting beds and more.

There are 5 bedrooms in the main house and guest quarters above an 8 car climate controlled garage. Guest quarters consist of two  2-bedroom, 2-bath each accommodations--complete with kitchens and small Juliet balconies. (There is also a c.1784 guest house that can be purchased adjoining the property should one desire).

You will not be disappointed. Nestled in the heart of the Historic District within walking distance of the quaint historic Town Square, shops, restaurants, museums and library (Mary Willis Library - oldest public library in Georgia filled with treasures to discover).

Preserving the best of the past and its ambience while preserving a small town life style for today's pleasures.
