Three Gates Farm

5.86+/- Acres

Overflowing with all the charm of the early 1700’s homes this authentic c.1797 Plantation Plain home, relocated decades ago, is nestled amid lush period plantings, boxwood gardens, camellias, arbors and winding trails and walks representing a peaceful and tranquil lifestyle amid Georgia’s gentle rolling countryside. Located between Athens and Augusta, Georgia, only minutes outside of Historic Washington, Georgia.  Washington has wonderful streets lined with grand columned Antebellums, Victorians and Elegant simple cottages, a true Town Square, three house museums and the oldest, most beautiful public library in the state!

Lovingly named Three Gates Farm, the home is very period, typical Plantation Plain style with shed roof to the rear. There are wide wood board ceilings, some wood walls, mantled working fireplaces in many rooms, gorgeous random width heart of pine floors, wonderful staircase with landing and original elements throughout the home.

There are approximately 1,875 square feet with a partially finished basement containing an additional 576 square feet. The first floor consists of spacious dining room with fireplace, cozy den/study/office, large parlor with fireplace, (or master bedroom with fireplace & bath however new owners should wish to use as also has large walk-in closet), kitchen with pine cabinetry, pantry and breakfast area in front of double windows. The staircase hosts a landing with a window letting natural light stream into the entry foyer as an original newell post beckons one to ascend to two spacious bright bedrooms (both bedrooms with fireplaces) and one bath on the second floor. The basement is partially finished and has outside access.

Other outbuildings situated on the beautiful 5.86 acres are a storage building to the rear of the main house near an inviting patio and a very intriguing weathered tenant house that one views, sitting alone in the hay fields as if it had a story to tell, while approaching the main home down the long meandering drive situated amid towering trees. 

A porch across the front of this early home provides enjoyable evenings, lazy afternoons or early mornings to just sit and soak in the tranquil country atmosphere, gaze at the wildlife and listen to the sounds of nature.  So much potential and possibilities with this hard to fine, one-of-a-kind Jewel!
