Property Description
Circa 1910, this Historic Coastal Cottage captures the charm and character that make Old Town Brunswick so special. Ideally located within the Historic District, this beautifully preserved home places you just a short stroll from downtown restaurants, galleries, breweries, waterfront parks and year-round community events. Inside, approximately 1,916 square feet showcases timeless craftsmanship with soaring 12-foot ceilings, original antique door hardware, three decorative fireplaces featuring stunning original tile surrounds, and a gracious parlor with functioning pocket doors leading to the formal dining room. The thoughtfully updated kitchen and baths blend modern convenience with historic appeal, while the formal dining room offers flexibility as a potential third bedroom, home office or additional gathering space. A light-filled glass sunroom overlooks the private garden, creating the perfect spot for morning coffee or an afternoon with a favorite book. Outdoors, the fully fenced backyard is a peaceful retreat with a secluded patio surrounded by mature landscaping, plus a large storage building and separate utility shed. The inviting front porch is made for rocking chairs and conversation. Located within the area that hosts Brunswick's beloved annual PorchFest, you'll have the opportunity to host a band on your own porch or simply wander the neighboring streets, enjoying live music performed from historic front porches throughout the community. Recent improvements include a 2024 Owens Corning Duration roof with transferable warranty, foundation enhancements by Alpha Foundations, attic spray foam insulation, an Ecobee smart thermostat, Eufy video doorbell and transferable Sentricon termite protection. This is more than a home. It's an opportunity to become part of one of Coastal Georgia's most vibrant and welcoming historic neighborhoods.
