Listing Details for MLS #: 10761707

Remarks

Welcome to 285 E Main Street in the heart of Forsyth - a property full of character, charm, and opportunity. Built in 1920 and sitting proudly on a large corner lot, this historic bungalow-style home blends timeless Southern charm with thoughtful updates that make everyday living comfortable and convenient. From the moment you pull up, the massive covered front porch and mature trees immediately set the tone. This is the kind of home that feels welcoming before you ever step inside. With approximately 1,691 square feet, 3 oversized bedrooms, and soaring ceilings, the home offers an open, airy feel that is hard to find in newer construction. Inside, you'll find a blend of historic details and practical upgrades. Natural wood flooring, spacious rooms, and abundant natural light give the home warmth and personality. The kitchen has been refreshed with butcher block countertops, modern appliances, a convection oven and dishwasher. The formal dining area and oversized family room create the perfect setup for entertaining, holiday gatherings, or simply enjoying quiet evenings at home. Location is another major highlight. Situated just minutes from downtown Forsyth, you're close to local shops, restaurants, schools, and community events while still enjoying the feel of a private homesite shaded by mature trees. It's the best of both worlds - historic in-town living with room to breathe. Whether someone is looking for their first home, a charming investment opportunity, or a piece of local history with character you simply cannot recreate, 285 E Main Street delivers personality, space, and value all in one package. Some homes are just houses. This one tells a story the moment you walk onto the porch.
