Opulent Forsyth Park Estate. Designed to complement the famed Forsyth fountain by acclaimed architect, G.L. Norman, for Lawrence McNeil, this Greek revival mansion was completed in 1903. Truly unparalleled, this is the only private estate facing the fountain and is delicately wrapped in porches to supply sweeping views of the park filled with dazzling live oaks dripping in Spanish moss. Corinthian columns, a vast veranda, and resplendent estate crest take you back in time and put this home in a class of its own. An elegant stairway provides entry to the home where once inside, you are immediately drawn to the hand carved ionic wooden columns, Italian marble fireplace, and elegant grand staircase. This sophisticated home with over 10k sq ft features spacious and bright formal rooms that flow seamlessly throughout offering endless possibilities. Upstairs you will find 4 generous bedrooms and 3 baths. On the grounds sits a carriage house with two tenant occupied 1 bed 1 bath units.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
