The Colonel Edward Bird House, built in 1870, offers a rare chance to restore a piece of Georgia history. Located on a large corner lot in the Guyton Historic District and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home spans approximately 3,000 sq ft and retains original features including four fireplaces, hardwood floors, tall windows, and a central staircase. The home requires full renovation but offers strong bones and irreplaceable period details ideal for preservation. Also included is a newly constructed 360 sq ft outbuilding with electrical and plumbing rough-ins-ready to finish as a guest house, studio, or rental. Perfect for renovators or investors looking for a historically significant project with long-term value. Property sold as-is.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
