Must see! 150 years of Macon history, restored and ready for its next owner. A true 1870 Victorian in the heart of Macon's InTown historic neighborhood, lovingly restored and genuinely move-in ready. From the moment you step into the grand foyer with its inlaid wood and marble, you can tell this home has been cared for the right way.
