Property Description
Historic Grandeur Meets Modern Luxury in the Heart of Madison, The Oak House, Circa 1897 A rare offering in Madison's Historic District, The Oak House stands as a crown jewel of Southern architecture. Originally built in 1897 and honored with a Georgia Trust Award for Historic Preservation, this New South Neoclassical Revival estate sits prominently at the corner of Walton Street and Dixie Avenue, surrounded by formal boxwood gardens, mature trees, and a gated circular drive. Painstakingly restored and expanded with period-sensitive additions beginning in 1992, the home seamlessly blends historic detail with luxurious modern living. Grand yet welcoming, the interior showcases curved doorways, intricate fireplace mantels, and a soaring three-story foyer with a dramatic oak-carved staircase beneath stained-glass skylights. Entertain with ease in the formal double parlors, wet bar, and banquet-sized dining room that seats over 20. The richly appointed smoking room features a coffered ceiling, wood paneling, and built-in bookcases, while the sunroom, den, and spacious side porch offer a range of relaxing retreats. The chef's kitchen boasts an eat-in area, butler's pantry, and direct access to multiple dining and gathering spaces, including covered back decks on both levels. An elevator provides easy access to all floors. The luxurious primary suite is its own private retreat, complete with his-and-hers custom walk-in closets, dual bathrooms, a private exercise room, and access to the upper-level porch. Additional features include: Home office, basement level with wine cellar, gym, two half baths, walk-in cooler, laundry facilities, utility room, and two garage bays, a 1950 square feet guest house with 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and 1 half bath, private pool surrounded by lush landscaping, 3-car detached garage, greenhouse for gardeners and hobbyists and a unique train room in the finished attic-ideal for collectors or creatives. This one-of-a-kind estate offers the perfect fusion of historic charm and modern luxury, all just steps from Madison's beloved downtown. A timeless Southern masterpiece, The Oak House is a home of unparalleled character, elegance, and legacy. Conditional Use Permit approval for Bed and Breakfast in place through September 2027.
