Love the old picture of the courthouse! This home was built in 1875. It was originally the courthouse, later named the Belvin House in 1903. It is located on .67 acres in Blackshear, Georgia. This home was constructed with locally grown heart pine wood. A lot of the doors and hardwood floors are the original ones from back when it was the courthouse. Seven bedrooms, four bathrooms, and 3,988 square feet. $194,500
