Hear that lonesome whistle blow….Listen to the Hank Williams Festival from the balcony of this fabulous circa 1890 Greek Revival home in the heart of Hank Williams’ hometown of Georgiana, AL. This iconic home is in excellent condition. The current owners have lovingly maintained it. The front has a fantastic wrap-around porch and an adorable covered balcony above. Enter into the vast entrance hall and feel like you have been transported back in time, gazing at the stately staircase and beautiful hardwood flooring. There are lovely french doors and high ceilings with working transoms creating a light flowing feeling throughout. There is so much living area downstairs with a living room, a large formal dining room, an informal dining room, a large kitchen, a breakfast nook, and a huge den. Three bedrooms and two baths are found downstairs, and a great office with lots of cabinetry and storage. Upstairs is a very large wide open hallway leading out onto the balcony. Four large bedrooms flank each side of the hallway, and a charming bathroom with a clawfoot tub is shared by the upstairs bedrooms. The charm and craftsmanship of this home are outstanding. There are endless possibilities for adding your own decorating touch. This home is solid and sturdy and has been kept up wonderfully for a home of its’ age. It would make a gracious family home, or it could easily be used as a Bed and Breakfast! The metal roof is only 8 years old. The Hank Williams museum and his boyhood home are just across the RR tracks from the house. Located only 5 minutes from I-65 and located just a 15-minute drive to Greenville; 20 minutes to Andalusia. Mobile, Pensacola, Montgomery, and Birmingham all provide commercial airports. Right on the way and right off of the interstate for beach travelers.
