From the Zillow listing:

 

Built in 1900 or possibly earlier, this 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom home is full of character, space, and opportunity for the buyer with vision to bring it back to life. With over 5,000 square feet, the home offers the kind of scale and flexibility that is increasingly hard to find. Inside, you’ll find original hardwood floors downstairs, three decorative fireplaces, updated windows, a large kitchen, and several updated bathrooms already in place. The massive first-floor primary suite creates a practical layout for multi-generational living, offering the option for older family members to stay downstairs while younger family members have space upstairs. One of the upstairs bedrooms even features its own attached full bath, creating the potential for a second primary suite. The living room includes a separate nook that could serve well as a home office, reading area, or playroom. Outside, the covered front porch offers a welcoming spot to relax, while the metal roof adds long-term durability. Situated on a 0.71 acre corner lot within walking distance of shops and restaurants in downtown Ochlocknee, this property combines small-town convenience with the charm and presence of a historic home. This home will require some elbow grease, but for the right buyer, it presents a rare opportunity to create something truly special.
