From the Zillow listing:
Historic “Big White House” off Chaires Cross Road with incredible potential. Spanning 2.9 acres beneath the shade of majestic live oaks, this iconic residence—built prior to 1900—offers 2,652 square feet in the main house with SEVEN spacious bedrooms, a sunroom, and a charming front porch complete with a swing. The nearly three-acre property also features a large concrete pool, three additional structures, and two parcels across the street, all in the center of the growing Chaires community. Steeped in history, this home has retained much of its turn-of-the-century charm, from soaring ceilings and solid wood doors to original hardwood flooring visible in the kitchen. Zoned commercial, it presents endless opportunities—whether transforming it into a bed & breakfast, a private estate, event space or other venture. As a contributing property within the Chaires Historic District, it is believed to be part of the very first plat surveyed in Leon County. Long admired and eagerly anticipated for restoration, this one-of-a-kind property is ready for its next chapter. For 125+ years, it’s been the heart of Chaires. Now it could be yours
