Our tour guide was phenomenal and truly knowledgeable about the house, its history, and about its various stages of restoration. The house itself is breathtaking! You would hardly know such a hidden gem sits right downtown. Even from the outside, it looks like it could be just another stately brick mansion - but the inside is absolutely stunning. The craftsmanship, detail, and opulence is amazing. I've seen many restored houses, but this one is a testament to the dedication of the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation. You will feel like you've stepped into a different era in every room of this Italian Renaissance house.

An awesome historical house, a perfect place to find history that never made it into the books. If you live in Macon or simply just visiting, take a few hours and take a tour. If you are touring when the weather isn't too hot, take the extended tour upstairs. It's just another $5 and definitely worth the view. Tours start every hour.
