Description

Welcome to Boxwood, one of Covington's most treasured historic properties, located in the heart of the city known as the Hollywood of the South. Just steps from Covington's vibrant downtown square, renowned restaurants, boutiques, filming locations, and year-round events, this remarkable property offers an unmatched opportunity to enjoy the very best of downtown living while also presenting potential for professional office or commercial use. Originally built in 1830 and thoughtfully expanded over the decades, Boxwood blends nearly 200 years of history with modern-day comfort. From the moment you enter through the original front door, you're greeted by architectural details that simply cannot be replicated today-from the sweeping curved staircase and stained-glass windows to the handcrafted columns and intricate millwork that showcase the home's rich heritage. The main level features a spacious primary suite with double vanities, a soaking tub, and separate shower, along with a charming library, elegant parlor, formal dining room, and a beautifully equipped kitchen complete with abundant cabinetry, an island, major appliances, and a wine cooler. Upstairs, each bedroom enjoys its own private bath, creating comfortable accommodations for family, guests, or professional use, while an upstairs laundry room adds everyday convenience. Outside, the renowned Boxwood garden creates a private retreat unlike any other. Brick walkways wind through lush landscaping, while historic brick walls provide a sense of seclusion and timeless beauty. Relax on the back porch with plantation shutters and enjoy views of this enchanting outdoor sanctuary or go to the Cricket Frog Trail that is less than a half mile away and has 15+ miles of walking trails. Whether envisioned as a stunning private residence, an elegant bed-and-breakfast, or a distinguished office space in one of Georgia's most recognizable downtown destinations, Boxwood offers a rare opportunity to own a landmark property in the heart of Covington's thriving and ever-popular Hollywood of the South.
