About this House

Step into a piece of Macon history at this beautifully remodeled, 1900 Mill Hill: East Macon Arts Village home. Located minutes from downtown Macon, the home sits directly across from Bicentennial Park and offers convenient access to Ocmulgee Mounds National Historical Park, the Ocmulgee Riverwalk, local hospitals, and the Macon Coliseum.
