A rare opportunity to own a true Southern estate in Auburn. Set on 15.7± private acres within city limits, this custom-built residence was designed in 2006 to capture the character of a historic home while offering the comforts of modern living. Every detail was thoughtfully sourced—remarkable heart pine floors reclaimed from a textile mill in East Alabama, antique solid wood doors from Mercer University, and a 120-year-old front door with wavy glass sidelights preserved from a historic home in Opelika.
The 5,361 sq. ft. interior is defined by 12’ ceilings, generous windows, transoms, and extensive millwork. Four porches, all laid with reclaimed brick pavers, invite you to enjoy Auburn’s natural beauty from sunrise to sunset. Inside, five bedrooms, four full baths, and two half baths offer abundant space for family and guests. The main-level primary suite is a private retreat with French doors to the back porch, a clawfoot tub, heated tile floors, and a custom divided closet.
The chef’s kitchen pairs commercial-grade appliances with a custom cherry island, generous cabinetry, quartz counters, and a sunny breakfast room. A formal dining room with crystal Schonbek chandelier sets the stage for elegant gatherings, while the library with built-ins and fireplace provides a quiet escape. Upstairs, three ensuite bedrooms, a central sitting area, bonus room, and access to the second-level porch complete the layout.
The acreage is graced with magnolias, azaleas, and fruit trees, plus room for a pool, garden, or future equestrian use.
Zoned for Auburn City Schools and located just a short drive from dining, shopping, and Auburn University, this home offers unmatched value and timeless appeal.
Grand yet inviting, historic in feel yet built for today, 476 Pear Tree Road is one of Auburn’s most remarkable offerings—an estate of timeless character, present-day elegance, and enduring beauty.
