Welcome to Madison Oaks at Poullain Heights-where more than 120 years of Southern elegance and French heritage blend seamlessly with modern comfort and style. Just a short stroll from downtown Madison, you're close enough to hear the courthouse bells toll the passing hours from the town's historic heart. This c.1905 Neoclassical Greek Revival estate, imagined by acclaimed Atlanta architects Denny and Wachendorff, was built by the Poullain family-descendants of Antoine Poullain, who came to America as part of the Marquis de Lafayette's medical team. Lovingly preserved through generations, this home stands as a testament to enduring beauty, history, and thoughtful stewardship. The first impression is unforgettable: towering white columns rise from a landscape shaded by the century-old oak allee and one of Madison's last remaining historic pecan groves. Step into the grand hall, where the original pine floors glow with patina and dual chandeliers light the way to a sweeping staircase. To the right, original glass-paneled pocket doors reveal a moody, modern study. To the left, matching doors open to a sunlit parlor graced with a crystal chandelier and views of the formal gardens. Beyond another set of glass pocket doors, the formal dining room awaits-graciously scaled for grand celebrations, yet warmly intimate for cherished gatherings. It was here, well into the 1950s, that the Poullain family upheld a beloved tradition: Friday night formal dinners where only French was spoken, honoring their heritage with elegance and ceremony. Just off the dining room lies the piazza-a distinctive oval veranda framed by carved balustrades and stately columns. From this vantage point, you're immersed in the tranquility of the Victorian-era garden, centered around a striking 10-foot water feature -a timeless setting for both quiet reflection and festive outdoor entertaining. Toward the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen is designed for both function and flair: professional-grade stainless appliances, custom local cabinetry, and a new quartzite island. The adjoining breakfast area overlooks both garden and pool-a perfect spot for casual dining. The living room offers a comfortable retreat, recently renovated with coffered ceilings, a cozy fireplace, and a large TV-ideal for unwinding. Two covered porches invite you to enjoy the outdoors all year long. Ascend to the second level and be greeted by the original Art Nouveau stained-glass window-a striking centerpiece once considered a status symbol of early 20th-century home design. It's just the beginning of the refined and elegant experience that awaits upstairs. Wake each morning to the soft glow of sunrise over the formal gardens in a private newly designed Primary Suite. The majestic Ionic capitals of the towering white columns frame your view, while the historic oak allee stretches out in quiet grandeur. This serene, light-filled retreat blends the grace of the past with the comforts of modern luxury-an elevated experience of living in a home rich with history. And there's more: a junior guest suite and an additional bedroom, both thoughtfully appointed, along with an original bathroom that retains its historic charm. Together, they complete the upper level-offering comfort, privacy, and timeless elegance for family and guests alike. Life at Poullain Heights naturally flows to the outdoors. From serene garden paths to the resort- style pool, every corner invites relaxation or celebration. The pool deck is perfect for entertaining and ready for an outdoor kitchen upgrade. Own a piece of Madison's history while enjoying the lifestyle you deserve. Schedule your private tour of Poullain Heights today-your dream home awaits.
