The story:
This spacious 4-bedroom/2 bath home is built on the historic Confederate Civil War Prison site near the location of the gates of the prison. The Confederate Prison existed from 1861 - 1865 and consisted of approximately 17 acres. In 1866 the entire site was sold to the Holmes brothers, who began selling lots out of the parcel in about 1885. Mr. George Heilig purchased several lots from Reuben Holmes in 1885 then sold the first lot on the 300 block of E. Bank to David Julian in 1885 for $225.00. Welcome to The Julian-Phillips House.
This stately circa 1885 home features many late Italianate/Victorian details. You'll see this as you step down into the sunken garden yard, rich with perennials and roses, and onto the gracious wrap-around porch, whose roof is supported by handsome corbels, a design element that is repeated long the upper eaves. Inside, parquet and hardwood floors and five fireplaces* greet you throughout.
Downstairs, you'll find a beautiful formal front parlor with original fireplace and handsome wood mantel, a library and a den, the dining room and kitchen. The kitchen offers granite counters, a rimless sink, surface-mount electric cooktop, and plenty of cabinets.
Additionally, a beautiful, very private 25'-long east-facing sunporch overlooking more manicured gardens and a brick patio rounds out the 1st floor.
Morning coffee on the sunporch, anyone?
The expansive and very spacious upper level hosts three more bedrooms, each more gracious than the last, a sitting room, and a large upstairs bath with tile floors, separate shower and claw-foot tub.
The Julian-Phillips House at 309 East Bank Street offers a large parking area to the rear of home at the end of a charming brick drive, more rose gardens, flowering trees, and gardenia bushes enclosed with picket fencing.
