The Pitts Home

28 Wesley Street

This sweet, mustard colored Victorian Bungalow was built for the Salbide family between 1904 and 1906 and believed to have been initially built as rental property. The home has a wrap-around front porch, two original front doors with stained glass and porch decking which was hand-painted by Debbie Pitts. Other lovely features of this home include the original metal roof, five fireplaces – all with distinctive mantels, and a very unique pull-down oil chandelier in the formal living room. The family room was originally an open porch that features a fireplace built with bricks from the original Newnan Middle School. The hall bath, added in the 1970’s, has the original claw-foot tub. The master bathroom has a very unique child’s bathing sink. With the exception of the family room, all rooms have 12” ceilings, picture molding, and pine floors. Renovating this home has been a labor of love since the Pitts purchased the home in 2012. Renovations during the past include, two walls of custom-built bookshelves in added the home’s nook, upgrades to the kitchen, including new ceiling tiles, along with a new side deck. Several Pieces of artwork and photography seen throughout the home are works by the homeowners, other family members, and beautiful original works by local artist, Martin Pate.
