About this home
Welcome to the historic Shields-Leverett-Blackwell House in the heart of Downtown Eatonton. We like to call this home "hybrid historic"-beautifully preserved on the outside while extensively and thoughtfully renovated on the inside. Offering approximately 3,850 square feet with six bedrooms and four full baths, this home delivers the character of a true historic property with the comfort and functionality of today.
The previous owner updated and rebuilt the home from the ground up, all new plumbing, wiring and drywall - it was taken down to the studs and thoughtfully put back together to preserve this very special home. Since 2023, the current owners have completed additional extensive custom renovations while being intentional about preserving the character of the home. Throughout the interior, the house was finished with substantial, historically inspired trim, professionally installed custom wallpaper, plantation shutters throughout, updated lighting and carefully selected finishes.
The kitchen features Samsung Bespoke glass-front appliances and a custom-built island with cabinetry, built-in microwave and butcher-block countertop, along with additional custom pantry cabinetry. The exterior received an equally impressive transformation-one that was recognized with an award from the City of Eatonton. Extensive professional landscaping, new sod, a 5 zoned irrigation system, new concrete driveway and walkways, a raised garden area, fencing with an electronic gate, new gutters and a large rear deck were added, along with an oversized two-car carport with attached enclosed storage.
In addition, the home offers a historic workshop and additional storage on both side of the workshop. All mechanical systems and roof are only three/four years old, spray foam insulation in the attic and crawlspace, home is on county water and city sewer with natural gas for the stove. The result is something truly special: a historic home that retains the charm and architectural presence of its past while living like a home that has been renewed for today.
With its beautiful front porch, mature setting and walkable Downtown Eatonton location, 201 N. Madison Avenue is ready for the next chapter in its long history. This is an agent-owned property as both owners are licensed Realtors in the state of Georgia.

What it really costs to own 201 N Madison Avenue
The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from this listing's MLS record, the county tax roll, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.
| Property tax | Buy at the asking price of $895,000 and the first-year bill resets to about $14,450/yr (Putnam County total millage 16.8861 with homestead, FY2025-26); Save Our Homes caps later increases at 3%/yr. |
|---|---|
| Home and flood insurance | The average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Putnam County is $1,345/yr (550 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes differ by roof age, wind mitigation and distance to the coast. The page's modeled range for this home is $4,000–$8,500/yr; neither is a quote. Flood: this address maps to FEMA zone X, outside the high-risk zone; flood insurance is optional but most lenders and insurers recommend it. Statewide, a zone X flood policy runs about $500–$700/yr (FEMA Risk Rating 2.0 averages, not a quote). |
| Roof and age | Built in 1817. An original roof would be about 209 years old; under Florida's 2022 reform (SB 2-D) carriers may require an inspection past 15 years, so budget for a roof report and ask for the roof permit date. |

Price & listing history
Building permits
Comparable recent sales
No closed sales of a similar home within about 10 miles in Putnam County in the last 18 months are in our MLS data set, so this page shows no comparable-sales median or automated estimate for Historic Distrt. A licensed Momentum Realty agent can prepare a property-specific comparative market analysis on request.
The Messtimate
Insufficient local evidence for an automated estimate. The Messtimate is a deliberately simple range — living area × recent closed-sale $/sq ft from comparable homes nearby — and it only renders when at least 3 defensible sales exist within about 10 miles in Putnam County in the last 18 months. None qualify for this home, so no dollar range is shown. It is not an appraisal or a valuation.
Methodology: the range would be 3,852 sq ft × the interquartile $/sq ft of comparable closed sales (same property type, living area within 30%, closed within 18 months, nearest verified subdivision, 3-mile, then 10-mile same-county stage). Estimate for general information only; never an appraisal, valuation, or offer. Updated October 27, 2026.

Items worth confirming for 201 N Madison Avenue, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.
- Built in 1817 (209 years): ask for the roof and HVAC replacement dates — insurers commonly ask for roof age on homes this old, and it changes the premium.
- Confirm whether a mandatory HOA applies to this parcel and what it charges.
- FEMA flood zone X: flood insurance is not usually required, but get a quote anyway — FEMA reports roughly one in four flood claims come from outside high-risk zones.
- Get a homeowners insurance quote for this specific address in Putnam County; a wind-mitigation inspection and, on older homes, a four-point inspection can change the premium.
- Listed living area is 3,852 sq ft: verify it against the property appraiser's record and measure before relying on it.
- Order a survey to confirm lot boundaries and easements.
- Review permit history with the county.
- Property taxes: the estimate on this page (about $10,024/yr) assumes reassessment at the list price; the seller's current bill is not a guide Exemptions and portability change the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser.
- School zoning shown here comes from district data and changes; confirm the assigned schools directly with the district before relying on them.

Frequently asked questions
How big is 201 N Madison Avenue and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 201 N Madison Avenue was built in 1817 and has 3,852 sq ft of living area, 6 bedrooms and 4.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 201 N Madison Avenue in?
201 N Madison Avenue is in Historic Distrt in Eatonton, Putnam County. Too few comparable closed sales exist nearby for this page to show local sales statistics; a licensed agent can prepare a comparative market analysis.
Why might property taxes on 201 N Madison Avenue differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $10,024 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Florida reassesses a home after it sells; for a homesteaded seller the Save Our Homes cap on their assessment does not transfer, and a buyer's own exemptions and portability are applied separately, so the two bills usually differ. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.
Is 201 N Madison Avenue in a flood zone?
The FEMA flood map places this parcel in Zone X, outside the special flood hazard area, so flood insurance is not usually required by a lender. It is still available and worth quoting; confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and your insurer.
Can I rely on the figures on this page?
No. Estimated taxes, insurance, payments, and any market or comparable-sales summary are opinions and estimates for general information only and should not be relied upon. Verify all information independently before making any decision.

Opinion & estimate — do not rely on this page. Any figure on this page that is not a verbatim fact from the listing or a public record — including estimated property taxes, insurance, CDD/HOA amounts, mortgage payments, comparable-sales summaries, and market statistics — is an opinion and estimate provided for general informational purposes only. These figures may be inaccurate or out of date, are not appraisals, valuations, or financial, legal, tax, or investment advice, and should not be relied upon. Do not make any purchase, offer, financing, or other decision based on this page.

Estimate methodology. Tax estimates apply county millage to the list price (less the homestead exemption where the parcel is matched to the certified roll) and will differ from the actual assessed bill. Cost and market figures are derived from available data and simple calculations, not a professional appraisal. We make no representation that any estimate reflects fair market value.
