About 168 West Main Street
They say history repeats itself - unless someone preserves it. - Welcome to this Historic Estate in the Heart of Dahlonega Georgia
Discover timeless elegance and modern comfort at the previous Worley Homestead, a beautifully restored 1845-1846 estate nestled in the heart of Dahlonega’s National Historic District. Originally lived in by Captain Jasper F. Worley as his family residence, this rare post-Civil War home now offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Georgia history - whether as a private residence, multi-generational retreat, or legacy property. Currently a successful bed and breakfast called the Dahlonega Inn.
The main home features 7 spacious bedrooms and 7 full bathrooms, thoughtfully arranged with 3 bedrooms on the main level and 4 upstairs. The upper level retains the original 1845 wood walls and stunning heart pine flooring, while all seven fireplaces have been rebuilt with care. The restored upper porch, fresh exterior paint, new fascia and gutters, and complete electrical updates blend historic integrity with modern peace of mind.
This property also includes two separate living quarters with private entrances—ideal for extended family, guest privacy, or income potential:
A detached 2-bedroom, 1-bath guest cottage
A garden-level 1-bedroom, 1-bath apartment with a full kitchen
Walkable to downtown restaurants, shops, and events, this home is located just a block from the Holly Theater and across from the University of North Georgia’s iconic Price Memorial Hall. Enjoy the lifestyle of one of Georgia’s most charming towns, known for its wineries, festivals, and rich Appalachian heritage.
Whether you're looking for a personal sanctuary, a family estate, or a residence with built-in flexibility, the Worley Homestead offers history, heart, and a rare opportunity to live in the center of it all. If you dream of owning something truly irreplaceable, this is your moment. Legacy isn’t bought. Unless it’s here.
