Historic House on the Hill

This spacious, historic estate is ideal for large groups. It has 2 floors with individual locks for each bed room. Private mini fridges in each room. The estate has little over half an acre that would be great for cook outs or family functions. The home has 7 bedrooms, 5 sofas and 3.5 bathrooms. It is also within walking distance of the Kellogg Conference Center that has a public restaurant and bar inside. 15 minutes driving distance to Auburn. 45 mins to Montgomery. 50 mins to Wetumpka. This historic property was built in 1925 by Tuskegee Institute using student labor bricks and materials made by Tuskegee Normal and Industrial College students for the Dean of Men at the time, Dr. AJ Neely the mentor of Ralph Ellison and Iceberg Slim. Neely is one of the few historic institutional figures honored with his burial at the Campus cemetery, where Booker T and Carver are also interned. The house has 2 grand porches that allow residents to enjoy the beautiful surroundings while being conveniently located in the in walking distance to the Tuskegee University campus and facilities, the national parks and athletic facilities on campus. Host will respond to emails and texts promptly, as per request. The property is located in a neighborhood with primarily older, tenured property owners. The area is quiet and private. It is within walking distance of the campus eatery that is located at the main gates on campus next door to the campus bookstore and novelty shop. It is located next to the Tuskegee University athletic fields and courts. When these events occur, they can be seen and heard from this location. Enjoy the mellow tunes of the Crimson Piper Band. You will need your own transportation for anything off campus. There are several home town restaurants and eateries in town that may be worth the venture.

Loved the charm of the house. "Historic" is an accurate term. Right next to Tuskegee University. Beds were comfortable. E-mail communication prior to the trip was great,, but when we tried the phone number that we were given, we were told it is an international number.
