Gilbert, 
Hi, welcome to Spider ID. 🙂 You have a Pholicidae (Cellar Spider). These are usually difficult to narrow down, but I think I recognize yours … Artema atlanta. It is considered to be the largest of all the Pholcids. Thank you for sharing.
Note to admin.: species page needed for Artema atlanta.
Moved.
It was identified as a Cellar Spider by our Site Moderator and Site Administrator.
I found a spider that is very similar, although leg legs on the one I found in my home do not have the light and dark bands.
