This 4 bedroom 2 bath house set on twenty acres was built in 1848. It is rich in its history and design. General Sherman's scouts spent the night here and as a token of appreciation to the hosts, they did not burn it down. This unique property has a timeless classic design. The yard is planted with a variety of mature plants, flowers and trees. The large pecan trees around the property have been known to produce hundreds of pounds of pecans annually. The large wrap around front porch is supported by solid hand carved columns. Inside the house is an architectural step back in time. The rooms have high ceilings with intricate crown moulding and window casings. This house was built before the time of indoor kitchens and bathrooms. (See more details)Over the years those rooms were integrated into the house and the den area at the back of the house was believed to have been added in the early 1970's. Out back there is a very large covered workshop and storage area. Other structures include a garden setting gazebo and a greenhouse.The front living room has a tin paneled ceiling. From inside the huge attic space you can see just how solid the 170 year old roof truss system is. Hand hewn boards set with wooden nails. The flooring is covered throughout the house with carpet but underneath the carpet are six inch plank tongue/groove hardwood floors.
