Spend the night in history. Secluded 1828 Federal Style Home is 5 min from market / gas; 15 from Walmart & other dining and shopping. 15 acre homestead inside of 100 acre farmland convenient to Nashville and Huntsville. Master bed/bath with hand carved 1800s bedroom suite (queen bed); non-functional but beautiful fireplaces in each room, vaulted ceilings, hand carved trim and doors, large windows to watch sunset over hills and fields of grain. Beautiful porches, landscapes, and scenery.
This is a beautiful, historic home that is listed in the National Historic Register. Built in 1828 you will be stepping back in time when you stay here. Take time to notice all the amazing, intricate craftsmanship of this home. The beautiful fireplaces in each room are wonderful to look at and add to the historic feel of the home but they are non-functional, please do not attempt to use.
We recently put new energy efficient windows in the main living and kitchen area which helps the heating and cooling of our home immensely but during cold snaps the house can still be drafty due to the rock walls and brick flooring as well as the original windows in the historic part of the house as well.
Please be mindful that you are renting a 200 year old home surrounded by farmland. It has original rock walls, original brick flooring and very old windows. Our bathrooms are getting an update during our next renovation but please be aware that the tubs drain slowly and have some staining that is permanent but they have been sanitized!
The 6th president of the United States was in office when this home was constructed. Because of that it can smell musty if we've had a lot of rain and in certain times of the year you may see stink bugs or lady bugs or an occasional mouse. This is the country after all!
Although we have modernized and have wifi and cell service, and all major services and appliances, take a moment to unwind and relax. Sit on the back porch and watch the fireflies or gaze at the stars and milky way which are incredibly bright because there is almost no light pollution.
Due to covid delays our remodel of our outdoor area has been delayed. You will notice a new screened in porch which is still awaiting screening. Our new shed area is almost complete (with a new hot tub) but you will notice our beautiful landscaping has taken a beating with recent storms, freezes and construction. Please excuse some of the landscaping roughness while you enjoy our new amenities.
You will have access to the entire home. Please stay out of the shed as well as the old barn on the property.
Respect all wildlife, no hunting, fireworks or firearms allowed on the property.
We live in the Middle TN area and will be available by phone if you should need us during your stay.
This is a secluded area but you are within 15-20 minutes of Columbia with many restaurant and shopping conveniences.
Owners have a cat and dogs that will not be here during your reservation but they do occasionally come inside, please be aware if you have allergies.
