Description
Welcome to one of the oldest homes in Sullivan County. The original structure, built in 1785, makes it older than the State of Tennessee itself! Step back into time with this late colonial era home site sitting on 5 acres of park-like land nestled on the banks of Beaver Creek. This home would make an ideal Bed & Breakfast, wedding venue or vacation rental. The possibilities are truly only limited by your vision and imagination. The L-shaped wrap around porch invites guests to come experience Southern hospitality. The sunroom allows you to bring the outside in and leads into the spacious kitchen that maintains its country-chic charm while offering modern day conveniences. Off the kitchen you'll find a spacious laundry room and storage room that has an original free-standing wash basin. Upon entering the front door of the home, you'll see that character and charm abound, from the powder room tucked under the antique staircase, to thoughtfully placed stained glass windows and built-in bookcases. The living room is filled with light and centered around the brick fireplace, leading into the formal dining room. Completing the main level is the master bedroom and bath, while upstairs you'll find three large bedrooms and bathroom. The spacious cottage has one bedroom and one bathroom, complete with kitchen, laundry, screened in porch and carport. The property has been successfully used as a campground during the many race weekends that have made the area famous. The campground is completed by several private showers for camping convenience. Although the intimate proximity to a main road is good for business exposure, the traffic noise is subtle and not a disturbance. Storage is plentiful with the walk-up attic and one car garage, and the previous historical elements lend even more, including the root cellar, smoke house, and chicken house. All info deemed reliable, Buyer to verify
