At the foothills of the Chattahoochee National Forest lies this charming civil war cabin sitting on 10.86 acres that has stood since the 1860’s. The original cabin is well preserved and serves as the living room and loft of the now three bedroom / three bath home. A wood burning fireplace stands where they would have burned many fires, and some of the old tools found on the land now hang on the large beam supporting the loft. The rock from the original chimney, which was destroyed by a storm, now forms a wall lining the drive into the property. The loft presently serves as an office, but can also be used as a third bedroom. The other two bedrooms are on opposite ends of the house separated by a full bath, dining room, and kitchen. The bedroom off of the original cabin has a walk in closet and full bath, featuring a slipper bear claw tub, walk in shower, and a french door leading out to a small rock landing with steps, overlooking a rock waterfall pond just to the side of the original smokehouse. The master bedroom is off of the kitchen and has a large walk in closet with pull down stairs leading to storage. The master bath includes a soaker tub and walk in shower. The kitchen and dining room share the original rock chimney, which has been refaced, with fireplaces on each side. Thermostat controlled ventless gas logs have been installed in both the kitchen and dining room fireplaces. A 6’ x 10’ laundry room is just off the kitchen and displays a view of the original smoke house through an exterior french door leading to a cement patio, the original 50 foot rocked cistern, and a car porch. Opposite the laundry room is another exterior door leading to a screen porch. Once outside you will notice landscaping (complete with lighting), the original corn crib (with some modifications), the original 100 + year old barn, a smaller barn, and creosote three rail fencing around two separate pastures. Bordering the Northeast side of the property is a spring fed creek complete with water crest, which the present owners have never seen run dry. Several arrowheads have been found on the land, and there are sure to be more hidden treasures should someone take the time to excavate.
