One doesn't just buy a home like this, it becomes a part of you, and you become a part of the history that surrounds this great place. Known locally and the "Phelps Acres" home, this gorgeous 151 year old home was built on land that was conveyed to the Phelps family via a land grant for the elder Phelps' service in the American Revolution. In 1875 this amazing home purportedly replaced earlier log structures, and was no doubt a showplace property in that time period, just as it is today. Each owner has added their own touches, but you can still feel the history all around. There's even a huge "Sideboard/Buffet" in an upstairs bedroom that is believed to have been placed inside the home during the time it was being built, and it has obviously remained in the same room for over 150 years. A modern kitchen and large laundry room add 21st century touches, while original hardwood floors and trim remind you that you are somewhere "special". 3 bedrooms and a full bath on each floor provide spacious living, and a second floor deck is the perfect place to sneak away for a private moment beneath the shade of the huge Maples. Both a formal dining room and a breakfast nook, just off the kitchen, provide either a quiet morning experience, or welcome a bustling, crowded dining experience with friends or family. A new roof, and two separate, modern HVAC systems will keep you dry, warm, and cool. A good flowing, undeveloped spring located just outside the fence adds a nice touch, and was undoubtedly used by many generations before the current, county water system was even imagined. Conveniently located to both Jamestown and Russell Springs, and you will want to keep a boat in one of the garage spaces, because beautiful Lake Cumberland is just minutes away. And you'll want to bring along those clubs, because one of the most beautiful courses around is just minutes away. Call today to arrange a guided tour of this gorgeous, historic home. There are no special permits or requirements involved in owning or occupying this great piece of history. You can make it uniquely yours. A new survey will be provided by the seller.
