Step back in time to this family owned estate built in the early twentieth century. Once inside the front door, you’re greeted by tall ceilings, large rooms and details that remind you of years gone by! Boasting over 4200 sq ft with 4 beds and 3 baths, this home offers potential yet unseen. Sitting on almost 16 acres of unrestricted land, this property is bordered by the Second Broad River and features a detached 3 car garage, in-ground pool and a pond along with multiple outbuildings. Find yourself enjoying the fall mornings rocking on the covered front porch or spend your evenings down by the river listening to the peaceful river sounds lounging in the gazebo that offers electricity. And what about those rainy days? No worries…this home offers a rare Porte Cochere for loading and unloading passengers. Whether you’re looking for a large home to enjoy hosting holiday gatherings or great land to farm and garden, this property offers both!
