Some properties are just real estate. This one is a piece of Tennessee history.For over 150 years, this eight-acre stretch just outside Cookeville has been home to families who worked it, lived on it, and passed it down. The iconic tobacco barn still stands — weathered and proud — a testament to the generations who shaped this land long before it was anyone's listing. Eight unrestricted acres, gently rolling, with mature trees lining the rear boundary and the kind of quiet you can't manufacture. The home is a 1500 square foot custom-built brick residence — three bedrooms, two full baths, hardwood and tile floors, a corner fireplace, a sunroom, and a two-car attached garage. Solid construction. Move-in ready. Built to last as long as the land it sits on. For the first time in over a century, a new family gets to write their chapter here. Prescott South schools. 4.8 miles to Cookeville. No restrictions. No subdivision. No compromises.
