Description
Beautiful Antebellum home that has had extensive updates through the years and has so much potential for future use such as an event space, Air BnB, or just a spacious and beautiful private home. The home was built in 1859 by local architect William Wharton. It is one of only a few homes listed on the National Historic Register in Cannon County, being used as a women's dormitory for the Baptists Female College and then the Woodbury College from 1859-1917. Then it was owned and used as a private residence by local physician Dr. Jesse Adams from 1924-1934. The details throughout the home do not disappoint with the poplar and ash flooring, large rooms and a total of 9 fireplaces. In addition to all this in the main house, there is a brick outbuilding with 1480 square feet that has a kitchen and full bath that could easily be finished into a comfortable home of its own. With both buildings totaling nearly 6000 sq ft and listed for only $67 per square foot, this makes for an amazing investment for persons seeking a historic BnB operation or wedding venue. The covered upstairs porch overlooking the courtyard is just begging to witness weddings and celebrations of nearby residents. Take a look for yourself and see if this could be your dream come true!
