This Federal Style home built in 1808 & 1828 is on the National Registry of Historic Places. There is very detailed original molding, wainscoting, and mantels throughout the home. Most rooms also have original heart pine floors. Large porches offer wonderful views of the yard in every direction. An eight year restoration project by the current owners was completed in 2004. They added a modern kitchen and 2 baths with cabinetry and fixtures that are in keeping with the period of the home. Insulation of all walls and ceiling was maximized and solar heat is used as well. Exterior painted fall 2007, cooper roof, new brick underpinning. There are a few projects left if you want to add to the home's majesty. Other buildings include 1850's guest cottage that was an office, which has 1 bedroom, 1 bath, living room, and full dine-in kitchen. Also, an Antebellum kitchen and old smokehouse. There is a formal garden on the private grounds that are surrounded by mature tree lines. Just one visit and you will fall in love with this old country jewel. Janet is the owner and listing agent of this home. This plantation could be the perfect location for your B&B guests to relax and get away from the city life. Three possible private suites immediately plus private innkeepers quarters. Detached Antebellum kitchen could be restored into a guest cottage and there is plenty of room to build more cottages on this 3 acre parcel. Close to Hope Plantation, a popular historic house tour destination. Cash or conventional loan
