Description
HISTORIC CENTURY FARM HOME AWAITS YOUR VISION
Step back in time with this rare piece of American history! The Shanks farmhouse, officially recognized by the State as a Century Farm Home, is now available for the first time ever. Built in 1900, this charming two-bedroom, one-bathroom residence sits peacefully in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains in East Tennessee, situated on 22 acres.
Need a project to pour your heart into? This home definitely needs some tender loving care, but that's where your creativity comes in! Imagine restoring this historic gem to its former glory while adding your own modern touches. The possibilities are as endless as the gorgeous views.
Speaking of views - prepare to be wowed! The property offers serene privacy while overlooking the rolling hills and mountain ranges of Hawkins County. Your morning coffee just got a major upgrade!
This isn't just buying a house; it's acquiring a living connection to our nation's past. The walls of this home have witnessed over 120 years of American history - if only they could talk! What stories they might tell about the generations of the Shanks family who called this place home.
Want more land? Good news! This property can be purchased with additional acreage. (Information sourced from tax records and third parties. Prospective buyers and their agents should verify all details.)
