About this home

Welcome to one of the oldest, if not THE oldest Cabin in the WNC mountains. This Oak & Poplar log home was built in 1816 by PVT. David Rogers, who served in the war of 1812. This home is steeped w/ history & the pride that has been used to care & maintain this home throughout the years shines. FoxFire movie filmed here! This homestead was owned by the Rogers heirs until 1956 at which time the current family took ownership and maintained the heritage - many Rogers family reunions still take place here! First time on the market for an opportunity to have your own piece of history! Plus the property not only holds this amazing home but also borders US forestry land on 2 sides, has a creak, wonderful views, great hiking, multiple building sites & easy access. Make sure you check out our uploaded articles with history on the home and its heritage. Amazing features from the family plaques, the standing barn on site, the saw marks that can still be seen in the living room hardwoods - its just AMAZING! Nestled close to Highlands & Franklin. Heat source - propane gas logs. Ceiling height ranges 14'vaulted to 6.87-6.25 due to age built. Price listed under recent 2019 3rd party Appraisal!
