This beautiful, private 27+ acre farmstead dates back to the turn of the century and features the original 1890's farmhouse. This property will take you back in time to when it was previously a working cattle farm with a hewn, timber livestock barn and separate goat barn near the main house. A newer metal building (quonset hut) has been converted to living quarters for potential income / short term rental and has its own septic system. There are approximately 21 cleared acres and two streams on the property. You'll find amazing long range mountain views from the top of the property along with potential building sites and pastureland for animals and gardening. This unique, historical property is just a short drive from downtown Marshall. Heating sources are wood-stove, fireplace and mini-split unit on main floor. No heating source on 2nd level. Fiber-optic internet thru French Broad Electric. CASH BUYER/AS-IS. No drive-bys. Scheduled showing required.
