Two stories of artisan woodwork cut with hydropower mills in the 1880's and finished by hand, crowned with a beautiful walnut staircase that's inviting and comfortable for any group. A perfect space to entertain, relax and enjoy each other's company. The "Poff" home is a classic American Four Square built by W.J. "Jack" and Minnie Poff, owners of the local mill and distillery that provides ideal accommodations for multiple families, reunions, and large group gatherings.
Typical of Southern homes built before electricity and air conditioning (it now has both), a spacious covered porch wraps around three sides of the home providing a wonderful place to sit, relax and enjoy the ambience of lightning bugs and summer rain storms.
Inside you’re greeted by the walnut staircase and parlor to the right with the a set of pocket doors leading to the wood paneled dining room with spacious seating for 10. The master suite with a solid wood king sized bed is to the left. A modern kitchen equipped with all the pots, pans, dishes, and cutlery any culinary savvy family would find useful for typical meal prep with an adjacent breakfast nook with seating for 7.
Upstairs you’ll find 4 additional bedrooms. Three with queen sized beds and a fourth with dual trundle beds. An additional sitting room with a hide-a-bed sofa is adjacent to one of the queen rooms. Down the hall is a laundry room with washer and dryer with an covered second story porch with outdoor seating.
Over 30 original pieces of artwork sourced locally are scattered throughout the home.
Three full bathrooms, two with original claw foot tubs when indoor plumbing was added in the early 1900’s and one with a corner shower.
