A very private, beautiful, heavily-wooded four-acre tract. Surrounded on three sides by an historic nature preserve, and on the fourth side by an historic cemetery, which dates back to the Civil War and before. As such it would be virtually impossible for a company to come in and force you out, or to develop in the area.

Property includes three outside buildings, two of which are 8 feet by 16 feet, and one that is 6 feet by 8 feet (formerly used to house an off-grid electrical system). One of the 8feet by 16feet buildings is two feet from the mobile home, and is at the same height, accessible by the back porch. This room could easily be used as a workshop, classroom, storage building, or another bedroom.

The mobile home is a two-bedroom, one bath home, with a bay window in the kitchen. There is a covered front porch, approximately 6feet by 16feet. Roads to the area are well-kept, allowing year-round access. The property is located six miles from a village that has a post office and two 'convenience'  stores.

Asking $35,000 OBO
This farm is located in rural Giles County, Tennessee, about an hour south of Nashville and an hour north of Huntsville, Alabama.  County seat (Pulaski, pop. 3,000) is 15 miles to the south, and next county's seat (Columbia, pop. 33,000) is 15 miles to the north.  The winters are mild, and the growing season is long. Tennessee is a good state for homeschooling and has no income tax.  The main house has 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, and the second house has 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths.  Both houses have front and back decks. 

The 80-year-old barn has been restored, and it features a separate electric meter, spring water, and stalls, a loft, and storage rooms.  Also has other outbuildings (chicken house, lawnmower shed, metal storage shed, etc.).  Pastures are fenced (including the entire road frontage), and the entrance is gated.

Enjoy a slower pace, privacy, and security in a beautiful part of the country.
