Property Description

Set on 8.5 level acres in the quiet town of Rutherford, this early American farmhouse offers a rare blend of history, land, and the relaxed rural lifestyle many buyers look for in Tennessee. Built in 1920 with Colonial Revival influence, the home stands with tall front columns, a wide covered porch, and simple, classic lines that have held their charm for generations. The property has been well cared for over the years, and the home feels solid and comfortable, with a layout that can work for a variety of needs and living styles. With approximately 4,914 sq ft of interior space, the home features hardwood floors, a formal entryway, and a kitchen and living room with skylights and a gas log fireplace insert. A sunroom wrapped in windows looks out across the acreage and brings in natural light throughout the day. There is also a formal dining room, several sitting areas, and a spacious bonus room. The oversized 18x18 bedrooms offer plenty of room for furniture, seating areas, or workspaces. The kitchen includes quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, double ovens, an oversized sink with disposal, built-in storage, and a walk-in pantry. Updates such as thermopane windows, spray foam insulation, natural gas, high-speed internet, and underground utilities help support comfortable everyday living. Outdoors, the lifestyle potential becomes clear. The land is fully usable and level, providing space for horses, gardening, outdoor projects, or simply enjoying the openness around you. A large, well-stocked pond sits near the home and naturally becomes a gathering point for spending time outside, watching wildlife, or relaxing by the water. Mature shade trees, pecan trees, myrtle bushes, and long views across surrounding farmland create a quiet, grounded setting that reflects the rhythm of country living. A standout feature of the property is the authentic 1800s log cabin that remains on the acreage, adding character and a sense of heritage you don't often find anymore. Additional improvements include a 30x40 wired workshop, a storage building, dedicated hay storage, fenced area for livestock, an outdoor kitchen area, and a gazebo placed to overlook the pond. These elements support a wide range of lifestyles, whether someone enjoys equine activities, gardening, hobby farming, or simply having extra space to create and unwind. Rutherford's long history, including ties to the Davy Crockett era, adds to the sense of place surrounding this home. The mix of usable acreage, water features, historic architecture, and established outdoor amenities is not commonly available in this part of West Tennessee. For buyers looking for room to live more intentionally, spend more time outdoors, or enjoy a slower and more spacious pace of life, this farmhouse offers the chance to experience a style of Tennessee living that continues to draw interest from across the country.
