AUTHENTIC OLD FARM HOUSE & GUEST COTTAGE ON 3 ACRES IN PRIME TALLAHASSEE LOCATION. Combined 7 BR, 3 baths, 2876 s.f. in two homes. The old homestead property on canopied N. Meridian Road abuts two parks (Maclay State Park and Forest Meadows Recreation Complex) both with miles of trails. It also abuts the exclusive Rosehill Subdivision. Yet, you have NO HOA or deed restrictions on the 3-acre estate. The property was an old family compound that, until recently, had four residences (the farm house and 3 mobile homes). The current owners removed two of the older mobile homes to make the property easier to finance and insure. The third doublewide mobile home is in good condition and still there. It is used as a spacious and pleasant 3 BR, 2 bath guest cottage or B&B rental. The owners have been assured that they retain the rights to add two more residences to replace the ones they removed. The charming, well-maintained old 4-bedroom, 1 bath farmhouse (1916 s.f.) has changed little since it was built in 1925, except for some electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and simple bathroom upgrades. If your grandmother grew up in an old farmhouse, this is what it may have looked like. Clothes were kept in armoires, not closets. Everyone shared the same bathroom. The simple, spacious eat-in kitchen was the family gathering point. The floors, and most of the walls and ceilings were made of wood planks—in this case, probably cut from the farm’s sawmill. This authentic century-old house still has most of its original windows and doors. The grounds of the homestead abound in fruit trees, flowing trees and shrubs, and garden spots, highlighted by a rustic old outbuilding at the property’s entrance. Still, there’s plenty of room to add a new residence without detracting from the country estate appeal of this unique, one-of-a kind property.
