Step back in time and embrace the High Country's rich history in this charming riverfront farmhouse, noted by the Dept of Interior as Watauga county's oldest house, dating back to the late 1700s. Built by Scottish settlers who owned a general store and schoolhouse, standing through the Civil War times and Sherman's March, known for its distillery of brandy and whiskey, and inhabited by lawmen and local politicians, the walls of this house speak of a simpler time when family, community, and the love of the outdoors still ring true to the one who can relax to listen. The picturesque grounds also include patios/porches/firepit for entertaining. With hardwoods in most of the living space and bedrooms, a fireplace in the formal living room, one of the dining rooms, and a wood stove in the original kitchen fireplace, the Baird House stands solidly built with cozy spaces to unwind and converse with friends. The main house comes with 4 bedrooms (one is a double room), each with their own bath and fireplace, and the Carriage house has been tastefully redone with 3 more suites. Come and see!
