Welcome home to this historic and somewhat famous home in the country. The current owners refer to this home as their Old Kentucky Home. The original home dates back to the late 1800s, and its rich history includes what is believed to be the original post office for Rivals area. This home was recently featured in the Spencer County newspaper, was on the 2017 Holiday House Tour and is part of a yet-to-be-released movie that was filmed in 2016. This home features lots of historic charm with a massive two-sided stone fireplace--complete with original hand-chiseled marks--between the kitchen and huge dining room. A fireplace insert was installed in 2016. Two additional stone chimneys, one in the living room and one in the master bedroom, are non-functional. This home has three bedrooms, but all the rooms in this house are HUGE! The living room spans a massive 20ft. x 29 ft., while the 17 ft. x 17 ft. dining room can accommodate large dinner parties. If you are looking for country charm with land for some animals, you have found it! This property actually is waterfront property, as the full width of the property continues across the road to Brashears Creek. You can launch your kayaks or fish just steps from your front porch. On the property you also have a small barn and a two-car carport attached to the workshop/original post office. The workshop needs some love to bring it back to its glory, but it could be a great space for a "man-cave" or "she-shack." This property is in a flood zone, and the flood insurance is approximately $1,600/year and assumable by the new homeowners.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
