Historic farmhouse out in the country on 4.4 peaceful acres. Uniquely beautiful 3 bed, 2 bath home characterized by the exposed timber and chinked walls of the homesite's original log cabin structure (built around the 1790's). The recreated corner staircase from the original log cabin leads up to a large attic bedroom with vaulted beadboard ceilings, exposed beams, and rustic wide-plank wood floors. Living room features a stone accent wall with brick fireplace and mantel and a wood stove from Vermont Castings. Early 20th century additions to the log cabin feature original beadboard walls and high ceilings accompanied by either heart pine or oak floors in every room but the kitchen and bathrooms. Large front bedroom centered around the fireplace and mantel with separate access to the front porch. Open dining room with fireplace featuring a massive corner bookcase and cabinet storage. Full bathroom addition with a standup glass shower, stained glass windows, and built-in linen shelving. Updated laundry/utility room with washer/dryer and loads of storage. Beautiful kitchen with a brick fireplace, decorative tile floors and countertops, antique cabinets, and a vintage stove/oven. Easy kitchen access to the screened-in side porch, covered patio, and side driveway. Large back bedroom/owner's suite off kitchen features a sizable cedar closet and a full bathroom with clawfoot tub, pedestal sink, and wood siding accent wall. Metal roof, drilled well, plumbing and electrical updates. 3 chimneys with 4 fireplaces total. Fenced-in pastureland, waiting to be tamed, with plenty of cleared acreage for sowing and growing vegetables. Three old barns, chicken coop, outdoor hydrants, and a backyard storage building. Main barn is wired for power, has a metal roof, and offers loads of sheltered space for a designated workshop or housing any of the farm's necessities. Property is adorned with mature walnut, pecan, and fruit trees and has been shaped and landscaped through the generations with stacked rock walls and flowerbeds that still bring annual pops of color. 45 Matthews Sims Road is a rare opportunity to make your own mark on a historic property that has served many households for well over two centuries. **Agents - Please see remarks**
