Historic Charm on Nearly 1.78 + or - Acres in the Heart of Jonesborough
Tucked behind mature trees on S. Cherokee Street in Tennessee's oldest town, this 1900 farmhouse offers a rare combination of historic character and generous acreage--all just a mile from Jonesborough Elementary and minutes from the shops and cafes of Historic Downtown Jonesborough.
Step onto the wraparound front porch, framed by original iron railings and towering shade trees, and through the front door into a home full of early-1900s detail: wide-plank hardwood floors, tall ceilings, and built-in shelving that lines several rooms. The front den offers a flexible welcoming space, while the living room--anchored by a classic fireplace--flows into a quiet study tucked just off to the side, perfect for a home office or reading room. Built-in bookshelves throughout add both storage and old-world charm.
The kitchen retains its warm, homey layout with ample cabinetry and a bright window over the sink looking out over the back porch and grounds. Four bedrooms and two full bathrooms--one with a marble-topped double vanity, the other with classic blue and navy tile--round out the living space, along with a laundry area and a partial unfinished basement offering excellent storage or workshop potential.
Outside, the property truly sets itself apart: a covered back porch overlooks the sprawling, tree-shaded lot, and a 20x50 pole barn with workshop space offers room for projects, storage, hobbies, or animals. With 1.8 acres, a paved road frontage, and public water, sewer, and electric, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Jonesborough's history with room to spread out.
