π Diana, Tennessee | Circa 1914β1916
π‘ 5 Bedrooms | 3 Bathrooms | 3.3 Acres
π΄ Horse-Ready with Barn, Stalls, and Pasture
Nestled in the quiet countryside of Giles County, Tennessee, this lovingly restored farmhouse tells a story that spans generations. Built between 1914 and 1916, and owned by the same family since 1989, this home is more than wood and nails β itβs a testament to craftsmanship, patience, and the kind of care that only comes with time.
When the current owners purchased the home over 35 years ago, it had just one bathroom, no kitchen cabinets, and only a single outlet and light fixture per room. The walls were covered in paneling, hiding century-old wallpaper on cloth netting, secured by hundreds of tiny tacks. Rather than cover it up, they chose to uncover its history β carefully removing each layer by hand to reveal the soul of the home beneath.
Since then, theyβve gently brought this home into the modern era while preserving its original charm. Updates include:
-
Complete rewiring of the home
-
Installation of two HVAC systems (replaced in 2019/2020)
-
Sunroom addition with beautiful views of the pasture
-
Addition of a second bathroom and laundry room
-
Converted upstairs bedroom into a charming third full bath
-
New roof (2020), composite windows (2022), and foam-backed siding (2023) for energy efficiency
-
2-car, 2-story garage with water & sewer β originally designed for a bakery upstairs
-
Fenced and cross-fenced 3.3-acre property with a 2-stall barn, tack room, and room to roam
-
Even a custom-built tree fort added in 2016 for the grandchildren
The result is a home that feels timeless β one foot firmly planted in history, the other walking confidently into the future.
Whether youβre dreaming of a hobby farm, a country retreat, or a historic home to pass down for generations, this one-of-a-kind property in Diana is ready for its next chapter.
