## Description

### Agent Description
Unbelievable, historic farm in Sparta, Tennessee. Known as the County House Farm, the main home was constructed of the finest materials available in 1831. With a storied history, this farm dates back to the War of 1812 and the Civil War. There are over 250 acres of beautiful Tennessee farmland that offers approximately 2.5 miles of Calfkiller River frontage, mountain views from every angle, 3 ponds, 11 springs, 8 caves, and lots of wildlife to enjoy. The main home currently has all the history uncovered and ready for you to make it your own. The 3 bedroom 2 bath guest house is newly renovated and offers 1344 sq ft., large kitchen, and open living area. The property that is used for a cattle farm has good fencing, a large barn, and several other buildings. From a spectacular venue or simply being able to live off of and farm your own land, the possibilities are endless!! Own a truly remarkable property and historic treasure today!
