THIS GEM IS BACK ON THE MARKET! Properties with this much history, land, and opportunity rarely come to market—don't miss your chance to write the next chapter of Caynor Place. Step back in time and discover the charm, character, and possibilities of this remarkable property. Dating back to approximately 1836, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath farmhouse is nestled on a total of 16 acres across two parcels (approximately 12 acres and 4 acres), offering a rare opportunity for those seeking a private estate, farmette, investment property, or multi-generational retreat. Rich in history and lovingly restored by previous owners over the decades, the home blends timeless character with recent improvements. Since purchasing in 2023, the current owner has invested in numerous updates, including a new HVAC system adding central air conditioning (main floor), refinished main-level hardwood floors, upgraded electrical outlets, updated lighting, a new water pressure tank, and the addition of a washer, dryer, stove, and dishwasher. The property is currently enrolled in farm and forestry land use programs and is zoned RA (Rural Agricultural), creating a variety of future possibilities for the next owner. A detached garage structure (as-is) is located on the second parcel and provides ideal additional flexibility for storage, workshop space, or potential income opportunities or future in-law suite. With open land, mature trees, lots of wildlife and abundant privacy, this property offers plenty of room to expand your vision. There may even be the potential for a future lot creation near the front entrance area, subject to county approval and any required boundary line adjustments. Whether you're dreaming of a country estate, hobby farm, homestead, or investment opportunity, this one-of-a-kind historic property offers the acreage, character, and potential to bring your vision to life.
