Welcome to 79 Clay Jones Road, Taft, Tennessee, a truly remarkable country estate set on 70 picturesque acres in the rolling hills of Southern Middle Tennessee. Designed around a beautifully preserved 1820s-style log cabin that now serves as the kitchen, this one-of-a-kind home seamlessly blends historic character with modern comfort. Inside, you'll find four spacious bedrooms and three full bathrooms, highlighted by custom hardwood floors and soaring vaulted ceilings. Cozy up by either of the two gas fireplaces—situated in the expansive living room and the master suite. A wood furnace offers efficient, rustic charm and comfort throughout the home.
The kitchen, built within the original cabin, is rich with period detail, featuring exposed beams and natural wood textures. The great room flows effortlessly from the kitchen, creating a central space for living and entertaining that is both functional and full of character. The master suite includes a luxurious bath, walk-in closets, and direct views of rolling meadows.
Step outside, and you’ll discover a property that feels like your own private nature preserve. The land is fully fenced and cross-fenced, ideal for horses or livestock, and includes a pond and a beautiful creek that runs the entire length of the property, passing just behind the home for an especially tranquil setting. Historic charm continues with a barn, pole barn, and a well-equipped shop, offering plenty of space for work, storage, or creative endeavors.
Whether you're dreaming of a quiet retreat, a working farm, or a legacy homestead, this unique property offers it all. Just a short drive from local amenities but surrounded by nature, this premier farm is where timeless craftsmanship meets Tennessee tranquility. This is more than a home—it’s the Country Lifestyle at its finest! Call today to schedule a private tour. Video tour linked below.
