Own a treasured piece of local history! This home is teeming with stories to tell about years past. Featured in the book Out to Greenville and Beyond by Raymond Beecher, this home is located on what was once 400 acres owned by the Powell family beginning in the late 1700s. Historic records show that it was deeded to Foster Powell in 1822, and is located at the Westerly end of the Honey Hollow gristmill dam built by Edward Powell. With property on both sides of the street, surrounded by ancient forests and water, the spillway is still intact across the street. (the seller has a bridge in the garage that can be reinstalled) The long-time current owners have made careful renovations over the years in order to maintain the historic charm. Wide plank flooring, built-ins, post and beam construction, wooded land, a flowing creek and pond, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths plus an office space. Ample parking in the circular driveway. It is now time for someone new to take on the stewardship role of this local gem!
