OWN A PART OF GREENE COUNTY HISTORY! The Henry T. Rainey Farm is a historic property located just east of Carrollton. The main red brick farmhouse, known as Walnut Hall, was built in 1868-70 and features Greek Revival and Italianate influences. The spreading, 3-story brick home with imposing columns and original, ornate woodwork is situated on 12.24 acres. The property boasts plenty of privacy, space for gardening or hobby farming, and more. Approx. 30 apple, 2 pear, 10 apricot, and 10 peach trees! Mechanical updates (200 amp electric, modern plumbing, insulation) to the main home were made in the late 1990s by the current owner who maintained the original character throughout the home. Also featured on the property: 36'x82' dairy barn, 1000sqft guest home (2 bed, 1 bath, central air, forced heat furnace), utility barn, and chicken coup. If an alluring property that defies the cookie-cutter style of modern architecture is what you seek, this one's for you!
