Property Description
The 960 sq ft farmhouse, built in 1900, is as sturdy now as it was when it was built. The home has been kept in immaculate condition, both inside and out, and the family can still be found eating breakfast looking out of the huge windows of the kitchen overlooking their 21 acre pasture.
In the summers, the gardens out back produced more than enough produce to feed their family and neighbors. The same goes for pastures and its ability to always produce great hay for livestock. The family believes it is due to Brushy Creek, which winds over 2500 foot down the edge of the pasture and goes back through the pines in the back of the property. The ''Brushy Creek Beach'' which is located behind the shed has always been a welcomed spot during those hot Tennessee summer days, and cooling off in the cold mountain creek has always been a favorite way to spend time together.
The value of this property is in it's potential. The gentle slope of the pasture could provide the layout for the family homestead, with so many potential sites for additional homes and barns. But the real opportunity in this property exists on what is called Overlook Point. A section of pine timber is located overlooking the pasture, and witheasy road access, someone with vision could only imagine the cabin sites and back porch views of Cherokee National Forest this could provide.

Miscellaneous When looking for a tract of land back in the late 1960's, the Adams family wanted something they could raise a family on, live a simple life, and provide all of life's essentials, food, water, and never leave the farm. They settled on this 72 +- Acre Farm, just Northwest of Ducktown, Tennessee, just about 1.5 miles off of Highway 64, and about the same distance from the Ocoee River and Cherokee National Forest. The reason the Adams chose this farm over all others in Polk County was simple, it checked off everything they were hoping for in land. And those simple reasons are still just as important today as it was then. The 960 sq ft farmhouse, built in 1900, is as sturdy now as it was when it was built. The home has been kept in immaculate condition, both inside and out, and the family can still be found eating breakfast looking out of the huge windows of the kitchen overlooking their 21 acre pasture. In the summers, the gardens out back produced more than enough produce to feed their family and neighbors. The same goes for pastures and its ability to always produce great hay for livestock. The family believes it is due to Brushy Creek, which winds over 2500 foot down the edge of the pasture and goes back through the pines in the back of the property.
