About This Home

Nestled in the heart of Warren County, NC and Lake Country, Five Forks Farm is a one-of-a-kind estate that seamlessly blends history, privacy, and modern luxury. Known affectionately by locals for the wonderful bluegrass concerts the owners would arrange, this extraordinary property spans a breathtaking multi-acre landscape with lush pastures, mature oak groves, and meticulously preserved historic structures. Whether you dream of a working farm, equestrian retreat, or private sanctuary, Five Forks Farm offers endless possibilities.

The land boasts a stunning oak grove, a 2+ acre fenced pasture for livestock, and an additional well for gardening. Several historic structures—including a log tobacco curing shed, ax-hewn corn cribs, storage barn, and 1700-1800's era cook & wash house —add unparalleled character. The cookhouse has been thoughtfully renovated into a charming cottage, featuring one bedroom, a full bath, a cozy living room/kitchenette area, and an upstairs loft sleeping space. Adding to its charm, the cottage also includes a private outdoor shower, offering a unique and refreshing way to connect with nature. Whether used for guests, rental income, or a personal retreat, this cottage is a true gem.

For those needing workspace or storage, the impressive 40' x 36' barn with a poured slab offers versatility for a workshop, horse stables, or equipment storage. Designed to complement the main home, it features cement siding, a standing seam metal roof, a covered deck, a heated/cooled room, a workshop, and loft space. A fenced-in area for goats extends from the barn, and a custom-designed, fully functional chicken coop is currently in operation.

One of the standout features of this estate is the extensive paver patio area, which surrounds a stunning in-ground saltwater swimming pool. Perfect for entertaining or unwinding, this outdoor oasis is designed for relaxation year-round, enhanced by garden areas with various planted treasures.

The home itself is a masterpiece of craftsmanship and thoughtful design. Expansive porches—including a 40' x 10' main front porch, two private bedroom porches, and a spacious 750 SF rear porch—offer perfect spots to take in the peaceful surroundings.

Inside, warmth and charm abound with 6'' pine wood floors finished in English Chestnut, soaring ceilings (up to 10.5'), and farmhouse-style trim throughout. The 54 low-E glass windows flood the space with natural light, while custom features include a site-built fireplace mantel, stunning staircase, and built-in display shelves.

The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring stainless steel appliances, a gas stove, custom cabinetry with soft-close drawers, a farmhouse sink, leathered granite countertops, and a stunning stained wood beadboard ceiling. A vintage-inspired half bath, laundry room with dual electric panels, and pre-wiring for security cameras add modern convenience.

Retreat to one of two luxurious packhouse style master bedroom quarters, each offering exposed beams, private porches, and spacious walk-in closets. The master bathrooms feature exquisite details, including custom walk-in showers with subway and mosaic tile, freestanding vanities, and decorative lighting. Both suites include cast iron pedestal soaking tubs! Upstairs, one additional bedroom and one flex room share a beautifully designed Jack & Jill bath with a clawfoot-style tub, separate vanities, and vintage-inspired fixtures.

Modern efficiency meets timeless appeal with underground power, multiple heat pumps, 2 Rinnai hot water heaters, recessed lighting, and wiring for satellite service. The home's structural enhancements allow for future expansion, including a foundation-ready rear porch area for a potential guest suite or game room.

With its blend of history, privacy, and modern convenience, Five Forks Farm is an opportunity like no other. Schedule a showing today and experience its unmatched charm firsthand!
