About the host
Hosted by Kristen
My husband and I have lived in this area since 2006 and we have 5 kids. I love having guests that appreciate and enjoy our places because we worked really hard to completely renovate and design these spaces.
Why they chose this property
We love this area because of it being out in the country where it’s calm and quiet. Also, we like this area because of the local history. Just across the road was where the train used to stop for people to come to Goode and go to the store and post office.
What makes this property unique
The incredible tree carving of a train in the front yard is amazing to see. Inside, as many original components to the house were preserved as possible. This includes the beams in the ceilings, the wood plank walls, and the bricks that line the front sidewalk.
