Waco Farmhouse and Lake is a rare opportunity to own a historic and highly versatile farm in Carroll County, Georgia. Encompassing approximately 50 acres along Kansas Jake Road, this property combines historic character, functional improvements, scenic pastureland, and a beautiful spring-fed lake in a desirable rural setting just minutes from town. The centerpiece of the property is a 3,120 square foot historic home featuring four bedrooms and three bathrooms, along with attached separate living quarters complete with its own kitchen. This additional space is ideal for extended family, guests, or private accommodations while maintaining connection to the main residence. The home reflects preserved craftsmanship and history while also offering an excellent foundation for tasteful updates if desired. A three-bedroom, two-bath mobile home is also located on the property and provides flexible use as a guest home, caretaker's residence, or mother-in-law suite. Additional improvements include a large two-bay detached garage, a historic barn, and a cattle working pen suitable for livestock or agricultural use. The land is well balanced and functional, consisting primarily of open pasture with scattered mature hardwoods that provide shade, privacy, and character throughout the farm. Gentle topography allows for practical use across the property and creates several additional homesite opportunities. One of the standout features of the farm is the spring-fed 3 acre lake, which offers both scenic beauty and recreational enjoyment. Combined with the surrounding pasture and wooded acreage, the lake creates a classic rural setting that is increasingly difficult to find in this area. Conveniently located just 4 miles from Interstate 20, approximately 10 minutes from Bowdon and Carrollton, and less than one hour from downtown Atlanta, Waco Farmhouse and Lake offers an ideal combination of privacy, usability, and accessibility. With its historic residence, multiple dwellings, functional farm improvements, open pastureland, and scenic lake, Waco Farmhouse and Lake is a well-rounded property suited for full-time living, recreation, farming, or long-term ownership in Carroll County.
