Find tranquility spending a few days in Ransom’s
Woods, a private former twenty-acre farm surrounded by woods. Located in the
rolling foothills of Western North Carolina, it is situated near the small town
of Hudson (28638), near Lenoir (el. 1300 feet), some thirty five minutes from
either Hickory or Blowing Rock (el.3300 feet). Ransom’s Woods is some two
miles from a shopping center on four lane NC Highway 321 North with five
restaurants (including Japanese), a grocery store, two pharmacies, urgent care
center, etc.
Ransom's Woods consists of twenty acres of an old farm
that now has two houses on it, both of which are now available to be rented out
completely furnished. The first is our vacation cottage, the
Myers House, which we rent out on a daily basis, and the second is the Austin
House, an old rustic farmhouse, built in 1887, which we now rent out by the
week or by the month. Two rental options are now available.
Sleep in the Myers house, a cozy, romantic, fully
furnished two bedroom modernized rustic 1930ish country cottage with solid
wooden walls and ceilings, a new deck and a new exterior of rough lumber. Find
peace watching the sun set beyond the pasture, walking on trails in the woods,
sitting on the dam of a private one-acre lake in a ravine in the woods where
deer and Canada geese visit occasionally.
The house is small, but large
enough to sleep four people comfortably in its two bedrooms, plus one or two on
the hide-a-bed. It is suitable for a family on vacation using it as a base for
a visit to the Grandfather Mountain and Boone area, the fifth most visited
tourist spot in the nation, or to Hiddenite, NC (20 miles) to pan for gems, or
to other Western North Carolina tourist sites. It would also be suitable for a
honeymoon or celebration of some anniversary or for two couples who wish to
spend some private time together. It might also be used for a family reunion or
a place to spend time with family or friends in this area, and even for an
individual who needs to have great privacy for writing or whatever
reason.

Sleep in the Austin house, an old rustic farm house,
built in 1887, one of the very oldest houses in Southern Caldwell County, that
we have mainly restored and modernized to some extent, adding central heat and
air, a new second bathroom (with washer/dryer) and modernizing its kitchen with
dishwasher, microwave, stove, etc. It can sleep four to six people downstairs,
and some four more if its upstairs is also rented. We have sanded off 124 years
of paint from its living and dining room's walls in order to reveal the beauty
of their heart pine solid wood. Its living room, dining room and main
downstairs bedroom were built with large chimneys in them, but we have sealed
them off and are now heating them with sectional electric heater for rental
purposes. It is a pleasant experience to sit on its cement front porch and view
the extensive ex-pastures in front of it where wild turkey and deer sometimes
pass by.
The house with 18.6 acres including a one-acre lake on a large
(expandable) dam in a ravine in its woods is now For Sale. Go to
