About the host

We welcome you to enjoy a visit to our farm, rock on the porch, and take in the country lifestyle.
Why they chose this property
The Benjamin W. Best House was threatened by destruction in 1997 when its owners decided that their tract needed more farmland and that the then-vacant house was superfluous. Following intervention by Preservation North Carolina, Ossie and Mary Betty Kearney purchased the house in 1998 and, because it could not remain on its original site, moved the house that April 7th to its current location ten miles south. In its new location, the house stands less than two miles southeast of the Henry Best I House and approximately three miles west of the Best-Harrison House, a turn-of-the-nineteenth century dwelling constructed for another descendant of Henry Best.
What makes this property unique
The Benjamin W. Best House has completely been renovated to its original status and was listed on the National Registry of Historic Places in February 2006. It is located on a 7th generation working family farm.
