A Trip to Cherobrook

I had the pleasure of making a trip out of the city last week to visit Jerry and Becky Hughes' home at 1069 Jep Wheeler in Woodstock, GA. Their home sits on 13.5 acres with an abundance of loving pets! Becky built the home in 1974 and has gradually added to it.


Becky and Jerry have ducks, chickens, doves, donkeys, llamas, goats, a rabbit, and 5 dogs!! They do all the upkeep themselves, and Jerry even built the barns for the animals. The barns have intricate detail and finishings with stained glass and wonderful interior decorating.  Below is the view from the home.


 
 Here is the dove cage that Jerry built. They even have a small fountain to clean themselves!

Here is one of her fan tail doves!


Here are a few photos of the other animals around the farm and check out the tennis court!



Now lets go inside!



The entire house has a wonderful warm, rustic feel that is decorated to perfection.


Wonderful light fills the entire home.


Look how beautiful the beamed ceilings are, the living room leads us to a peaceful porch where Becky and Jerry enjoy entertaining! I had a great taste of their knack for entertaining. Jerry cooked turkey burgers and wonderful homemade fries for Blayne Beacham and I!


Next is the study which Becky has filled with fabulous antiques!


Next we will head upstairs...



See the little door to the right of the bed...its a secret door!! It opens to Jerry's "man room" which has a door that leads to the carriage house! How awesome is that?!


Here is the carriage house that was added on later! 




A small kitchenette..



Look how beautiful the view is out of the bathroom!



Can you believe you can have all of this for under a million dollars and only 45 minutes from the heart of Atlanta!?
