Let’s take a look inside the Waverly, TN home!

But first, the outside! I am a sucker for a ranch.

Step right inside and you are immediately greated with a super cool raised organ area!

I would buy this place furnished because it’s perfect.

Love draperies and carpeting and built in seating.

Here’s the dining area!

Another angle of the dining area!

Gorgeous living room. This couch and the built-ins are insane!!

Here is maybe my favorite room in the house – the kitchen.

I like the idea of carpet in the kitchen, it’s like a challenge to keep your cooking clean.

More kitchens should have desk areas too!

Here’s another angle of the galley kitchen. Formica called and they LOVE it!


I love it when a listing shows the laundry room. Arguably the most important room in a home.

I don’t know what this room is but there is so much natural light. Would love to sit here and read a book, or maybe a magazine.

Here’s one of the bedrooms.

A bathroom. This seems updated.

An office with more amazing built-ins! Think of the crafting you could do here?

Another bedroom!

Another area with a cute built-in love seat!

The basement green is a surprise I did not expect!

There’s another bed down here!

Really cool and covered outdoor space!

As promised, here’s the articles from Better Homes & Gardens that show how it was in it’s heyday.

Finally the gunite pool with a vintage diving board.
