John Milton Alexander farmed the 49
acres, and together with his brother-in-law, Francis Beard, ran a
cotton gin, blacksmith shop and sawmill. He planted cotton, and
probably corn and other crops as well. There was a garden plot which
fed the family, and a grape arbor in the yard. He also kept bees, cows,
and broke in unruly horses. There were two tenant houses on the
property as early as the 1870s. One was occupied by Uncle Caleb and
Aunt Hettie, and the other by the Tom Caldwell family |

| Other Information |
8 room house built in 1874. In
addition to the Alexander family and "Grandma," several others lived in
the house at various times. Nancy Fullwood Alexander's young sister,
Laura Elizia Fullwood (1862-1931), came to stay with the family after
her mother's death in 1875 until her marriage to James Thomas Cashion,
a neighbor's cousin. Grandma's half-sister, Aunt Huldah lived in one of
the upstairs rooms for a time. Milton's uncle Moses also stayed with
the family from time to time, but also stayed with other relatives and
neighbors, apparently having no home of his own. 5 T. Alexander Park,
possibly a relative, boarded in the house in 1880, and was probably
employed as a laborer on the farm.It was purchased by W. A. Cashion in
1909, who presumably held it until his death. After his death, the
property was the subject of a lawsuit, the result of which was its
purchase by J. M. Hubbard. Hubbard and his wife sold it in 1933 to
Powell Regans. 9 Mr. Regans farmed the land while he lived there, and
from him it passed to his heirs. The house lot (1.25 acres) is
currently owned by a grandson. |

The first of eight children 2, Ida
Josephine was born in 1873. All of the children were born and reared in
the house on Beatties Ford Road. Of the eight, only one, Grier Caldwell
(1881-1884), died young. The eldest daughter, Ida Josephine (1873-1891)
died at age 18, but the others all had long lives. Nancy Alexander died
in September 1893, just one month after giving birth to the youngest
child, Nancy Fullwood. |

Captivating Colonial Revival
This unique and historical haven is surrounded by magnificent
century-old hardwoods and towering river birch; and exotic perennial
plants, bushes and flowers abound. The grounds will take your breath
away as you commune with nature in the tranquil and private
surroundings. A feast for the senses all year long, you will be calmed
by the floating butterflies in the spring; hear the waterfalls,
croaking frogs and chirping crickets in summer; fall in love with
autumn canvases cascading all around you; and feel the crispness of a
new perspective with the brisk air and occasional beauty of snowscapes
in winter. The Redwine House original structure was built circa 1883
for Dr. J.W. Redwine and family. In 1976, the home was purchased by the
Alexanders who have made this their home for the last 34 years. The
Alexanders named the estate F:8 Acres in a fond reference to Mr.
Alexander’s profession and passion as a well-known architectural
and engineering photographer and photo artist. F:8 refers to a camera
lens aperture. The main house features foyer, 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths,
kitchen, dining room, sitting room/library, garden room, The Well House
Room (family room), 4 covered porches, 8 fireplaces and a covered deck
is situated just steps off of the rear of the home. Much of the home
has Heart of Pine flooring, decorative period details, moldings and
trims as well as solid oak beams. Although the main house retains most
of its original architectural details and high quality craftsmanship,
there is a central theme of a blend of eclectic artistic influence
throughout. Combining tastes of young with old and old with new. The
“Well House Room” is a 2100sf addition designed to
complement the main home and was built in 1988. The room was built
around the original well that has been preserved and the spectacular
floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace which is the focal point surrounded by
mammoth oak beams and architectural details. The Alexanders put a lot
of thought and creativity when planning this room to garner the most
pleasure and functionality while maintaining the integrity and quality
in reflection of the period along with some new twists. The Garden Room
(sunroom) was also created at the time of the addition, offers
picturesque views of waterfalls adjacent to koi pond deck and covered
Arbor. The Arbor is roughly 770sf and is also adorned with a
breathtaking outdoor stone fireplace. There are two utility
sheds/workshops and an oversized detached garage with covered porch and
an upstairs bonus room which would make a nice guest house. There is
even a 6000sf heated log structure equipped with full kitchen and 1
½ baths. The building has an attached lean-to on the right side
running the length of the building large enough to accommodate six
vehicles. A second attached lean-to runs across the rear of the
building. Amenities include 200sf Greenhouse, ½ court concrete
basketball court, full court sand volleyball court, and walking and
garden trails. The estate has accommodated a number of very large
banquets, receptions and events over the years hosting gatherings for
as many as 200 guests. It is perfect for a new owner to make it their
own or a developer to realized the uniqueness and uncover a new found
potential. The Redwine House at F:8 Acres is a charming jewel, a
nostalgic place whispering you home. Come fall in love...and stay!
