Founded in 1926 & still growing.

Our Vision

Vision Properties 1926 was named after a simple concept: to be a property where others dreams & visions come to life. A space to connect, create & be of service to others.

The Properties

Future Development

This is the future development proposed for Vision Properties 1926. It’s all our ideas that could shift and change as the vision is brought to life. The plan includes already established ‘The Farmhouse’ and ‘The Barn Office’, plus future buildings known as ‘The Shed’ and ‘The Greenhouse’. We’ve even thrown around ideas for a lot called ‘The Gold Lot,’ which would be a place for food trucks to come and provide for a space for the community to gather. A little fun fact we bet you didn’t know is that gold was found on the property in the 1970s that was buried during the Great Depression, hence we would decided to name it, ‘The Gold Lot’.

March 28th, 2022, I purchased the 1926 farmhouse. I owned the commercial property next door, and my vision at the time was that having the land would allow for more development for other entrepreneurs creating offices. I grew up in Forysth County with two entrepreneurial parents, and I have been in the building and developing space for over a decade. My original plan was to knock the farmhouse down because it was too much work to restore. Walking the property, I fell in love with the history and the entire vibe of the home. Peeling back the carpet, I found original hardwood floors, and it led me down a new vision of restoring the 1926 Farmhouse and shifting that original dream. Circumstances and other people have all led to what the vision is today.

Acquiring this property was part of God’s and the Universe’s plan for my life. I plan to restore a piece of history in a county I love and also create new modern spaces to allow others to thrive. With attention to detail and a love of design, we plan to make these visions a reality. My family and I live locally on the lake, and I am so grateful to have a small part in what it will become.

Historical Facts About the Farmhouse

  • Solid Oak Hardwoods

    When the home was acquired, it was covered in carpet. We had no idea, but beneath that carpet were solid oak hardwood floors that were being preserved and waiting for us to give them new life again.

  • Stacked Stone Foundation

    Let us repeat that…stacked stone foundation with no mortar. That was (and is!) the foundation. We have added additional foundations but we love showing and talking about the original foundation that has withstood 100 years.

  • Original Fireplaces

    One of our favorite pieces of history on the property are the original fireplaces in the front room and even in the kitchen. The charm that these bring to the house is irreplaceable and makes the home so cozy!

  • Going Upstairs

    If you walked upstairs, you would be able to see the building codes and structures that were used in the early 1900s. It is to code, grandfathered in, but it is almost as if you are climbing a ladder to a time warp of memories.
