Sherie’s fifth great grandfather, William Ayscue, fought in Revolutionary War. After the war in 1779, he bought a one square mile in Vance County by Land Grant from the state of North Carolina. The farm has remained in the Ayscue family since that time. Sherie’s father (Harold), her grandfather (Richard), and her great grandfather (Gordon Foster) were all born and raised on the farm which grew tobacco and soybeans.
Our New Farmhouse...Will and Sherie built a new farmhouse on the family Ayscue Williams Farm in 2020. It is a modern farmhouse with open floor plan. It has 3,400 square foot livable space, large front porch and rear deck overlooking a stand of yellow pines and 13 acres planted in soybeans. All this was during the COVID 19 pandemic.
We used the original “front door and door handle hardware” from her grandfather’s home that he built in 1955. (One can only imagine the history of the people that came in and out of this door for over 65 years). Currently this door is the door that leads into our pantry. We also saved the lumber from the smoke house. We used the smoke house reclaimed lumber to build the beams in the ceiling on the front porch in our farmhouse.
Family comes first for us. We have strong feelings for past families’ homes and land upon which we build new homes. When we renovate an existing home, our goal is to preserve memories and make the property a home that we would enjoy and proud to live in ourselves.
