dgewood Plantation aka Baughman House was built in 1902 by Jefferson Davis Baughman. It is a Queen Anne Victorian-style home with a bell tower and/or turrent nestled on eight-plus acres among many beautiful towering trees. Its significant period was 1900-1924 and it is registered with the National Register of Historic Places. The home is located one mile west of Farmerville, Louisiana on Hwy. 2. The home originally had 13 rooms with high ceilings and hardwood floors, with beautiful crown molding detail.

Jefferson Davis "J. D" Baughman and his wife Nancy had 4 daughters. Ms. Faye was the oldest daughter who was the last one to reside in the beautiful home and passed away in the late '70s. After her passing the home begin to deteriorate little by little. After years of the home being unkempt, the structure worsened. The beautiful old home disappeared into the woods, where when passing by, all you could see was the tip of the rooftop. When Pat and Kay Carroll purchased the home in 2010 it was almost hopeless, but thanks to the skills and history of Pat's background he and Kay started putting it back together again.

What you see now is breathtaking! Pat and Kay have restored this landmark. The transformation is stunning. Daily, passersby pull through to take a picture or to stop by to visit. Sometimes we even hear stories from others about their visit to this home when they were children.

Pat and Kay's dream was to build a bed and breakfast that would offer that Southern hospitality while bringing this big old home back to its grandeur. The Carroll's opened the bed and breakfast in February of 2012. Its new features have been created at great lengths yet the original integrity of the home has been maintained.

Charlie & Linda Ellison purchased Edgewood in 2021. After 45 years of pastoring and starting churches, Charlie Ellison retired as a pastor in 2021. He now focuses on ministering to the unchurched as he seeks to help others enjoy the abundant life that Jesus desires all people to have. Linda is his ministry partner in life. Charlie & Linda have enjoyed over 52 years as husband and wife. They have 2 children, 5 grandchildren, and 3 great grandchildren. Charlie was born in Memphis, Tennessee, and Linda was born in Piggott, Arkansas. They are excited to live in Union Parish. They invite you to come by and get to know them and see their new and exciting home.
