Property Description
Just in time for the holidays, this breathtaking Federal-style post-Civil War estate is listed on the National Historic Registry and brimming with timeless charm. Built in 1867, this magnificent 5-bedroom, 2.5 bath residence rests on two beautifully manicured acres, including an adjoining creek-side lot, and offers more than 4,400 square feet of refined living space. From the original on-site kiln-fired bricks to hand-painted feather-finish doors and exquisite craftsmanship, every detail of this home tells a story of artistry and endurance. Inside, you'll find soaring ceilings, richly preserved hardwood floors, and period details at every turn, seamlessly blended with thoughtful modern updates for comfort and convenience. The spacious layout includes elegant gathering areas, a main-level in-law suite, and beautifully restored finishes that make it equally suited for gracious family living or hospitality ventures. Whether you envision hosting holiday celebrations around the fireplaces, creating an Airbnb or Bed & Breakfast, or simply enjoying the prestige of owning a piece of East Tennessee history, this home offers endless possibilities. Imagine guests sipping coffee on the veranda as the creek babbles nearby or celebrating the season beneath vintage chandeliers. It's truly a home made for memories. Perfectly situated just 5 minutes from The Pinnacle, the Tri-Cities' premier shopping and dining destination, and 5 minutes to Bristol Regional Medical Center, this estate combines historic grace with modern accessibility. Schedule your private tour today and experience the legacy, location, and limitless potential of this one-of-a-kind historic treasure.
