Property Description

Welcome to a timeless treasure steeped in East Tennessee history: a captivating Federal-style home that effortlessly blends historic charm with modern luxury. Meticulously preserved, this exquisite two-story residence spans 4,431 square feet and boasts four-brick-thick walls made from bricks fired on-site, offering a rare opportunity for the discerning buyer to own a piece of authentic history.

With five spacious bedrooms and 2.5 baths, the home is perfect for a range of lifestyles, whether as a private residence or an elegant bed-and-breakfast. Original fireplaces, adorned with hand-marbleized mantles, and majestic four-paneled doors—some four feet wide and featuring the original feather-painted finish—add to the home's sense of grandeur and artistry. Soaring ceilings throughout create a bright and airy atmosphere that complements its timeless sophistication.

The heart of the home is a cozy, inviting kitchen—an ideal gathering spot for hosting or relaxation. A main-level guest bedroom or in-law suite adds flexibility and convenience.
