Property Description
ONE PROPERTY. MULTIPLE POSSIBILITIES. Historic residence, event venue, equestrian operation potential, guest accommodations, rental opportunities, the versatility of this estate is what sets it apart. At its heart is The Denton, a stately Colonial Revival residence distinguished by its four column facade and Juliet balcony. Inside, the home's character continues with original oak hardwood floors, custom woodwork, full length wood framed windows, formal sitting and dining rooms, and a richly paneled room offering an intimate setting for entertaining or relaxing. The spacious kitchen provides room for gatherings, while preserved sections of original wood planks offer a glimpse into the home's history. The primary suite features a distinctive hammered copper soaking tub. The main residence includes 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths and 2 half baths. Beyond the main house, the property expands into something much more. Two separate two bedroom cottages provide additional accommodations with potential for guest or rental use. A separate office building with an upstairs apartment adds another flexible space for business operations, lodging, or rental use. A SETTING WITH A HISTORY OF CELEBRATION. The Denton has served as the setting for weddings and special events, utilizing the estate's distinctive architecture and expansive grounds to create a memorable backdrop for gatherings. The main residence, cottages, lake, and surrounding property offer multiple spaces that could complement an event or hospitality concept. For a buyer exploring the property's business potential, its history of hosting weddings provides another dimension to an already versatile estate. For equestrian use, the estate includes a 24-stall barn, 10-stall barn/breeding facility, oval training track, and additional training areas formerly used in a Tennessee Walking Horse operation. Great potential for Equine-Assisted Services Center. A 7 acre stocked lake creates a scenic centerpiece for the property, while a workshop, implement sheds, and extensive equipment storage support the property's agricultural, equestrian, or operational uses. Whether considered as a historic private estate, equestrian facility, event or wedding venue, hospitality concept, or income-producing property, The Denton offers an uncommon collection of residential and operational improvements in one setting. Explore the property not only for what it has been, but for what its next chapter could be. Commercial, event, rental, and other uses are subject to applicable zoning, permitting, licensing, and governmental approval. Buyer to verify intended use.
