Property Description
Historic Summertown Estate
A Rare Five-Acre Storybook Estate Steeped in History, Architecture & Natural Beauty
Set amid five picturesque acres of tranquil woodland, this Historic Summertown Estate is an extraordinary property where history, architectural character, and natural beauty converge.
The original residence is among the earliest buildings in Summertown, giving the estate a special place in the area's history. One owner since 1974, this enchanting property offers a rare glimpse into another era while retaining the warmth and charm of a secluded woodland retreat.
The main residence features a distinctive chalet-inspired living room designed by renowned Chattanooga architect David Lyons. This memorable architectural feature lends the home a unique personality, blending rustic elegance with tree-house views of the surrounding forest.
Beyond the main house, the estate unfolds as a charming collection of buildings, including a guest house with attached log cabin, apple house, a large two story log cabin and traditional smokehouse. Each structure contributes to the property's remarkable character and offers possibilities for guest accommodations, family gatherings, creative spaces, or private retreats.
Nestled among mature trees and surrounded by the peaceful beauty of the forest, the estate offers an atmosphere of privacy, tranquility, and timeless appeal.
More than a residence, this large Summertown Estate is a storybook woodland sanctuary offering a rare opportunity to own one of Summertown's distinctive historic properties.
