129/131 Elizabeth Street Discover timeless elegance on Athens' historic Prospect Hill, where two residences grace 7.8 acres. The first home, a cozy 1955 cottage, offers 1, 248 sq. ft. with three bedrooms, one bath, and a large garage—ideal for guest space or multi-generational living. The highlight, however, is the grand mansion built in the 1830s, a 3, 900 sq. ft. masterpiece crafted by renowned builder Samuel Cleage. Entering this historic home, you're welcomed by a sweeping staircase and elegant 12-over-12 sash windows that flood the rooms with natural light. The home's beautifully restored plaster walls, hand-carved mantels, and meticulously replicated original wood doors reflect its rich history. Stunning balcony porches with sidelights and transoms offer serene views of lush grounds and historic magnolias. The heart of the mansion is its chef's dream kitchen, blending historical charm with modern luxury. Custom cabinetry, beautiful appliances, and an open layout make it perfect for both cooking and entertaining. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and living spaces, each boasting exquisite architectural details. This estate holds deep ties to East Tennessee history. During the Civil War, General Sherman briefly used the property, and throughout its history, the home has hosted notable figures, adding layers to its storied past. Now beautifully preserved. With its grand spaces and beautiful grounds, this property also offers endless possibilities. From a private residence to a unique event space, the historic charm and elegance make it ideal for hosting weddings, gatherings, or retreats. This is a rare opportunity to own a versatile piece of local heritage where timeless architecture meets modern comfort and potential.
