Step into a Living Piece of Bristol's Storied Past!
Welcome to this commanding Neoclassical Revival residence, gracefully poised in one of Bristol, Tennessee's oldest and most cherished neighborhoods. Built circa 1901, this grand home exemplifies the symmetry, scale, and elegance that defined the early 20th-century elite. Full-height classical columns, a sweeping wraparound porch, and a stately pedimented gable evoke the dignity and craftsmanship of a bygone era—when every detail was made to endure.
Inside, you'll find soaring ceilings, original millwork, solid wood doors, and a gracious floor plan perfectly suited for both lively entertaining and quiet retreat. Picture yourself enjoying warm evenings on the front porch, golden light dancing through the trees, with the faint hum of downtown Bristol's music drifting through the air.
The land itself holds history. Once the site of the renowned Hotel Fairmount, the home was built after the hotel burned in 1900—leaving behind a remarkable 2.4-acre lot. In a town where large parcels are exceedingly rare, this estate stands apart.
The main home features: Four generously sized bedrooms, four full bathrooms and one half bath multiple fireplaces with original mantels, an elegant upper balcony with balustrade railing, period-correct wood windows and original front entry, mature landscaping offering space and privacy, tucked behind the main house is a handsome brick cottage—originally the carriage house—now transformed into a charming guest home, ideal for extended family, visitors, or potential short-term rental income.
Situated just minutes from State Street, the Birthplace of Country Music Museum, and some of the region's best dining and shopping, this rare property offers more than beauty—it offers legacy. Built for Bristol's civic and cultural leaders, homes of this stature seldom come to market. If you've been waiting for a home with soul, story, and a sense of place—this is your moment.
