Nestled in the heart of the Tennessee Valley, this extraordinary 3.17-acre property in Delano presents a rare convergence of 19th-century history and high-yield commercial opportunity. At the center of the estate stands an exceptionally preserved, two-story historic log home dating back to the early 1800s. Spanning 2,400 square feet, this architectural masterpiece features two spacious bedrooms, three and 1/2 full baths, a complete kitchen, and a cozy gas fireplace.

Beyond the historic dwelling lies a purpose-built commercial infrastructure primed for immediate operation. The property is fully equipped with dedicated production facilities, including a 1,200-square-foot fermentation room and a 600-square-foot bottling room, complete with ample bottle storage and private office spaces. Whether you envision a craft brewery, a regional cidery, or a bespoke winery, the layout supports efficient, high-quality production. Complementing the production capabilities is a massive 5,280-square-foot metal pavilion designed for large-scale entertainment.

This multi-use property is more than a tract of land; it is a gateway to an intentional lifestyle and a thriving commercial market.
