**Historic Southern Colonial Residence in Kingston**
This distinguished two-story colonial residence in Kingston stands as a testament to the rich history and architectural significance of the area. Originally a log structure used as a fort during the Civil War, the house has undergone several transformations by notable owners. The house features unique elements such as stairs and mantels sourced from historic buildings, including the Ward House, and molding from the old YMCA building. The outside kitchen's brick walls bring a touch of history, constructed from ballast bricks used on sailing ships from England.
The estate's grounds are adorned with various tree species, some over a century old, adding to the property's charm. Notable details like the repurposed limestone blocks from the old Clinch River Bridge further highlight the integration of history within the home.
Reflecting a blend of architectural styles and historical artifacts, this home stands as a prominent landmark in Kingston, revered for its preservation of the past and unique character.
