Description of 3138 Richmond Rd, Petersburg - MLS# 3529071
Introducing Moore Homestead, a rare 276-acre historic estate in the Tennessee countryside blending heritage, natural beauty, and exceptional future potential. With nearly 3,500 feet of road frontage, approximately 3,350 feet of creek frontage, more than 100 acres of productive row-crop land, and flexible opportunities for private, agricultural, hospitality, or event use, the property offers remarkable scale and versatility. Built in the 1820s by Captain D. William Moore, the main residence remains a distinguished example of early 19th-century character, featuring original rooms with substantial stone fireplaces and walnut paneling. Ready for thoughtful restoration, the approximately 3,000-square-foot home includes 10-foot ceilings, original floors, gas fireplaces, two new HVAC units, and updated ductwork.
The site also has a private one-bedroom log cabin, built in 2016, featuring an open concept layout with full-length front and rear porches with sweeping views of farmland, rolling hills, and wildlife. It offers excellent potential for guest accommodations, short-term rental use, in-law quarters, event lodging, or on-site management housing.
The land is both functional and scenic, with two barns, including an 1880s barn with a full-size loft and a newer 120-by-125-foot utility barn for equipment, storage, equestrian, or agricultural use. A large accessible creek, three ponds, county water service, and more than 100 acres currently planted in soybeans further support farming, livestock, and recreational opportunities.
Conveniently located about 1 hour and 20 minutes from Nashville and roughly 1 hour and 7 minutes from both Franklin, Tennessee, and Huntsville, Alabama, Moore Homestead offers privacy, provenance, working farmland, water features, and multiple-use potential in one exceptional legacy property.
