Property Description
Perched along the vibrant arteries of a highly traveled state highway and picturesque lake corridor, The Wright House emerges not just as a historical gem but as a beacon of opportunity in Georgia's unfolding narrative. Some believe the home to have been built in 1792. This architectural masterpiece began its life as a quaint dogtrot, evolving through the centuries and once becoming a two-story haven of hospitality as a stagecoach inn before 1840. The legacy of The Wright House has been tenderly preserved by past generations. This enduring residence is one of the rare jewels of 18th-century architecture in Georgia, a testament to the resilience and beauty of historical craftsmanship.Unique foundation supports and 18'' wall boards are only two of the outstanding architectural features. The history and structure of the still standing out building are even more fascinating. Now, as The Wright House is poised for a new chapter, it is offered for sale with a historical preservation easement, ensuring its legacy is honored while opening the doors to innovative future use. Its strategic location along a bustling state highway and lake corridor marks it as an ideal setting for a thriving business venture. Imagine a boutique bed and breakfast, a distinguished event venue, or an exclusive cultural center, each benefiting from the estate's visibility and accessibility. The significance of its location is further amplified by Lincoln County's recent accolade as the fastest-growing county in the Central Savannah River Area (CSRA). This growth, coupled with the tranquil beauty of Lincoln County and its proximity to Augusta's vibrant business center-including Fort Eisenhower and the Medical District-positions The Wright House as a prime location that offers the serenity of the countryside with the convenience of urban amenities. Once the site of an historical battle reenactment, this estate spreads across over 9 acres of land. The grounds invite endless possibilities for both preservation and modern entrepreneurship. The Wright House is not merely a place to live; it's a sanctuary for innovation, a canvas for creativity, and a cornerstone for community development. This is an invitation to weave your vision into the rich tapestry of The Wright House's history, to transform this historic estate into a beacon of success and a pillar of the community. Embrace the chance to craft a legacy that honors the past while forging a future filled with prosperity and growth. The Wright House stands ready for its next steward, promising a blend of historical allure and unparalleled potential for success. Will you be the one to unlock its future? Please ask about the Historic Structure Report prepared by the University of Georgia, the dendrochronology report prepared by The Oxford Tree Ring Laboratory, and other numerous articles and studies about this historical marvel. Terms of the historical preservation will be outlined by the parties of the agreement.
