101 Shell Road #101, Jonesborough, TN 37659

Built in 1925, this substantial two-story farmhouse offers a rare opportunity to restore a piece of Washington County history. Rich with original character and impressively spacious for its time, the home is ready for a complete renovation that honors its past while creating something new.

The property has deep local roots, with family history linking the land to brothers David Andrew Vines and the Reverend William Madison Vines. Judge David A. Vines served as mayor of Johnson City (1904 to 1908), attorney general of Tennessee's First Judicial District and judge of the First Judicial Circuit Court.

The road now known as Shell Road was once called Judge Vines Road in his honor. Located just outside historic Jonesborough, Tennessee's oldest town, the home retains a tiered concrete cooling trough, an early form of refrigeration once used to keep milk, butter and other perishables cool.

This century-old farmhouse presents a distinctive restoration project for someone with the vision to preserve its character and write its next chapter. FEMA Elevation Certificate on file. A portion of the property is located in Flood Zone AE. The home's floor above the crawl space is approximately 1.1 feet ABOVE the FEMA Base Flood Elevation (BFE).
