Kinderton Manor is a stunning Georgian mansion built in 1834 by renowned architect Jacob Holt, that offers an incredible opportunity for a B&B Inn, destination restaurant, or wedding/event venue. Originally built for Abram Watkins Venerable, who served in both the US and Confederate State Congresses, this historic estate is rich in charm and sophistication. It boasts 11 wood-burning fireplaces, French scenic Zuber wall murals, hand-carved double archways, and ornate mantels, and exudes elegance at every turn.

The manor includes a wide, grand entryway featuring a stunning staircase with an S-shaped handrail and guest powder room. The main level includes a parlor, dining room, library with rare chestnut paneling and carved moldings, kitchen and bedroom/bath suite. The hidden back staircase spirals from the basement all the way up to the widow’s walk, and there is a full basement apartment with 2 exterior entrances, kitchen, fireplace, open air potting porch and snooker room. This English basement with daylight windows would make a fabulous speakeasy, bourbon/cigar or wine pub.

Upstairs are 6 bedrooms, with fireplaces, and 4 full baths. There is a large, floored attic.

The grounds are equally breathtaking, 4+ acres overlooking the 5th hole of the Donald Ross-designed Kinderton Golf Course. Ancient oaks, magnolias, a pink crepe myrtle allee, and a sculpted garden fountain grace the property and will enhance outdoor events. There's plenty of room for tents, too! The guest cottage offers proven rental income, while the newly connected public sewer system (2023) enhances the property’s B&B potential.
