Dating back to the early 1800’s, the remarkable La Grange Estate is centered around a grand Georgian residence atop 2 plus acres- nestled in the heart of scenic Rocks State Park. Once the site of a thriving iron works, the adjoining 5.9 acres (Tax ID 1305043891, included in sale) features a historic general store, numerous outbuildings, lush grounds and an additional building site for future expansion (Buyer to verify with the county). The elegant stone home boasts 11 fireplaces, intricate molding, twin ornate iron mantels in the adjoining kitchen and den, paneled window wells, 10 foot ceilings, wide-plank floors throughout, 6 light-filled bedrooms (a 7th in the cottage), hand-hewn beams, spacious bright rooms for entertaining, updated electric and plumbing, and wiring for a whole-house generator. With its own separate entrance and parking lot, the general store at 3810 Rocks Station Road was most recently a well-frequented antique store (Buyer to verify non-conforming use permit with the county). The potential for a 2-bedroom, 1-bath apartment above the store lends itself to a possible guesthouse or extended family quarters. The fully remodeled cottage (left side of the main home) features exposed hand-hewn beams, interior stone walls, and a cathedral ceiling - the perfect separate guest quarters or possible rental. The property includes private forested hiking trails east of the main house and beyond the garden, an outdoor fire pit/grilling area, a charming 1960’s milking parlor and workshop, an Italianate schoolhouse/storage building, fencing around approximately 5 acres, and a separate 1/2 acre fenced dog park. Mature arborvitae line the north and south boundaries, affording privacy on the expansive 500 sq ft grand front porch. Panoramic views from the porch and front lawn include the stunning Rocks of Deer Creek, with upper bedroom views of the fabled King & Queen Seat. Given his family connections to the Marquis de Lafayette, prominent iron master Isaac Rogers purchased and named the estate “La Grange” in 1834- after the French chateau where Lafayette died that same year. Oral tradition maintains that La Grange iron was used to make the revolving turret of the epochal Civil War battleship the Monitor. Given the estate’s importance in U.S. history, all structures on the grounds have been designated “eligible” for the National Register of Historic Places. More than just an elegant country estate, La Grange offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of American history with endless possibilities for future expansion.
