10 Rare Acres Seamlessly Connected to the Grand Oaks Equine Resort. POTENTIAL IS UNLIMITED.
Welcome to a once-in-a-lifetime offering: an iconic 10-acre estate steeped in equestrian prestige, grace, and historic soul. Formerly the private sanctuary of Gloria Austin — visionary founder of the world-renowned Grand Oaks Resort — this property is more than land and buildings; it is a living chapter in the story of American carriage driving and refined country living.
Tucked beneath a canopy of ancient oaks and bordered by the serene water views of neighboring Grand Oaks, the estate whispers of timelessness. Its classic Southern ranch-style home exudes warmth and ease, with every window framing peaceful vistas — moss-draped trees, sunlit pastures, and the soft shimmer of water beyond.
At the heart of the farm lies a remarkable signature barn that once cradled Gloria’s private carriage museum, standing as a tribute to her passion and legacy. The historic equestrian library remains, a soulful space echoing stories of the past. The building also features a charming two-bedroom apartment, ideal for guests or caretakers.
A second barn, beautifully repurposed for entertaining, offers a full kitchen, two open-concept gathering rooms, and seamless flow to an expansive patio under the oaks — perfect for al fresco celebrations or serene twilight dinners. Just across the barn aisle, a two-room apartment with full bath and laundry provides additional, flexible accommodations.
Lush, mature landscaping envelopes the estate, creating natural privacy and a sense of sanctuary rarely found. Whether imagined as a boutique equestrian retreat, private residence, or a continuation of its storied purpose, this property invites you to steward a legacy — and live amidst its grace.
THIS PROPERTY HAS POTENTIAL OF MANY USES, THE LIBRARY WOULD ACCOMMODATE UP TO 12 ANTIQUE CARS,WITH EASY ROLLUP DOOR ACCESS- The PARTY BARN and ARPARTMENTS would make one of a kind AIR B&B,, THIS IS A PROPERTY YOU CAN HAVE YOUR BUSINESS, YOUR HOBBIES AND A FABULOUS FAMILY RETREAT. It's truly like none other, come take a look.
