Property Description
JV opportunity for an entrepreneur or hospitality group could capitalize on the thriving special events business that is already booking weddings for 2026. The current owner/operators will stay on as operators, minority equity owners & consultants, or whatever scenario is amenable to all parties. The owners have master land plans from the famed designer Jeff Speck, land planner for Rosemary Beach and many other developments. The current owners worked with internationally renowned land planners and architect Stephen Fuller to develop plans for homes to be built in either the traditional new urbanist town style, or a more traditional neighborhood with only 10 estate lots. If you have a developer's vision, you'll recognize Inola as a ripe opportunity. Buildings include homes, a 90-seat chapel surrounded by formal English gardens, and a 6,000 SF event space, stables, barns, gardens, tavern/inn, post office, and shops along the roughly 1/4 mile long "main street" with pea gravel roads and white fences all looking over the 3+ acre Sugar Lake, with trophy bass and large koi.
The colonial buildings are the most period-perfect in the U.S., with all trim, hardware, handmade windows and glass, 300-year-old wood floors, exquisite moldings and appointments, 14 fireplaces. The windows are handblown glass in the main buildings and even each color, size and number of bricks for the facades were meticulously recreated over a 10-year construction period. Built by an eccentric visionary in the 1980s with the meticulous management by the town architect from Colonial Williamsburg VA painstakingly constructed the village. The current owners have thoughtfully renovated and improved the landscaping and buildings. The interiors are elegantly appointed with a chic modern flare. The estate has taken on a new life as an upscale mixed-use new urbanist property with weddings, special events, and a desirable movie location. The focal point of the property is the Wythe Mansion, an impressive exact replica of the famous estate. The newest addition is a 2,000 sq ft luxury suite on the top floor that is ready for custom finishing. In total, there are over 15 bedrooms, 12 full baths, and 5 1/2 baths in 4 residences.
Voted as "Best Destination Wedding Venue in GA '22, '23 & '24" by Jezebel, “Best Destination Wedding Venue '23” by Modern Luxury Weddings, "Couples Choice Award '22, '23 & '24" by readers of Wedding Wire & The Knot and many more accolades - Inola has a successful, built-in special events business with room to grow. "Wetherburn's Tavern" is an exact replica of the famed Tavern and Inn, with event space for up to 75 and guest suites. The 6,000 sq ft, opulent Orchard Pavilion and adjoining formal gardens can seat up to 300 guests and overlooks beautiful pastureland and 3+ acre Sugar Lake. Infrastructure can perfectly accommodate large events, with wifi throughout the grounds, plenty of parking, pea gravel covering 90% of the roads, all underground utilities, three phase power, and 1 gig of fiber. This is a rare opportunity for an irreplaceable business development or private estate.
