Property Description
THE PRESTON WOODALL HOUSE | A LEGACY PROPERTY. A NEW CHAPTER. An extraordinary opportunity to own one of Benson's most distinctive historic properties. Established in 1890, The Preston Woodall House combines timeless architectural character with the flexibility to envision an entirely new future. Offered at $1,095,000, this remarkable estate is more than a historic residence. Its combination of elegant interior spaces, overnight accommodations, gathering areas and outdoor settings creates possibilities for a variety of residential, hospitality and event-oriented uses, subject to applicable approvals. Stay here. Host here. Live here. Imagine the property as a private estate, boutique hospitality destination, executive retreat, owner-operated hospitality concept—or a combination of residential and business uses. Its established event spaces also create opportunities for weddings and receptions, corporate gatherings, holiday celebrations, private dinners, social events and milestone occasions throughout the year. For an event-oriented buyer, one of the property's greatest advantages is flexibility. Indoor and outdoor ceremony and reception settings provide alternatives across seasons and weather conditions, while the property's additional gathering spaces create opportunities extending well beyond weddings. For the entrepreneur or hospitality operator, the opportunity is equally compelling: one historic property with multiple potential uses and potential revenue streams. The Preston Woodall House offers something increasingly difficult to recreate—the character of a historic estate combined with spaces capable of supporting a modern vision. The property already exists. The next chapter belongs to its new owner. 201 E Hill Street | Benson, NC Offered at $1,095,000 Potential commercial, hospitality, event, lodging and other uses are subject to zoning, permitting, licensing and applicable governmental approvals.
