This authentic, 18th Century water-powered grist mill sits along the beautiful banks of Fifteen Mile Creek in Washington County, Virginia. Having begun operation in 1781, Parks Mill has over a 200 year operating history and continues to function as a lucrative business. Built around 1780 by Oliver Alexander, the mill has been available for new ownership very few times in its history! Parks Mill offers a breathtaking setting along the lovely creek where you can view (and “hear”) the astounding “ water falls”, feel the cool breezes, smell the aroma of the hickory smoked barbecue, and taste the unique flavor of the home-style cuisine! Along with the General Store, Parks Mill continues to offer freshly milled corn meal, grits, and other products produced by its unique water powered process. Located only seconds from South Holston Lake access, Parks Mill also offers excellent proximity to the Virginia Creeper Trail, Historic downtown Abingdon (which features the State Theatre of Virginia , The Barter Theatre), the Historic Martha Washington Inn, NASCAR’s Bristol Motor Speedway, and easy access to I-81! The mill currently provides service to four satellite locations throughout the local area which serves to increase income as well as name recognition! Parks Mill consists of several buildings including the “General Store”, the Smokehouse, and the old Grist Mill. Beautifully landscaped, the mill offers plentiful parking along with RV hook-up for those visitors who may choose to “stay awhile”. Live entertainment has been a staple of the mill upon the “stage” area situated along the front section of the grist mill. With use of the water power from Fifteen Mile Creek, the current owner has researched the potential for Parks Mill to operate as a hydroelectric facility! Don’t miss the opportunity to own this historic, income producing property in a most gorgeous area of our country! Current owner will be happy to stay on for an agreed time to instruct new owners and familiarize them with the daily tasks of the mill operation! Current owner has kept excellent historic records of Parks Mill and the property/business can be fully viewed by visiting www.parksmill.com .
