Kenny Rogers’ Athens-area Estate to be Auctioned

Beaver Dam Farms, the 973-acre estate formerly owned by country singer Kenny Rogers is heading to auction on July 9, according to an article in the Atlanta Journal Constitution.

Although Rogers has been most successful with country audiences, he has charted more than 120 hit singles across various music genres, topped the country and pop album charts for more than 200 individual weeks in the United States alone and has sold more than 120 million records worldwide, certifying his position as one of the best-selling musicians of all time.

The property, which is currently owned by the Weston Adams family, is not far from Athens. The estate is centered around a 12,000-square-foot mansion, but it includes three private spring-fed lakes, five guest houses and a clubhouse and a lake clubhouse, according to the AJC article.

There’s also an equestrian arena on the property that includes 44 stalls, two swimming pools, two clay tennis courts and an 18-hole golf course.

 “In my 33 years in the real estate business I have had the pleasure of touring many beautiful properties, but Beaver Dam Farms took my breath away,” Todd Good, CEO of Accelerated Marketing Group told the AJC. Accelerated Marketing Group is the company marketing the auction.

The estate’s owners live on the other side of the country, a statement from Accelerated Marketing Group read. “They felt their inability to utilize the country estate on a more routine basis was depleting from the beauty of the property and it was just time to let it go.”

The property is being sold fully furnished and the owners said they will sell the property to the highest bidder “at or above $3.5 million.” The replacement cost of the property is estimated at more than $30 million, the statement said.

Interested and qualified buyers can schedule an appointment to tour the grounds beginning June 4. Call 800-791-0913 or email Accelerate Marketing Group at Tgood@amgre.com.
