Allandale Mansion

Today's picture features Kingsport, Tennessee's Allandale Mansion. This stately home's Georgian architecture, ornate furniture, antiquities, fine art and well-manicured grounds bring to mind images of the old south, complete with loads of southern charm. When Harvey and Ruth Brooks built Allandale Mansion in 1950, it was designed as a family home situated on a scenic 500 acre farm, not a museum or special event venue. But today, the city of Kingsport offers its use as both. Allandale Mansion is a favorite venue for formal weddings & receptions, bridal showers, anniversary parties, corporate meetings and much more. The spacious and wonderfully decorated barn is often used for dances and large gatherings.
