This former church at 9616 Old Alto Highway in Decherd, TN offers an incredible opportunity for a creative buyer to repurpose a unique property in a prime location. Zoned R-2 Residential, the site allows by-right conversion into a single-family home or duplex, making it ideal for someone looking to transform it into a distinctive residence, an income-producing duplex, or even a one-of-a-kind Airbnb. Additional opportunities exist by special exception, including multi-family housing, daycare or school, bed and breakfast, assisted living, professional offices, or community space. Perfectly positioned near Monteagle and surrounded by the beauty of the Cumberland Plateau, the property sits just minutes from Tims Ford Lake with its boating, fishing, and lakeside recreation, and close to Short Springs Natural Area and Machine Falls, Rutledge Falls, and The Falls at Sewanee Creek, offering some of the best hiking and waterfalls in Middle Tennessee. For those who enjoy local culture, the world-renowned Cascade Hollow Distilling Co., home of George Dickel Whisky, is right down the road. Centrally located just 1.5 hours from Nashville, Chattanooga, and Huntsville, and about 45 minutes to Murfreesboro, this property combines small-town charm with convenient access to major cities, making it poised for both immediate enjoyment and long-term equity growth.
