Create your own generational estate, equestrian property or exclusive retreat.



Iconic Happy Valley Farm is a rare and elegant landmark property nestled at the foot of scenic Lookout Mountain, Georgia and 10 minutes to downtown Chattanooga. For over eight decades Happy Valley Farms was home to World Class breeders and trainers of American Saddlebred horses, Jersey Cattle, and the Hutcheson family philanthropy.



This historic property of rare significance consists of 92 acres centered around a grand 1930s Colonial Revival home and gorgeous grounds. The surrounding landscape includes a secondary log cabin residence, a state-of-the-art equestrian facility, riding arena, several pastures, tree-lined trails, 2 acre stocked lake, Olympic sized concrete pool with flagstone surround, screened- in pool house with his/hers changing rooms and kitchen, smokehouse, Manager's house, Caretaker cottage, miles of blackboard fencing and plenty of deer, turkey and wildlife. Seldom do you capture such majestic views.

Extreme attention to detail was paid to the completion of the recently renovated first-class barn that includes an indoor washing area, tack rooms, office and 27 stalls each with an individual automatic water system.

A gated meandering drive leads you to the elegant main residence boasting almost 8,000 square feet of living space, 8 bedrooms and 8.5 baths ready to be restored to its original luster. From the grand foyer with an elegantly winding stairway, arched doorways, custom moldings, wood floors on all levels, architectural finishes, original detail and craftsmanship throughout including steel iBEAM and Crossbeam framing and original slate roof.

Steps away, a tranquil mountain retreat awaits. This circa 1830's log cabin is tucked within a private woodland forest and provides an additional 3,000 square feet of living.

The pastoral setting is graced by majestic hardwoods, mature boxwoods, and the remains of a formal English garden designed by the first licensed landscape architect in the state of Georgia. Enjoy the benefits of owning your own spacious greenhouse with an attached prep room and sink.

Whether your dream is a private residence, equestrian estate, exclusive horse breeding and training facility or a bed and breakfast/wedding venue, this land holds heritage and legacy. The opportunities are endless.

Additional acreage available.
