Magnolia Court | A Heritage Home in the Heart of Maryville with towering columns and a stately front porch overlooking the spirited fields of Maryville College, Magnolia Court stands as a proud, storied symbol of Blount County's past and a beautifully preserved invitation to its future. Believed to be the first Colonial Revival home built in the county and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Magnolia Court is as rich in history as it is in character. While some records place her origins in 1896 and others in 1920, all agree on her architectural significance and the legacy she holds. Originally commissioned by Samuel Houston Dunn and his wife, Mary Alice Bird Dunn (close friends of Eleanor Roosevelt), this home has long been a beacon of grace and civic pride. Eleanor herself named Mrs. Dunn Blount's first female Postmaster Mistress, a title that adds yet another chapter to this home's remarkable story. In later years, one of Blount County's esteemed bankers made his home at the cherished Magnolia Court. With a deep sense of pride and purpose, he served at the historic Blount Bank, an institution that once stood as a cornerstone of the community and now endures as Preservation Plaza on Broadway, a lasting tribute to the county's rich heritage and enduring spirit. Over the past five years, Magnolia Court has been lovingly and respectfully restored. Every improvement has been made with reverence for her roots. From the reclaimed vintage farmhouse sink in the newly remodeled kitchen, to the hand-crafted cabinetry by Gillenwater that echoes throughout the home. The addition of an efficient scullery, a new powder room with exposed brick, pedestal sink and penny round flooring and a full bath attached to the main level office or guest suite blend modern function with timeless style.
