Eaton (William T. Alston House)

Drenched in history, this stunning 1850’s Pre-Civil War Estate was once referred to as the “Showplace of Warrenton, NC.” Here’s your once in a lifetime chance to own Eaton!

Eaton (William T. Alston House) was custom built by the renowned architect, carpenter and joiner, Jacob W. Holt. The home has both Greek and Italianate features that were adapted to local preferences. For those who do not know… this area was once the playground of the wealthy.

The home boasts 4,207 square feet with 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. Each bedroom includes 2 closets, a rare amenity for a time when most homes had no bedroom closets at all. This property is unique in so many ways! Eaton includes approximately 20 acres of land. The William T. Alston House is situated on 11 acres within the Warrenton town limits, while the remaining 8.4 acres lie outside the town limits and are zoned for agriculture, permitting the keeping of horses, cows, and other livestock.

Eaton is home to many old Oak trees, Magnolias, English Boxwoods, and even a Pecan Grove. The property also includes a greenhouse, outbuildings with concrete floors, and 2 barns – one with a tack room and carriage storage. Enjoy the green pastures and total privacy of this beautiful once in a lifetime estate!
