The Black-Greer-Lee House, c. 1900

328 Church Street

 

The Black-Greer-Lee House PhotoThis home was built by John D. Black and his wife, Julia Belle Whatley Black in 1900. Mr. Black was employed by the Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Louis Railway Company. Before Mr. Black died in 1936, the house had been subdivided into a duplex. When Mrs. Black died in 1954, the estate sold the home to the Methodist Foundation for Retired Ministers for $8,216.57. They held ownership for 22 years until it was sold to George S. Davis, Jr. in 1976. Mr. Davis sold the home in 1998 to Jason & Aimee Greer.

 

The Greer’s did extensive renovation and additions to the house. They converted the house back to a single family dwelling. The current owner, Bill Lee, purchased the house in 2008. He has added a rear deck, potting porch & kitchen garden.
