Cooleemee Plantation

The 1800-acre Cooleemee Plantation in Davie County was permanently conserved by the LandTrust for Central North Carolina in 1996, making it one of our first conservation easements. The historic plantation is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and has been maintained since its origin in the 18th century by the Hairston Family. The site features over four miles of frontage along the Yadkin River, native hardwood forests, and several large farm fields. The plantation house is one of the best examples of historic Greek Revival architecture in North Carolina. Original production date 2003 JG Media LLC.
