About this home

Some homes simply offer space—987 Bennetts Mills Road offers a place to truly put down roots. Set on approximately 1.25 acres in Jackson, this spacious 5-bedroom, 3-bath home has been cherished by the same family for more than 30 years and carries the warmth of a home that has been genuinely lived in and loved. With over 3,000 square feet of living space, room to gather and grow, and an extraordinary detached garage that sets this property apart, this is a home ready to welcome its next chapter. Inside, generous living spaces provide plenty of room for everyday living, entertaining, and gathering with the people who matter most. Five bedrooms offer exceptional flexibility for family, guests, a home office, or whatever your next chapter may bring, while the partially finished basement rovides even more usable space. But car enthusiasts, hobbyists, and mechanics—this is where things get exciting. The massive detached garage is far from your traditional garage and offers the kind of space that is increasingly hard to find. Currently outfitted with two automotive lifts, it has all the makings of a mechanic's dream garage, serious workshop, or incredible space for the automotive enthusiast or collector. The two lifts are not included in the sale but may be separately negotiated for an additional cost.

About Hyson-Bennett

Mills

Hyson-Bennett Mills, located between Downtown Vista Center and the Mill Creek industrial corridor, is a historic and mixed-use Vista Center neighborhood with brick mill architecture and a canal-side greenway. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Mill Street & Foundry Avenue junction, where converted warehouse bays frame coffee counters, maker studios, and small galleries. Community pillars include Bennett Mills Market Hall, Hyson Works Studio Collective, and the Mill Creek Playhouse. Narrow lanes and loading-dock facades give many blocks a loft-district rhythm, while pocket parks soften the edges near the water. Sidewalks trace old rail spurs toward trailheads and small courtyards. Evenings read as low-key and walkable, with patios tucked into former service alleys.
