Historic zoning commission approves 504-square-foot rear deck for Nolensville Feed Mill at 7280 Nolensville Road
Summary
The commission granted a certificate of appropriateness for an open rear deck and stairs at the historic Nolensville Feed Mill building at 7280 Nolensville Road; staff recommended the design and materials to match previously approved features.
The Town of Nolensville Historic Zoning Commission approved a certificate of appropriateness for a 504-square-foot open rear deck, stairs and railing for the Nolensville Feed Mill building at 7280 Nolensville Road.
Brad (town staff) told commissioners the build date for the feed-mill building dates to about 1890 with a later (1930s) reconstruction. Staff reported the proposed deck would match the railing and trim previously approved in 2021 and would provide additional ingress, egress and outdoor seating space that could overlook Mill Creek. Staff recommended approval, citing compatibility with the building's historical character.
Jay Wolfhine, representing applicant Darren Sheff, said the owner invested in landscaping and aims to increase usable outdoor space for customers to enjoy the site: "The addition of the deck would just... add to the enjoyment and ability to utilize that area," he said. Commissioners asked about dimensions and materials; Wolfhine confirmed the deck layout measured 38 by 12 feet with a 6-by-8-foot step-back walkway and that pressure-treated 2-by-6 planking would be used to match existing structure details.
A commissioner moved to approve the application; the motion was seconded. The commission called the vote and recorded approval by the assembled members.
