Milky Way Farm

Residential Buildings

Milky Way Farm is a historic estate near Pulaski in Giles County, Tennessee, built from 1931 to 1933 as the residence of candy magnate Franklin C. Mars and his wife Ethel V. Mars. Architect James F. Drake designed the 25,000-square-foot, 35-room Tudor Revival manor house, and the roughly 2,800-acre property once included 70 cottages, 30 barns and facilities for breeding Thoroughbred horses and Hereford cattle. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984, the reconstituted estate is now used for weddings, tours and other events.

Has Building Type

Farm, Concepts

Entity-backed identity for the building-type enum value this building already carries, resolved to an architecture concept by an explicit value-to-entity map (phase 3 bucket conversion, docs\design_entity_backed_browse_buckets_20260928.md). The building-type fact itself stays on the building unchanged.
