209 Maple Tree Drive -- Bristol, Tennessee
A Legacy Estate, Offered for the First Time -- LIVE AUCTION Saturday July 18th @ 10 AM
The Zager Estate
For the first time in over 70 years, 209 Maple Tree Drive comes to market -- a mid-century time capsule set on 2.1 rolling, tree-shaded acres in the sought-after Lick Branch Estates, and the longtime home of Victor and Muriel Zager, two of Bristol's most extraordinary citizens.
Victor Zager (1928-2008) was a Korean War veteran, attorney, and industrialist who helped bring a manufacturing plant to Bristol supplying advanced textile products to the U.S. Armed Forces. A nationally recognized leader in his field, he was equally devoted to community and faith -- serving as president of multiple synagogues, administering over 600 congregations nationwide through the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism, and even moderating a press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir in Jerusalem. His philanthropy endowed a Diversity Lectureship at East Tennessee State University and a Holocaust Studies chair at Emory and Henry College.
Muriel Kagan Zager (1933-2025) was one of the first women to report as a foreign correspondent from Israel, Iran, and Lebanon, bringing decades of clarity on Middle Eastern affairs to readers of the Bristol Herald Courier and Washington County News. Her international experiences inspired five novels, including The Faithful, a National Book Award nominee. Muriel continued traveling the world well into her nineties.
Together, the Zagers built a shared life of remarkable breadth -- from the textile plants of East Tennessee to press conferences in Jerusalem -- and this home was their sanctuary through it all. Now, their legacy estate awaits its next chapter.
