There are many databases available: EnhancerAtlas: http://enhanceratlas.org/, VISTA https://enhancer.lbl.gov/, FANTOM http://fantom.gsc.riken.jp/5/data/, DenDB: http://www.cbrc.kaust.edu.sa/dendb/

You may start with the results of ChromHMM (http://compbio.mit.edu/ChromHMM/) or Segway (http://noble.gs.washington.edu/proj/encyclopedia/). In both cases, we are talking about prediction (by machine learning), rather than a proper knowledge base.
