3 Bedroom - Nashville's Nature & Outdoor Paradise

Description from the owner

Enjoy the city life then retreat to this newly renovated 3 bedroom home on 6 acres, surrounded by massive oak & maple trees.

Located just one mile from the scenic Natchez Trace Parkway, this lovely home is conveniently nestled between Nashville and downtown Historic Franklin. Less than 20 miles (or 20 mins) either way will have you strolling the shops on main street and admiring the architecture of downtown Franklin or inside the famous Ryman Auditorium off Broadway in downtown Nashville to catch one of the many live shows. Don't forget to stop at the Loveless Cafe and Barn on Highway 100 on your way out, (just a mile from the house...) to fill up on world famous biscuits or attend Wednesday nights live event Music City Roots!

For those seeking peace and quiet, wildlife watching, star gazing or just a relaxing refuge, stay here to replenish your batteries.

Having lived within walking distance for the past several years, I know from experience the tranquility and beauty of this spot. Massive oak and maple trees grace the front yard providing shade on the screened in front porch for a perfect reading spot. The back yard offers a full patio for sunbathing or outdoor dining and a pergola provides a respite from the afternoon sun. Fabulous views of the hills in the distance provide the place to capture sunsets.

The home is newly remodeled and fully furnished with three bedrooms, one full bath, a large kitchen open to a dining area, living room and artist's studio.

For those seeking inspiration to get creative juices flowing again, you have found it. The studio is bathed in natural light and has a sink for those interested in painting, sculpting, building or whatever medium you choose. For those seeking darker, rustic spaces for writing inspiration or the like, there is a barn with electricity nearby. Nature enthusiasts will be delighted with the sounds and sights of pileated woodpeckers and enormous oak, poplar and hickory trees.

Goats are in pasture in back, great for kids but parents need to keep eye out b/c goats are curious and may nibble!

The locale is a favorite among bikers. After a long ride, relish the outdoor shower! Edwin Warner and Percy Warner Parks which comprise over 2,000 acres of hiking, biking and horse back riding trails is only seven miles away. The Harpeth River is even closer for all your canoeing and floating desires.

Whether you need a private retreat or a resting spot while you take in city life, this is the ideal place for your Nashville vacation.Read more

  Experience all Nashville has to offer in this leafy hideaway

  Left on 06/28/2012 for a stay in June 2012
  
  

  We are from Melbourne australia and together with one of our adult daughters we flew from Vegas to Nashville for a week.
  
  The home is an easy 1/2 hour from Nashville city in a beautiful treed area called Pasquo not far from Bellevue and the start of the Natchez Trace Parkway. The area is now just as famous for the popular and must visit Loveless Cafe (Tennessee homestyle cooking at its best) and Chaffeys Barn (show and dinner) each 1 mile away.
  
  The home is on 5 acres. Recently renovated, the time we did spend inside apart from the bedrooms was the living area as we ate every morning- and the nights we were home- on the back patio to experience the cool morning breezes and warm night air (having arrived from a cold Melbourne winter) whilst eating cheeses and sipping on a wine or an ice cold Tennessee beer.
  
  Supermarkets and shopping are less than 2 miles away and the area is not short of fine dining either (can reccommend 360 about 15 mins away & Mere Bulles about 20 mins away) and many other cafes and restaurants.
  
  The historic town of Franklin and the beautiful village of Leipers Fork are only half hour away too. Must visit places.
  
  We did al the must do tourist things in Nashville but we also loved some of the local sights such as Belle Meade plantation,Belle Meade area, Cheekwood Botanical gardens.
  
  Downsides? Well could not think of many to be honest. Internet wifi would have been good but my wife loved seeing me not check my emails daily.
  
  In short if you want a 5 star hotel experience go and do that and pay for it in Nashville.If however you want a home away from home not too far from Nashville that you cannot get to where ever you want and see whatever you want but far enough away from the city that you can start to experience something of Tennessee living and hospitality in a semi rural environment then I cannot reccommend this place highly enough.
