1757 Bell Hollow Rd , Vanleer, TN 37181(Dickson County)

The Bell Farm Estate is made up of the beautiful rolling hardwood ridges Middle Tennessee is known for. The property was timbered (select cut) in 2020 with a strategy of enhancing the overall timber value and health. As a result of this nicely executed select-cut strategy, one of the many great benefits is the enhanced habitat for wildlife. Select cutting properly opens the forest canopy allowing light to reach the ground spawning lots of new green growth, plus it leaves a diverse mix of tree species and ages, creating a more natural and resilient ecosystem.

Meticulously managed seasonal food plots, plus an abundance of mast producing trees located throughout the property provide supplemental nutrition for the wildlife making this truly sanctuary like.

History

The Bell Farm Estate is a piece of the previous Bell Family ’Cloverdale Farm’’ that dates back to the early 1800s. Remnants of the old wagon trail that connected much of Montgomery county to Dickson county is still found on the property today. The 133 acre farm boasts beautiful views of all the neighboring ridge lines of Vanleer and Cumberland Furnace as it sits as one of the highest points in the area. The one mile driveway meanders through the white oak forest to the peak of the property at what is known by most of Dickson County as ’The Cloverfield’’. The expansive property is home to a healthy herd of whitetail deer and multiple flocks of turkey.

The Mountain Esque Custom Home paints the perfect picture of rural Tennessee living at its best with large open windows in the common area for 180-degree view of the great outdoors. The current owners have planted over 30 varieties of apple, pear, plum and fuyu persimmon trees three years ago and expect a yield of fruit in the summer of 2026! There are multiple green fields on the property with existing deer stands strategically placed. The extensive trail network provides access to all corners of the property. There are three active springs that would provide a great source for a future lake in the front or the rear of the house. The bottom field by the road is roughly 5 acres of historic planting field, currently covered in fescue and other native wild grasses that would make a great field to house horses and cattle.

The Bell Farm dates back to the early 1800s as Dr. Bell was one of the last doctors that made house calls to neighboring communities by horseback. Dr. Bell later created the Cloverdale School to provide continuing education for children in the community. Remnants of the school and other resource building can be found on the property along with a cistern from the late 1700s that watered the horses on the wagon trail that connected much of the area.
