The main homes sits atop of a 600 ft driveway with an elevation gain of 50 feet over the course from the driveway's bottom entrance to the corrugated concrete breezeway landing between the Dog Trot style home and what is meant to mimic an attached smoke house but actually is a small work room that leads into a fully climatized concrete gun vault that doubles as a storm shelter rated at 350 mph winds. Inside the 3 bed 2.5 bathroom, full custom home that is all 2x6 construction with foam and blow in blanket insulation you will find the owners went out of their way to make sure the rustic feeling extended inside with 12,000 sq ft of tongue and groove Georgia pine and a custom built stair case which was milled from the Cedar trees that were removed from the property to make way for the driveway and home site. The treads to the stairs are the heart of the Cedar trees with a rich, red color which contrasts nicely against the White Oak stair case stringers that are bordered by the Cedar log posts and hand hewn Cedar spindles that were intentionally allowed to have natures bugs work on them which created an amazing natural, scrimshaw type carvings on each and every spindle in a way that could never be duplicated without Nature's involvement. Once you get to the top of the stairs you will find an entertainment loft that features a surround sound system along with a beautiful pool table and custom wood bench along with a matching pool stick holder. While playing a round of pool, this loft area is deigned to over look the Red Oak, Amish built hardwood floors that are accented by the handmade, custom Hickory cabinets. Rounding out the upstairs is 2 bedrooms and one bath that your guests or family members will be sure to enjoy.

Making your way back downstairs, you can't help but notice the 22' tall fire place with gas log insert that has a hand cut limestone rock hearth that came from a home on an adjoining farm dating back to 1863. Digging in to the finer details of the downstairs, you will notice several axe hewn, squared red heart Cedar logs that were the main structural support in the same home that the hearth came from that are now the main structural support in this home. Making your way towards the Master bedroom you pass the half bath that has the unique feature of a hand hammered copper sink sitting inside a Tennessee Jack Daniels whiskey barrel that was sourced from Lynchburg, TN. Once inside the Master you will see a large area with a spacious walk-in closet and a Master bath to die for that includes an open, walk in shower along with an original cast iron, claw foot tub.

If all those details are not dreamy enough, the large front porch overlooks the serenity of the untouched timbered hillside that protects you from the outside world. The backside of the home has a beautiful gathering area covered by Western Cedar rafters and imported Blue Pine from Montana that is held up by the same axe hewn, squared Cedar logs that are found inside the home, which are sitting on top of stone pillars that are accented at night by a landscape lighting package that adds just the right amount of romantic lighting for any late evening cocktail hour.

The property is truly designed for the homeowner that wants custom associated with serenity, privacy, and close to amenities. The property lies 6 miles from 1-24, 4.5 miles to 1-840, and 8 miles to Murfreesboro's grocery stores, shopping areas, medical facilities and dining. To make this estate even more feature rich is that is has its own 100 yard shooting range with shooting house, log play house for kids, chicken coop with natural watering system, wildlife pond, orchard with pear trees and Granny Smith apple trees, open faced lean-to for storage & open-faced covered parking for 4 additional vehicles.
