Property Description

Rare Multi-Generational Home with 4.46 Acres IN THE CITY! This former farm is where country meets city convenience, and it's minutes from the airport, interstate, Hip Donelson, and downtown.
The original home is filled with character, and has been thoughtfully re-configured for multi-generational living. The primary side features 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. 2 bedrooms are on the main, with an upstairs loft-style bedroom with a full bathroom and living room. The kitchen has a large central island, Jenn Air gas range and beverage fridge.
The adjoining apartment rents for $2400/month, has 2 bedrooms, a kitchenette, and a full bathroom; creating an ideal setup for family, guests, or rental income. Prefer a single-family layout? The home can easily be converted back with the removal of a single wall.
Endless possibilities await outside with two huge garages. One includes a wood shop and a 24' x 20' artist's studio with electric, plumbing and a half bath. The second is a giant 30' x 80' car workshop with a 2 Post A-Symmetric Lift (10,000 pounds) and 200 Amp service. Not into cars? Turn it into a recording studio, a work-from-home or entertainment space....the sky is the limit!
At the back of the property is a charming "off-grid" solar-powered 2-bedroom cottage. How "off-grid"? The gutters run into a 500 gallon tank, the bathroom utilizes grey water and has a composting toilet, (can be connected to sewer,) there's a wood burning stove in the living room and a propane heater in the bedroom. The cottage is mainly used in the winter months, but you could easily add mini-splits for cooling and year-round living.
Clear some brush to also reveal a creek at the back of the property!
Whether you're looking for a private Nashville homestead, a multi-generational home, an income-producing property, or simply room to breathe without giving up city access, this property offers acreage, flexibility, and location. Bring your vision to finish what these creative sellers started.
