This Three Bedroom, Three Bath Historic Home with 2010± SF with, an additional 456± SF (approx. 2,466 SF) available, is situated on a 3.41± acre lot with a majestic red barn at the intersection of Old Natchez Trace. The home has public water with a fireplug in the front yard and is on a five-year-old documented septic system approved for up to five bedrooms. It has advantageously been placed in The Land Trust for Tennessee. This fine turn-of-the-century style home is simply dripping with history! This property has been the focal point of the Forest Home community for well over 100 years - located amid land that was the focus of many parcels of lands owned by the historic Perkins family - this area, as some have postulated, gained prominence at the turn of the twentieth century as a central location for markets, voting, and for weighing and selling farm products. It has been speculated by some that some structure has existed on this site since as early as the 1840s. It is situated diagonally across from the corner that is the turn onto Old Natchez Trace Road. There was an old Country Store located on the corner of the property that was torn down a several years ago, and the base foundation for the scales for weighing crops may still be seen. This is the historic focal point of the community then and now. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to buy a real, known historic property and location in Franklin, Williamson County, Tennessee! The home has the pristine, "old-country-feel" of "home" that can gained only with the passage of time. Because of that ambiance this location has been often chosen to film Music videos, television specials, and commercials as evidenced by the owner's extensive collection of photos taken of those events featuring several different artists and people of fame. Some that can be viewed shot at the home are: Ricky Van Shelton, 'Got a couple of good years left,' https://youtu.be/vmQ6H5KSO8A James Prosser, 'Life Goes On,' https://youtu.be/xvyHfH-UYCk Tami Jones Andrews Featuring Billy Gaines, 'Mary did you know?' https://youtu.be/fysKFOhfvzw A Judd's car commercial, https://youtu.be/Du7Fj0aQWVA The house currently is in very good condition with necessary upkeep and minimalist modernization. Within the last five years the electrical panels were upgraded, the electrical system inspected, and a new septic system was installed that can handle up to a five-bedroom home, all to Williamson County codes, otherwise it remains preserved as close to its original condition and yet remains quite livable as it is. It is still owned by the family that bought it in the early 1960s. The home features two bedrooms down with two baths, and with the addition of wall heating and window unit air conditioning, one bedroom and bath up, though the upstairs is primarily used for storage now. This home also features a living room with updated paneling and cabinetry, two downstairs bedrooms, one with a with a fireplace, a dining room that also features a fireplace, simple kitchen, a den, all with 10' ceilings in the original rooms of the home. It has a fantastic covered front porch, plus a wonderful "L" shaped covered back porch with pass through doors. The owner recently put a beautiful back deck with a pergola at the rear of the home. The red barn behind stands out as a community beacon, plus there what the seller tells me is "an old smokehouse." The entire property has been maintained preserving its original character, livable now, or ready to be improved following the protective, and proactive guidelines of the Land Trust for Tennessee. An article by Will Jordan in 2007 for 'Southern Exposure Magazine' describes it as "A County Treasure" of Williamson County, Tennessee. In the article it is noted that the owners were "more interested in preservation than restoration," and further "a lot of the features of the house and barn are exactly how we found them in 1961. There are some things you just don't disturb." These statements have been found to be true. Entering the property from the full covered front porch - complete with rocking chairs - you enter a large entry hall with ten-foot ceilings. To the right is the living room focused on the custom mantel and rebricked fireplace. Custom bookshelves and window seats really add to the room as does the large paned "wavy" old glass windows. Across the hall is a bedroom with a coal fireplace featuring beautiful glazed brick. On the other side of the wall and fireplace is another larger, wood-burning fireplace and the Dining Room that is elegant in its simplicity. There is a second bedroom and bath in the addition at the rear of the property added in 1993 that also offers a small den and the presently unheated or cooled upstairs third bedroom presently used as storage. The Sale Agent is an accomplished metal detectorist, metal detecting since the age of twelve, and has already uncovered many relics dating the property to at least the turn of the twentieth century when the property also featured a country store on the corner across from Old Natchez Trace Road in the location of the current historic marker.
