The day begins with sunlight streaming through walls of glass, casting golden patterns across the post-and-beam architecture that surrounds you. You step onto the covered porch, coffee in hand, and breathe in the crisp Tennessee air as the Harpeth River glides peacefully past your estate. Mornings are quiet here—whether spent walking the ten acres of manicured grounds, enjoying a game of pool in the sky bridge, or simply letting nature’s stillness clear your thoughts. By afternoon, creativity takes center stage. You wander into Dark Horse Studio, a legendary sanctuary where world-class artists have recorded their greatest work, and the sound of music fills the rustic, wood-clad walls. Evenings are for gathering—friends and family join you in the Party Barn, laughter echoing beneath soaring beams as firelight dances outside. When the night winds down, you retreat to the Manor, its elegant craftsmanship offering warmth, intimacy, and calm. Surrounded by river, forest, and history, you realize this isn’t just a home—it’s a retreat, a legacy, a place where life is elevated to art.
