Description of 888 Forest Acres Dr, Nashville, TN 37220
Listing details for 888 Forest Acres Dr, Nashville, TN 37220 : Designer‑renovated mid‑century retreat on a gated, wooded acre in Oak Hill. Originally built in the 1950s and long associated with the Everly Brothers, this home remained in their family for over half a century a rare and personal piece of Nashville music history. Taken to the studs and fully renovated in 2023, every finish and system was thoughtfully chosen to honor the original character while delivering a truly move‑in‑ready home.
Inside, original wood floors, exposed beams, steel I-beam construction, and book matched wood paneling are balanced by a warm modern palette and vaulted ceilings that run the length of the upper level, with large windows framing a wooded canopy from nearly every room. The reimagined kitchen features Smithport solid‑wood cabinetry, Mont Blanc quartzite countertops, Café double oven range, Fulgor 36" refrigerator, paneled Bosch 800 dishwasher, and an oversized island that opens to a dining area wrapped in windows. A screened porch off the main living space flows to an open air patio and a fully fenced yard.
Four bedrooms, a dedicated office with a gas fireplace, and a separate gym/flex space offer versatility rarely found at this scale. The primary suite includes a generous sitting area and doors to a private patio, plus a spa‑inspired bath with hand glazed zellige tile, terrazzo floors, a soaking tub, a walk‑in shower, and California Faucets fixtures. Each additional bath features custom tile, brass sinks, and quartzite counters. A traditional Finlandia sauna, double carport with storage, native landscaping, and fruit trees complete the picture, along with extensive mechanical upgrades: whole home generator, new HVAC, Navien tankless water heater, Kinetico filtration, and reverse osmosis at the kitchen tap. Gated drive, wooded acre, and rare privacy minutes to Radnor Lake State Park, Brentwood, Green Hills, Brentwood, 12 South, Franklin, and downtown Nashville.
