Nashville, Tennessee is many things to many people, from music lovers to those who love the great outdoors and everything in between. All well-loved cities have nicknames and if the number of those are any indication of how much it’s loved by its residents, Nashville is near the top. We’re all familiar with "Music City" because of the Grand Ole Opry, but what about its other nickname, "Athens of the South?" Though some say it’s because there are 24 colleges in the Nashville area, there is also the full-sized replica of Athens’ Parthenon that was built in 1897 for the Tennessee Centennial Exposition. Then there is the "Protestant Vatican" or the "Buckle of the Bible Belt" because of the city’s 700 churches and home to the largest producer of Bibles in the world. Nashville is headquarters for multiple religious denominations, "Little Kurdistan" because it has the largest population of Kurdish people in the country, "Cashville" from a rap album by Young Buck, "Nash Vegas" because . . well, there doesn’t seem to be a because, and finally "The Hot Chicken Capital" because fried chicken fans can’t find it drenched in a cayenne pepper paste anywhere else. But Nashville has a special secret that is its real estate, both traditional and contemporary.

The latest in a string of Nashville beauties is a house that captures every childhood dream that followed us into adulthood - a treehouse. Forever seeking a peaceful respite in a much too chaotic world, where better to chill out than being in the treetops of a hardwood forest from spring through fall with city light views warming the winter nights? This three-story, 7,165-square-foot three-bedroom, five-bath home is located on five acres on the side of a forested hillside and blends seamlessly into its natural environment. Painstakingly constructed of stacked limestone, steel-framed glass walls and black-stained cedar exterior, the interior also consists of natural materials such as floors of Chinese slate and reclaimed heart wood and stone fireplaces. The upper level office is surrounded by two stories of glass offering stunning views and the master suite is away from the guest rooms offering complete privacy. Architect Seab Tuck artfully combined elegance and rusticity making it perfect for entertaining large groups or intimate family enjoyment. Fireplace openings are large to accommodate a roaring blaze; it has a large gym and private glass enclosed porch for the hot tub. The home has large bedrooms, sitting rooms and dressing rooms, family room, contemporary kitchen, a 700-square-foot finished basement and more. For more information.
