Description

***First showings at OPEN HOUSE - Saturday at Sill Country, 06/14 from 1-3pm*** Welcome to Sill Country—an extraordinary Hendersonville estate where history, privacy, and possibility converge. Originally constructed in 1832 as a log cabin, this one-of-a-kind property spans 12 secluded acres and has been expanded over time into a nearly 6,000 sq ft retreat that marries timeless craftsmanship with thoughtful modern touches. The original hand-hewn poplar logs remain exposed throughout the home, offering a rare and authentic connection to 19th-century Tennessee history. The main residence features new appliances and a new roof, preserving its historic charm while supporting comfortable, everyday living. Beyond the main home, you'll find over 4,000 additional square feet of living space—including a 3-bedroom guest house with new carpet and appliances, a pool house, and two barn apartments with a workshop—ideal for multigenerational living, extended guests, or income-producing use. The expansive rec room, currently styled with a vintage general store façade, offers incredible flexibility with full kitchen, large walk-in closet and full bath with large shower—it could serve as a second living area, creative studio, or attached apartment. Whether you’re envisioning a boutique bed and breakfast, an intimate wedding venue, or a private family compound with room to expand, Sill Country offers a rare opportunity to create something lasting. Sill Country isn’t just a home—it’s a legacy. 1% lender credit with use of preferred lender. See media for floorplans and features. Video to come later this week
