4008 Carters Creek Pike, Franklin, TN

5 beds | 5/3 baths | 12,048 sqft | $25,000,000

On more than fifty-two gated acres along Carters Creek Pike, a grand residence, a collector's car barn, and full equestrian facilities come together as a place built to last.

Some homes are simply bought and sold. Others become a place to return to, year after year: the long drive home, pastures glowing at sunset, horses waiting at the fence. The difference is rarely the house alone. It is the land, and the life it makes room for.

At 4008 Carters Creek Pike, that story begins at the gate. Stone pillars and iron gates open onto a long, tree-lined approach, four-board fences tracing the pastures on either side. Beyond them lie more than fifty-two acres of rolling pasture, mature timber, and quiet privacy, just moments from downtown Franklin and Leiper's Fork, and less than a mile from Southall Farm & Inn.

A House That Anchors It All

At the end of the drive, a stately three-level brick residence rises above a roundabout, its balconies looking out over the fields. Inside, hardwood floors, high ceilings, and expansive windows keep the countryside in view from nearly every room. A fireplace anchors the living room, a library-style office offers a quiet retreat, and the main-level primary suite unwinds with a soaking tub and steam shower. Upstairs, a game room with a wet bar and four ensuite bedrooms make room for guests, while a third-floor flex room opens to the top balcony.

Long Evenings Outside

Evenings here drift from the screened rear porch, where a hanging bed swing invites a slower pace, to the heated saltwater pool and spa, with its waterfall and stone decking, a putting green, and the garden close by.

Horsepower, Housed

Then there is the car barn. Climate-controlled and measuring 120' x 84', it holds more than fifty vehicles, a collector's dream by any measure. Its scale invites other visions, too: a private wellness retreat, an indoor riding arena, a basketball or pickleball court.

Life at the Barn

The horse barn holds eight stalls, including an oversized birthing stall, along with a hay loft and wash rack. An outdoor riding arena and long trails make every day an invitation to ride. Nearby, the party/guest barn sets the scene for gatherings, with a stone wood-burning fireplace, a garage door that opens to the outdoors, and two guest suites. A three-bedroom farmhouse welcomes a farm manager or guests, and a scenic pond with a bridge adds one more place to pause.

One Estate, Two Paths

The estate is offered whole, or as two distinct parcels: the over twenty-one-acre 4008 Carters Creek Pike #1, with the main residence and car barn, and the over thirty-one-acre 4004 Carters Creek Pike, with the equestrian facilities and farmhouse.

Whether it becomes a private retreat, an equestrian haven, or a gathering place for years to come, this is an estate built for the long view. Welcome to your legacy, a truly exceptional property where luxury, equestrian lifestyle, and the natural beauty of the Tennessee countryside converge.
