Welcome to a no-expenses-spared Italianate estate nestled within one of Franklin's most prestigious gated neighborhoods. Hand-painted ceilings, authentic Venetian plaster, and curated antiques tell a story of European elegance rarely found in today’s homes. It is a true experience; and once you step inside, you may never want to leave.
At the heart of the home, the kitchen wows with a bricked barrel ceiling, Sub-Zero refrigerator, 60” Wolf range, dual dishwashers, and even a Sonic-style ice maker, perfect for effortless entertaining. A private retreat awaits in the fourth-floor Eagle’s Nest, offering sweeping views of the wooded hillside, along with a continental kitchen, full bath, office, and a large screened outdoor patio. The amenities continue to the lower level with a movie theater featuring Klipsch audio and Dolby Atmos surround sound, a 750-bottle temperature-controlled wine cellar, a pub-inspired game room with a full bar, and a wellness suite complete with a gym and steam shower. Above it all, a hand-molded, kiln-fired barrel tile roof crowns the home with a distinctive piece of architectural history, proudly registered for its significance.
Outside, resort-style grounds transport you to the Italian countryside with a saltwater pool and spa, fully equipped outdoor kitchen with wood-fired pizza oven, and a fire pit framed by a replica “ruins wall” inspired by ancient Italy. Designed for privacy and security, the estate sits on 2.5 acres and includes an elevator, hidden safe room/storm shelter, large kitchen loggia, multiple balconies, a seven-car garage, and advanced Control4 smart home technology.
For those seeking an elevated lifestyle, where privacy, elegance, and timeless beauty merge…this is home. A rare treasure for the discerning buyer who refuses to settle for anything less than extraordinary.
