About This Home

There are parts of a home you can build in a year, and parts that simply take time. The gardens here have had that time. Grapevines, fruit trees, berry patches, and herb beds are established and producing, and at the heart of it sits a 1,000 square foot annual food garden on smart drip irrigation, framed by permanent cattle-panel trellises built to last. You’ll also find a shed, a bee yard, a chicken coop, and a fire pit for the evenings when you’d rather sit than work. Old-growth trees line three sides of the property, so the quiet feels like it belongs to you. The house is every bit as welcoming. All brick and built in 1995 by Old South, it rests on just under an acre where two cul-de-sacs meet in Rockvale. Inside are more than 3,000 square feet with 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and the rare comfort of a primary suite both upstairs and down, leaving room for parents, grown children, weekend guests, or simply a retreat of your own. The living room rises into vaulted ceilings and gathers around a gas fireplace with custom built-ins, with windows on three sides that carry light through the room from morning until evening. The kitchen offers the cabinetry and counter space you’ll be grateful for when the harvest comes in, and all appliances remain. A bonus room waits to become whatever you need, whether that’s an office, a studio, or a playroom, and the HVAC was repaired this year. Mornings belong to the covered front porch. Long evenings belong to the large patio out back. The property is zoned for Rockvale Elementary, Rockvale Middle, and Rockvale High, and Murfreesboro shopping and dining sit only minutes away, though you’d never guess it from how peaceful things feel out here. If you’ve been hoping for land you can truly work, you may be glad to find that so much of the work is already done.
