Affectionately known as the Hidden Treehouse, this Franklin retreat has been a creative sanctuary since its beginning. Designed and adored by its original owner, a renowned Brooklyn artist and gallery owner, the home was imagined as a place where architecture, color, and nature exist in harmony. Every paint tone was chosen with intention, echoing the hues of the Tennessee forest, allowing the structure to blend seamlessly into its wooded setting. Inside, striking rooflines, soaring ceilings, and walls of windows create a sense of volume and light. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the main living space, while a sculptural wood staircase leads to a loft framed with skylights and built-in cabinetry. The remodeled kitchen features two-tone cabinetry, herringbone backsplash, and stainless steel appliances, seamlessly connecting to the dining area and out to a rebuilt deck with pergola. The private quarters balance style and comfort, with bedrooms wrapped in large windows and baths updated with modern tile, new fixtures, and barn-door entries. A dedicated laundry space, built-ins, and an oversized two-car garage add function to the home’s artful form. With fresh paint inside and out and extensive foundation work by USS, this property has been both loved and fortified. The approach sets the tone: a scenic drive through rolling countryside that opens to several private acres alive with birdsong and cicadas. Privacy is abundant yet convenience is never sacrificed, with Westhaven and downtown Franklin only minutes away. More than a house, this is a retreat, a master class in design and inspiration. For those seeking something rare, soulful, and deeply connected to its landscape, the Hidden Treehouse is ready for its next chapter. Evenings bring cicadas through the trees, mornings unfold with light shifting across the loft and living room, and the rebuilt deck invites long dinners under the pergola. This is a property not only lived in but experienced, where daily rhythms feel
