Curated by the acclaimed Kelley Jeanne Interiors and built with precision by Build East, this extraordinary luxury spec home brings rare artisan character to one of East Nashville’s most beloved historic neighborhoods. Tucked on a generous nearly quarter-acre lot in the coveted Lockeland Springs GPZ zone, this is a home where old-world craftsmanship meets the demands of modern living — executed without compromise.
Spanning 3,685 square feet, the four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath residence announces its intention the moment you step inside. Hand-hewn rustic beams draw the eye upward while wide-plank white oak floors ground every room in warmth and texture. Limewash tones wash the walls in layered, living color — the kind that shifts with the light and deepens with time. Intricate molding details throughout speak to a level of craftsmanship rarely found in new construction at any price point.
A dedicated private office serves the way you actually live, and a 250 SF storm shelter offers the peace of mind every family deserves. The detached three-car garage is crowned by a 953-square-foot DADU — a fully finished living space ideal as a guest suite, income-producing rental, or private studio. Then step outside. Wide, tree-lined streets, generous greenspaces, and a robust local business scene make Lockeland Springs the quintessential East Nashville neighborhood — and this home puts you at the center of all of it. Grab dinner at Lockeland Table, or fresh bread and coffee from Mama Bread, then take the dog for a run at Shelby Bottoms . Browse the boutiques at The Shoppes on Fatherland, catch live music at The Five Spot, or grab a slice at Five Points Pizza - all minutes from your front door. The EN Farmer's market rounds out a lifestyle that is as rich in community as it is in character.
This is not a home that was decorated. It was designed from the inside out — every material chosen, every detail considered, every finish a reflection of genuine artisan intention.
