The story
Welcome to The Phoenix House, a beautifully renovated 1900 farmhouse nestled on four private acres in Ashland City, Tennessee, just 25-30 minutes from Nashville and approximately 25-30 minutes from Clarksville. Steeped in Tennessee history, this property has been a working farm since 1794 and carries documented Civil War-era history associated with the Woodland Raiders from 1862–1863. This is a rare opportunity to own a truly historic piece of Cheatham County. The farmhouse underwent a complete renovation in 2022, thoughtfully preserving its historic character while incorporating modern updates and conveniences for today’s lifestyle. Adding to the property’s extraordinary character is a preserved 1887 schoolhouse, located just steps from the main residence. The approximately 1,200-square-foot structure retains its original interior and offers an exceptional opportunity for a studio, guest suite, workshop, office or other flexible-use space, subject to any required approvals. As an authentic piece of Cheatham County history, the schoolhouse is a remarkable feature rarely found on a private residential property. There is also a shed next door that is fully Air Conditioned and Insulated. The fully gated and fenced four-acre grounds offer privacy, mature trees, and a setting rich in local history. The property also features trees with documented ties to Rachel Jackson’s personal garden at The Hermitage, adding another fascinating connection to Tennessee’s past. The Phoenix House is more than a home—it is a rare opportunity to own a piece of authentic Tennessee heritage, where generations of history, preserved architecture, and modern living come together in one truly distinctive property. See attached list of upgrades in the disclosures. Too many to mention.
