The Story
5906 carter lane
Multi-generational living potential tucked away on 10 acres at the edge of the Natchez Trace, just minutes from the soulful heartbeat of Leiper’s Fork, I-840 and 25 miles of hiking on the Highland Rim trail, 5906 Carter Lane offers a rare blend of artistry, privacy, & timeless Tennessee charm. Set along a secluded, tree-lined drive, this ten-acre retreat feels worlds away while remaining close to Franklin’s most beloved destinations. The landscape unfolds into wooded walking trails, a serene pond, a detached office w/ a split system for year-round comfort, a charming she-shed overlooking the water, & a workshop w/ a wood stove for projects or creative pursuits, thoughtfully placed and designed for both work & reflection. Inside, the 3BR, 2.5BA home blends rustic charm w/ modern updates. The remodeled kitchen features open shelving & a handcrafted wood bar both sourced from the property, seamlessly connecting to the main living area where a grand stone fireplace originally built by an Appalachian bear hunter, anchors the space w/ warmth & history. The primary suite rests on the main level, while the reimagined lower level offers two additional bedrooms, a full bath, & two flex rooms ideal for a music studio, teen suite, or guest quarters. The expansive attic offers abundant storage & the potential for additional flex space. Exterior details have been carefully renewed including a new roof, gutters, paint, & restored siding, complemented by fresh landscaping & the soft rhythm of forest life surrounding the home. Preliminary soil test findings suggest the existing home may be expanded to 4–5 BRs and an additional site potentially supports a 5–6 BR residence, offering strong promise for expansion. (Subject to county approval, buyer to verify) Whether envisioned as a creative sanctuary, weekend getaway or family compound, Carter Lane offers room to dream, explore, & truly live connected to nature.
