About this property

Rustic Barn for the Creatives

Less than 5 miles out from Leipers Fork! Very Cool Retro 1 1/2 bedroom 1 bath Barn Loft with large living room, massive comfy sofa, beautiful antique work desk, efficiency kitchen, and wonderful views in a peaceful setting on the the original OLD NATCHEZ TRACE. Yes, the one Daniel Boone traveled down, and just a few short miles from downtown historic Franklin Tennessee. Great place to get inspiration for that new book, painting or album. It was previously a studio for a famous country songwriter. If you are looking for an experience - this is the place for you!

Horse country and rolling hills

I’ve stayed at a few places in Leiper’s over the years, this is one of the coolest. The barn is the real deal, not an pre-fab imitation. I loved seeing the horses run in the mornings. Great view to wake up to. When you drive around you can just hear nature singing the next country song. Great host!!!

Three main issues

I experienced three main issues with the unit: 1) The lack of cleanliness of the unit: There were spots/stains on the three throw rugs. Drawers in the kitchen and bathroom were not clean; located receipts/product tags and old napkins in the drawers in the kitchen; located product manuals and used products, like used tooth paste, in the bathroom drawers. The bathroom counter and drawers had products, so I did not have much room for my own products. The fridge was not completely clean with food residue and left over products in it. The mattress was stained and dirty; however, I did not discover this until later within the stay after I went to urgent care. I expected higher cleanliness, especially during COVID-19 as indicated on the profile. 2) The unit did not contain items listed in the profile: It did not have a hair dryer; when I inquired; I was told to buy one and he would reimbursement me (he did reimbursement me); it was inconvenient though as it was about 20 miles out of my way to get to a Walmart (about 10 miles each way); no blender in the unit and had to ask for one; no grill part of unit; when I inquired I was told it was part of the main house patio and I could move it over. Overall, there was a lack of convenience; did not go out of the way to make my stay enjoyable. 3) Lack of functioning items: One of the plugs in the two bathroom sinks did not work. I left early due to the above issues with property. The owner was rude; he said, "You've been a high maintenance pain in the ass." He offered me some "free advice" which was to read "The Power of Now" and A New Earth Awakening to Your Life's Purpose." He also said I was "self absorbed" in a text.

Why they chose this property

This loft is located on the Old Natchez Trace where you can still see the ruts that wagon wheels left when they were headed west back in the early 1800's and you can feel the presence of the native idians who used to make their home on the nearby Harpeth River.

What makes this property unique

peaceful with wildlife and a wonderful location close to downtown Franklin and Nashville.
an Artist dream.
