2016 Valley View Rd, Joelton, TN 37080

This home and property provides the ability to enjoy the views with spacious windows, grow your own fruits and vegetables, and live with a smaller footprint in many ways. The home was constructed with reclaimed materials throughout, including oak kitchen cabinets created from deconstructed Rutherford County horse barns (including one built before the Civil War), and kitchen and bath countertops made with recycled glass. Dark brown porcelain tile floors are warmed by sunlight in the winter, and are completed shaded in the summer as part of the planned energy efficiency of the home. The first floor features a cathedral ceiling and an open floor plan, with views of fenced fields, hills, and the 5-year old chestnut orchard with 25 trees. Four stereo speakers are built into the walls of the living area and kitchen space. The mudroom on the east side of the home has reclaimed poplar paneling on the walls and ceiling. The powder room includes a sink cabinet fashioned from an antique Victorian-style sideboard. The master bedroom offers reclaimed oak floors and a southfacing porch that overlook dry-stacked rock wall terracing and flower beds, and mature muscadine grape vines. The suite includes a tiled walk-in shower and dual vanities. Downstairs, which opens to the south-facing ground level of the home, includes a sitting room/office area with an energy-efficient wood-burning Morso stove, laundry room, and a built-in root cellar that can be used for storing potatoes, canned tomatoes and blueberry jam. There is a full bath with a tub adjacent to the second bedroom which provides a walk-out patio for early morning bird-watching or late night star-gazing. The exterior of the home is constructed of field stone harvested near Cookeville, TN and Nichiha siding which is made of 60% post-consumer by-products and recycled materials.
