A RARE OPPORTUNITY to join this exclusive 105-acre gated community in lovely Williamson County. The Fernvale Fishing Club is a historic 1930's-era retreat of just eight cabins in a pristine woodland surrounding a spring-fed lake just minutes from Nashville. Openings to join this idyllic enclave are very few and far between. Available for purchase for the first time in over 25 years, the Idlehour Cabin Compound (cabin site #7) consists of two cabins – a main cabin and a sleeping cottage/studio – both overlooking the beautiful 7-acre lake that is well-stocked for fishing. The Idlehour Cabin site is one of only three in the private enclave with a lakeview and one of only two with a dock in front of the cabin – making it a rare offering within a rare community. Remarkably, this sylvan Shangri-La is only 40 minutes from Midtown Nashville, 30 minutes from Green Hills/Belle Meade & 30 minutes from downtown Franklin. The Idlehour Cabin Compound recently went through numerous updates: New Roof on both structures, New Gutters & Downspouts, Freshly Painted Interior and Exterior including Trim, New GE Electric Range, Completely Renovated Bathroom, New Lighting Fixtures, New Spring House, New Pump and Pump House, Freshly Painted 500-gallon Water Tank. Additional Features: Screened Front Porch and a Large Stone Fireplace & Hearth is the STAR focal point of the living room. The dock, just steps from the main cabin, has been refurbished by our seller with new deck boards and 4 new cleats. Serene and secluded, this offering is an ideal retreat offering Nature, Wildlife, and Cascading Waterfalls so close to Nashville, Leiper’s Fork, I-840 & I-40. It is the perfect getaway from it all! You are tucked away in the woods and rarely see the other seven members, as this cannot be a main residence, strictly a retreat. You would own both cabins and 100 feet around them; the balance of the property is shared. Cash only. Financing not permitted. Hunting is not permitted.
