This beautiful sanctuary was custom designed by Noble Johnson Architects, perched on a hillside with sweeping countryside views over Columbia, a small and quiet town just south of Nashville, Tennessee. Created to maximize views, this dwelling offers some fabulous amenities such as covered parking, a stone deck, and a swimming pool in the backyard. Step inside, soaring ceilings feel open and airy while reclaimed wood decor infuses warmth.

The layout of this dwelling wraps around the driveway, with the main residence on one side and a two-car garage on the other. An expansive front porch invites one up to the house while providing shelter from the elements. There is ample space for a small sitting area to relax and entertain guests.

What We Love: This hillside sanctuary offers its inhabitants a warm and cozy atmosphere for family living and entertaining. From the moment of entry, a relaxed farmhouse vibe welcomes you into this spectacular home. We are loving the mix of elegance and farmhouse to create a comfortable living environment. The architects did a fantastic job of maximizing the views while blurring the lines between indoors and out.
