2016 Valley View Rd

This LEED Platinum–certified home blends sustainability, craftsmanship, and agricultural abundance. Recognized with a Green Star Award by the Mid-TN U.S. Green Building Council, it was thoughtfully designed for energy efficiency, resilience, and connection to the land. A rare highlight is the mature blueberry grove, producing hundreds of pounds annually. The property also features a 5-year-old chestnut orchard with 25 trees, fenced fields, muscadine grape vines, and established gardens—ideal for homesteading or farm-to-table living. The home includes three EV charging stations and a Ford Home Integration System that allows a compatible Ford truck to serve as a backup generator. A 20' x 40' two-bay farm shed with an enclosed shipping container provides excellent storage or workshop space. Constructed with reclaimed materials throughout, the home showcases custom oak kitchen cabinetry crafted from deconstructed Rutherford County horse barns (including one built prior to the Civil War) and recycled glass countertops. Porcelain tile floors are positioned to capture winter sun while remaining shaded in summer for passive efficiency. The main level features a cathedral ceiling, open floor plan, and expansive views of rolling hills and pasture. Built-in wall speakers enhance the living and kitchen areas. The primary suite offers reclaimed oak floors, dual vanities, tiled walk-in shower, and a south-facing porch overlooking dry-stacked stone terraces and gardens. The lower level opens to grade and includes a sitting room or office with a Morso wood-burning stove, laundry room, built-in root cellar, full bath, and second bedroom with walk-out patio. Exterior finishes include locally harvested fieldstone and Nichiha siding made with 60% recycled materials. 291 square foot root cellar in basement not included in square footage. A truly distinctive, high-performance home built for long-term, healthy living. See 3D tour. First showings at open house 3/1: 2-4p.
