Welcome to 5530 Baker Rd in Murfreesboro, TN! This custom home is just minutes to schools, hospitals, interstate 24, shopping, & dining; 15 minutes to Nissan in Smyrna; 25 min to Nissan HQ in Franklin & Cools Springs; and just 30 min to Nashville!
This hallmark property is ready for you to call home. Everything has been well thought out, classically designed, and functions great for all of your needs. An amazing homestead to call your own.
The 4Br/2.5 Ba home is accompanied by a 1Br/1Ba separate dwelling w/ bonus area upstairs - perfect for a man cave? Mother-in-law apt? College student apt? Business / Home Office? Art studio? Guest Suite? Air B & B?
The meandering pathway leads from the driveway/parking area to the majestic 81' long front porch, topped by a metal roof like the rest of the home. Natural light pours into the house through an abundant amount of windows on all sides of the home.
This front porch is nicely crowned by the V Groove wood ceiling. With the ceiling fans & abundant accent lighting, you can enjoy this area in the spring, summer, fall, & during the day or night! Grab some sweet tea, a rocking chair and sit a spell.
This lovely double-door entry welcomes guests to this remarkable setting. The attention to detail in the home is noticeable, and you will feel the love that went into creating such an amazing place to call home.
The brick used for the living room fireplace was salvaged from the previous homestead, built around the 1920's. Be sure to read all about the history of the property in the attached document.
From the entry doors, looking across the LR to the kitchen, you can see the large picture windows & even the small transom windows above the built-in book cases and way at the top of the roof line. Notice all the recessed lighting over the kitchen?!
This kitchen has plenty of room for multiple chefs & helpers. The designated "tasters" can sit at the bar and enjoy the show. Shiplap accents the wall, and large sliding glass doors lead out to the rear covered patio.
The carefully chosen finishes in the home give it a very welcoming & comfortable feel. Hard wood floors are throughout the main level AND upstairs! Enjoy cooking with a gas cooktop & stainless steel double ovens.
The leather-finished granite looks amazing and keeps the country charm and feel of the home. Look at all the cabinet and drawer space in here! All of the lights in the home are LED, even the small bulbs in the light fixtures!
A great place for home schooling or a temporary home office, this area off the kitchen looks out over the back patio. How many home offices have pendant lights? Across from the permanent desk is the entrance to the walk-in pantry.
Admit it. You know you love this walk-in pantry. It is massive!! So much storage for your small appliances, dry goods, canning, etc. The "back up" refrigerator/freezer stays with the home as does all the shelving and drawers.
Though this is a formal space for the dining table, the ambiance of the home makes it more of a place to spend time & share stories, play games, eat and enjoy one another's company. A special place where memories are made.
There is natural wood shiplap in the dining room art nook salvaged from the walls of the previous homestead. So cool that the effort to preserve the history of the area was made & tastefully placed in this home!
Guests will enjoy the whimsical feeling in the half bath. The location in the home is great for privacy and accessibility.
Do you have four-legged family members? They have their own space, too, complete w/ crating area, food & water area, and extra storage closets. If you're pet free, this is a great drop-zone just off the garage entrance to the home.
Welcome to your master suite. This room sits on the rear of the home, away from all the action on the main floor. A sanctuary to retreat to at the end of a long day. The lovely barn door can close off the bathroom suite.
As you walk into the master bathroom suite, you cannot help but notice the soaking tub, tiled floors, and separate dual vanities.
To the right as you walk in the master bathroom you will find a make-up vanity (on the left of the picture), "his" closet down on the right, a private commode across from the closet, and one of the sink vanities.
This oversized shower is encased in marble, accented w/ a transom window for natural light, & topped off w/ a Rainfall shower head. The glass door allows the beauty of the stone to be seen, but the placement of the shower head allows for privacy, too
All of the ceilings downstairs are 10' high, allowing for the taller, 8-panel doors. Across the bedroom to the right is another closet that leads through to the laundry room. Plenty of space in this 14x17 room for any combination of furniture.
If you are the Launderer for your family, you will enjoy this space more than you should. Sink is at the end, beneath the window, & the cabinets above will hold all the necessary supplies. How about the long folding counter atop MORE cabinets?
Sure to please the dueling siblings (or guests) are two bedrooms upstairs - exact duplicates of each other - blessed with large windows, built-in desk tops, hard wood floors, and 9' ceilings.
Each bedroom has plenty of room for all different arrangements & types of furniture, and they each have walk-in closets, and a private cubby area behind the bookcase.
Bedroom #4 is currently being used as a workout area, but this has the most amazing amount of space for a walk-in closet if you chose to use it as a bedroom. Ceiling fans are in every bedroom.
This is the full bathroom upstairs that serves the three bedrooms. It has two identical vanities, separated by a large linen closet. Closed off by a door is the private commode and tiled shower across from the linen closet.
A second laundry area is upstairs. Although this washer/dryer set has never been hooked up or used since moving in, the set remains with the home. More cabinet space! YAY!
The exterior of the home is Hardie Board Siding atop a brick skirt enclosing the crawl space. This large pathway leads from the parking area, between the second living quarters and the main house, and out to the back yard.
Sitting off the kitchen is this glorious covered patio with tiled flooring. A large ceiling fan to keep the breeze moving through, and plenty of space to set up for large or small gatherings, this spot might be your favorite one.
Notice the metal strip in the ceiling? That is from the metal roof of the previous homestead! It again adds to that farmhouse feeling and charm. Enjoy a crisp, fall evening w/friends around this wood-burning fireplace with gas starter.
What's better than fresh produce? There are TWELVE raised beds about to yield loads of unique cucumbers, okra, peppers, beans, zucchini, tomatoes, carrots, onions, chives, peas, sweet basil, dill, parsley - ask for the list!
Even the garden is artfully done. These trellises will make an amazing walkway through the garden as vines climb up and over. Plenty of space to move between boxes and tend to your garden!
Every gardener needs a greenhouse to start their veggies & flowers, right!?
Those stones that create the fire pit area? Those are hand-hewn limestone blocks, salvaged from the walls of the cellar house from the previous homestead on the property. This is also a good view for proximity between the two living quarters.
So this building can really be whatever you need it to be. The insulated & windowed garage door leads directly into the living room area and can be raised. It has its own private entrance and garage.
The wood salvaged from the walls of the previous homestead was used here above the cabinets. Finished concrete floors are throughout the main level of what was originally designed as a man-cave, but it could be so many other things!
This area faces the driveway and would be considered the bedroom with a large closet. It is currently used as an office with built-in desktops, but could also make a fantastic art room with the high ceilings and natural light.
The bathroom is on the main level and is finished with this striking tile shower and granite sink.
There is so much room upstairs in the secondary living quarters. If one wanted to add a closet in this almost 400 sqr ft of space, it could be considered a second bedroom. Or, make it a home gym, or yoga studio......
This is the garage area in the 2nd living quarters. The double door is on one side, & a single garage door is across from it, so you can pull a boat or trailer straight through from the front driveway to the back yard.
Sitting along the driveway into the property is this workshop and concrete pad. It has electricity and can be locked.
The overhang of the workshop is a fun place to hang out, but can also be used to house farm equipment or trailers, or be turned into run-in shelter for animals.
Over 1400 sqr ft of space in this workshop! Concrete slab flooring. Great windows along the roofline, & insulated ceiling. Could be easily converted to house animals if needed, or store classic cars.. or boats... or have your own wood-working shop.
Everyone is looking for acreage near the heart of town - well this is it! With 16+/- acres you have a great buffer around you for peace, quiet, & privacy, but you still have a neighborhood feel and access to be involved if you choose to do so.
This acreage is just off the back yard. Between this and the acreage along the side of the driveway, it is enough to house a few animals of your choosing since there aren't ANY restrictions on the property!
The property is served mostly by electric, but also has an owned propane tank for things like the tankless water heater, or the dual fuel zone HVAC system (divided into 3 zones, & uses the propane only when auxiliary heat is needed - very efficient).
The secondary living quarters has four electric mini split HVAC units. Of course finding firewood on your own 16+/- acres will be cost-efficient as well. Be sure to view the drone video link in the listing for more aerial shots!
Gathering will be easy in this 17x25 Living Room. The home's open floorplan allows for everyone to be part of what is going on. The Newell post from the original homestead grounds the staircase to the secondary BRs upstairs. Come take a look at it!
