This Spacious Forest Hills Retreat represents a High-Potential Investment Opportunity, listed at a List Price of $980,000, which aligns with the $980,000 Fair Market Value. While the home maintains a Condition Rating of 4, the significant 2.25-acre lot and recent infrastructure investments in drainage and retaining walls provide a stable foundation for modernization. Featuring a 4,303 sqft layout and proximity to top-rated Percy Priest Elementary, this property is an ideal acquisition for Value-Add Investors or Owner-Occupants seeking to customize a private, hilltop estate.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1988 (36 years old) with a kitchen renovation likely performed 15-20 years ago featuring stainless appliances and granite counters. While the main living areas are functional, the unfinished basement sections and 'AS/IS' listing status indicate the need for modernization and minor repairs.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 98010, living area = 4303.
Situated on a 2.25-acre wooded hilltop in the prestigious Forest Hills area, this property offers a rare combination of secluded, retreat-like living while remaining minutes from downtown Nashville, Vanderbilt, and Brentwood.
With over 4,300 square feet, five bedrooms, dual living spaces, and two laundry areas, the home provides exceptional flexibility for multi-generational living, guest accommodations, or a comprehensive work-from-home setup.
The property is being sold strictly in as-is condition, which may necessitate additional buyer budget for interior cosmetic updates or deferred maintenance not covered by recent infrastructure work.
While the elementary school is highly rated at an 8/10, the assigned middle and high schools carry lower ratings of 5 and 4 respectively, which may be a consideration for families prioritizing long-term public education performance.
