Compass proudly presents an Ember property spanning 5.27 acres, pairing a distinctive landscape with thoughtfully placed spaces that invite you to enjoy the land long before you build.

150± acres. Three homes. One extraordinary Middle Tennessee compound, offered for the first time in nearly three decades. Charon Lane Farm gathers 150.20± contiguous acres across the Williamson-Maury county line in the Leiper's Creek corridor south of Leiper's Fork: open pasture and rotation fields rolling into mature hardwood draws, a working landscape with multiple elevated build sites, and a full set of farm infrastructure already in place. Three residences stand along the lane. The 3,403 SF main home (4 BR, 3 BA plus bonus room) anchors its own 15 acres with a vaulted great room, wood-burning brick fireplace, walls of glass facing the pasture, and a kitchen built for a crowd. The purpose-built passive solar house (2 BR, 2.5 BA — 2,376 SF, 1997) is designed around a window-walled gallery under wood ceilings with a spiral stair — a guest house with real presence, a residence for the next generation, or income while you plan. The circa-1850 farmhouse (3 BR, 2 BA — 2,618 SF) stands under its red metal roof beside the original tobacco barn, joined by a hand-hewn log barn, pole building and additional barn supporting a cattle or horse operation from day one. Public water serves all three homes and reaches the paved Fairview Road frontage, fiber internet is available, each home has its own septic, and FEMA Zone X covers every parcel. Greenbelt is enrolled in both counties — roughly $3,500/yr in taxes on the entire holding. Fifteen minutes to Spring Hill, 25 to Leiper's Fork, 35 to downtown Franklin, under an hour to Nashville and BNA. Williamson County acreage is zoned to Heritage Elementary/Middle and Independence High. Move the whole family in at closing — or run cattle, roam the hardwoods, and build the next generation's homes on ground that's already yours. Offered as one unit; four parcels, two counties, one farm. Homes convey as-is. Shown by appointment. Acreage per tax records, subject to survey; buyer to verify all information.
