Nashville Idea House Tour

We handpicked an all-star team to design, build, and decorate the ultimate Southern farmhouse on the grounds of Fontanel, former home of country legend Barbara Mandrell.

We put together an all-star team to design the ultimate Nashville house. Located on the land of country music icon Barbara Mandrel’s estate, Fontanel, Atlanta and Peachtree City, Georgia-based architecture firm, Historical Concepts worked with uber-Southern decorator, Phoebe Howard who works out of Charlotte, North Carolina; Atlanta; and Jacksonville, Florida to create this Nashville house that can host a crowd. Mimicking an old farmhouse, the main house revolves around one large living room flanked by a hardworking kitchen on one end that boasts a laundry room with enviable laundry room shelving. The exterior boasts a wraparound front porch with extra-deep porch swings and completely a separate rear-dining porch that is connected

to the living room and dining room. Outside the main house, Historical Concepts designed several guest houses and bunkies each with their own kitchenette and porch so that company could have their own privacy. Consider this the ultimate Nashville house.
