DESIGN, this exceptional home is convenient to shopping and outdoor recreation and lies just 15 minutes south of downtown Nashville, a lively community known worldwide for its talented musicians and country music heritage.
“Nashville is so much more than a thriving mecca for musicians. The city has developed a trendy food scene, diverse nightlife and an exceptional quality of life for its residents,” said Jack Thomasson, HGTV professional house planner. “With all the excitement of a bustling city combined with easy access to rolling green hills and lush natural beauty, Nashville is on the cutting edge for what ‘smart living’ means today.”
The HGTV Smart Home 2014 is built to meet the Consumer Electronics Association’s (CEA) TechHome Rating System (THRS), a nationally-recognized specification for residential technology infrastructure. The home also has earned a Silver Level certification from the National Green Building Standard™.
