Alan Jackson house: Where does Alan Jackson live?
Jackson spent over two years building himself and his family one of the most magnificent and pricey homes in the whole Nashville area after becoming one of the most popular and wealthy country performers of his time.
His magnificent Sweetbriar antebellum estate, which measures 18,622 square feet, was based on Tara in Gone With the Wind.
Jackson’s other real estate interests have included a magnificent lakefront property in his native Georgia.
He also possessed an opulent 22,012-square-foot hilltop residence outside of Nashville, which he sold in March 2021.
Jackson’s 135-acre plantation-style mansion, which is 18,622 square feet in size, is located in Franklin, Tennessee, a wealthy rural neighborhood west of Nashville.
Formal dining and living rooms, a home office with maple floors, a roomy family area with 22-foot ceilings, a gourmet kitchen with an adjacent breakfast room, and a glass-enclosed porch on the first floor are all included in this amazing home.
On the second story, there are four bedroom suites, a fitness area, and nanny quarters. A home theater, a custom pub, and a game area are on the third floor.
The house sold for $28 million in 2010, making it one of Nashville’s most expensive private home transactions.
