Happy New Year! 2021 is here and I’m ready to turn the calendar to a new page. Today I’ve got a brand new Feature Friday for you and I think you’ll love it. I met Anne on Instagram and had admired her new build home so much and asked her if I could feature her here and she said yes after getting her new house ready to share. It’s such a gorgeous newly built home made to look old and I know you’re going to love it. This classic Traditional style home is so timeless!
I’ll let Anne share a bit about her family with you:
LoveHouseTn consists of Anne and Jay from Hendersonville Tennessee. We have two great kids, a 13 year old boy and a 10 year old girl. We bought a brick ranch on the shores of Old Hickory Lake about 12 years ago in hopes of demolishing it and building a new home. Through many blessings, we were able to start building the current home about 2 1/2 years ago. Our theme would definitely be a new old home. We would consider our style to be traditional (classic/traditional may not be on trend, but it never goes out of style).
I started the instagram page to share our daily progress. If you go all the way back in the feed, you can see when it was just a dirt lot after the demolition. We did a lot of the work ourselves, which is why it took a full two years to build the house. It was tough to find subs to do the kind of work we wanted done, but it was worth it for the end results.
Street side view. Isn’t it gorgeous? They did a fantastic job on this newly built home. It has the charm of a historic home but all brand new and the woodwork inside is stunning. If I was building a new home, I’d want it too look very similar in finishes to this classic look.
Lake side of the home. Of course, this view and the view of the lake is why anyone builds on a lake. It’s all about outdoors.
Didn’t you love this house? I was so drawn to it when I first found Anne on Instagram. It’s the best kind of house, a newly built home to look like a historic older home. Just stunning, I love all their choices and I can see why it took 2 years to build. So many gorgeous details! Don’t forget to follow Anne on Love House TN on Instagram.
Don't Miss a Post, join my list!
Ah yes truly beautiful and thanks for sharing!! What a view – don’t think hubby and I would get any work done around the house with that lake view! ha
Love this. Living in an 1880 house, I can appreciate the historic features but how nice it is that it is all new! Very well decorated too!
What a beautiful and timeless home! Definitely one of my favorites of all that you have shared! That kitchen is stunning and I love how it’s open concept but doesn’t feel cold. So classic! Thanks for sharing and happy year to you!
Cheers!

Beautiful without all the fussiness that so many of us lean into (yes, I’m including myself in that statement). A fine example of proven classic decor that survives the decades. Thanks for sharing. I look forward to your future blog posts. Happy New Year!
Beautiful home! I love the floorplan and the decor!
I have been following this Instagram account since last year and absolutely feel in love with it and it’s style. Timeless & classic is always on point! I live very close to this town.
Once again you have brought us a beautiful timeless home. Thank you.
What is the color of the wall in the master bath?
Living in an old (Victorian) home in the U.K. countryside, I am obviously drawn to your interior. You live in a beautiful home in a lovely setting, thank you for sharing! I’ll file your pictures for inspiration!

Your home is absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing. May I ask for the source of the pendants above the island? They are perfect. After being at home for covid lockdown and recently having new health concerns, but still selling homes with new kitchens, it is time to do some changes to my 10-year-old kitchen. I am going to put a new twist on my surroundings.
Wishing you the enjoyment of home for many years to come.
Regards, Deb
HI, Deb, you’ll need to go visit Anne on Instagram and ask her the question there, she won’t see it here.
Thank you, Rhoda!
