Country music legend Sheryl Crow is offloading a small slice of her extravagant Nashville estate for $1.8 million—more than a decade after adding the 2.2-acre parcel to her longtime Tennessee compound.
The property, which is located directly adjacent to her primary residence, was snapped up by the star for $1.24 million in 2015, around nine year after she purchased her main abode, according to records.
Crow, 64, bought both properties through a trust managed by her longtime financial manager—having chosen to relocate from a remote 150-acre farm to the Nashville estate when her children were getting ready to start preschool.
However, it appears that the singer is now ready to downsize—at least a little bit, according to a “coming soon” listing for a four-bedroom, three-bathroom dwelling that sits on a leafy parcel bordering her personal 50-acre retreat.
In its listing, which is held by Alex Sloan of Zeitlin Sotheby’s International Realty, the property is described as a “turnkey” dwelling that will allow a future owner to “move right in and enjoy the timeless lifestyle” the ranch-style abode offers.
“Greeted with grace, the residence welcomes you with gated tree lined canopy entry set back nicely from the street,” the description continues.
Spanning just over 4,500 square feet of living space, the elegant residence features several large, open-plan living spaces on the main level, including a den, a formal dining room, a large, and a modern kitchen with a sizable dine-at island, dining nook, and cozy seating area with a large stone fireplace.
Several of the living spaces open up directly to the backyard, which features a large pool, several entertaining spaces, and ample room for outdoor dining.
Two of the property’s four bedrooms can be found on the main level, including the primary suite, which features an enormous walk-in closet and a stunning bathroom, complete with a large soaking tub and a separate shower.
There is also an office space on this floor, which the listing notes could be converted into a fifth bedroom if needed.
The other two bedrooms are found on the second story, along with a full bathroom, and a “cozy loft” that offers another sizable living space.
Elegant design details are found throughout the home, which boasts vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, hardwood flooring, and top-of-the-line materials.
“Outside, the expansive property offers room to unwind and enjoy existing patios, pool, and grounds for recreation, gardening, and family fun,” the listing adds.
The description also calls attention to the property’s incredibly convenient location, which sits within a few minutes’ drive of Franklin, Brentwood, and Belle Meade—a feature that Crow herself admitted was one of the major draws for her home when she purchased it more than 20 years ago.
“The property has 50 acres—but we are also like, five minutes from a Starbucks,” she told Architectural Digest of the home’s setting.
Crow added that she had initially started looking for properties in the area when she realized she needed to be closer to the schools that her sons, Wyatt and Levi, would be attending.
“We were quite a ways out and starting preschool,” she shared. “It was time.”
It’s unclear why Crow has chosen to offload her smaller Nashville dwelling, however she seems to have kicked off preparation for the listing at the end of March, when she hosted a huge estate sale at the property, where fans were invited to peruse an array of unique items she has amassed throughout her career.
Among the piece available were a vintage chest, tables, and chair, antique mirrors, hand-knotted rugs, a striped fabric tuxedo sofa, upholstered wing back chairs, “lots of fun lamps and chandeliers,” and several leather chairs.
The songstress may well be attempting to minimize her personal admin before embarking on a very action-packed summer of concert dates.
The chart-topper is due to perform at multiple festivals throughout July and August, including Willie Nelson‘s 4th of July Picnic event in Austin, TX, as well as the Ottawa Bluesfest in Canada, before she heads to the Outlaw Music Festival in New York.
Crow has been living in Nashville for nearly two decades now, having quit Los Angeles in 2007, one year after she was diagnosed with breast cancer.
In an interview with Variety in April, she explained how her health struggles, coupled with her breakup from partner Lance Armstrong, pushed her to reevaluate her living situation.
“We all have those moments in our life where we have to pivot,” she explained. “I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2006, and I moved here in 2007.
“I think having come out of a relationship where I thought I was gonna be married and was close to the kids that were gonna be my stepkids, then got diagnosed—all three of those things made me reassess.”
Crow noted that she chose Nashville because she already had family living in the area, family that would become an integral part of her decision to adopt two children as a single mother.
“I just looked at it and thought, ’I want to put down roots; I want to have a family,'” she shared. “My sisters live here, and my family all lived within three hours, and I just decided to start phase two.”
The “Soak Up the Sun” singer adopted her older son, Wyatt, now 19, the same year that she moved to Nashville, and later welcomed Levi, now 16, in 2010.
In a 2021 interview with “Today” show host Hoda Kotb, Crow admitted that she’d had a very specific vision about what her family would look like—and initially thought her dream of being a mother would never come true after she and Armstrong split.
“The story I was telling myself limited what I thought I could have until somebody stepped in and said … Families look like all different things,” she shared.
