The estate at 4410 Truxton Place,situated on nearly 2.5 acres in Belle Meade, is a perfect example of thoughtful design. 

A hedge of stately backyard magnolia trees adds to the property’s serenity and privacy. The screened-in porch boasts not just a fireplace, but a barrel ceiling with built-in heaters. The primary bedroom offers dual bathrooms and closets, ensuring everyone has exactly as much space as they need. Acclaimed architect Edwin Keeble originally designed the 1970 home. And when the current owners purchased it in 2015, they worked with Pfeffer Torode architects to do a thorough renovation and addition, which included a pool and pool house. Gavin Duke of Duke Design Group handled the landscaping. 

The just over 10,000-square-foot home boasts five bedrooms — plus five full bathrooms and three half baths in the main house. The beautifully appointed pool house, which is over 900 square feet, has a full kitchen, one bedroom and one full bath.

While large, the house feels like a home meant to be lived in, with lots of comfortable rooms, dual home offices, a flex space and even a cozy reading nook — complete with draperies you can draw to tune out the world. The kitchen, abounding with light-blue and cream cabinetry, features a spacious quartzite island, Wolf range and Subzero refrigerator. 

Other highlights include an elevator in the main home, a four-car garage, an irrigation system, a back-up generator that covers the house, and a security system with 13 cameras on property. The backyard oasis offers a dreamy outdoor shower — plus a gas firepit and outdoor kitchen perfect for entertaining. The saltwater pool and in-ground chlorine spa are heated, and both have retractable covers and auto-fill features. As is the case across the property, no detail has been overlooked.
