Sloan Valley Farms Launch – Estate Home Community

October 5, 2020 By Nancy McNulty Leave a Comment

In a year when so many things have been cancelled or postponed, Forest Home Media has been thrilled to support our very busy home industry clients including the Baird Graham Company’s launch of Sloan Valley Farms in beautiful Leiper’s Fork, Tennessee. 

BGC has made a name for itself in building stunning homes throughout the Nashville and Franklin area.  Forest Home Media assisted in the company’s website relaunch, reactivating Instagram and the announcement of the new estate home community including a video overview.  Here’s more on the exciting new community.

Launch of $27 Million, Leiper’s Fork Estate Home Community

FRANKLIN, Tenn.—-(September 23, 2020) Weaving a community of fine homes in a historic Tennessee hamlet, developer and builder Baird Graham has broken ground on the estate home neighborhood, Sloan Valley Farms, located in Leiper’s Fork outside of Nashville.

 

An homage to the original owners, the George Sloan family of Steeplechase fame, Sloan Valley Farms, off Carl Road, is comprised of nine home sites surrounded by multiple acres and created in collaboration with notable Southeastern architects and interior designers said Graham.

“Sloan Valley Farms is the culmination of a dream to create a community of well-crafted homes with distinct architectural styles surrounded by the privacy and beauty of the Middle Tennessee hills,” Graham said.  “The site prep for the neighborhood has been completed and we are pleased to release renderings and details on the first four homes.”

 

Graham is collaborating on the first four homes with top Southeastern architects including:  Catherine Sloan, Catherine Sloan Architect, Nashville, Jeffrey Dungan, Jeffrey Dungan Architects, of Mountain Brook, Alabama, and Chris Reebals, Christopher Architecture & Interiors, of Birmingham, Alabama. Sloan is creating two of the first four homes.  He is also working with talented interior designers Rachel Halvorson, Rachel Halvorson Designs, Lauren Moore, Modern Remains, and Joanna Goodman, Christopher Architecture & Interiors.

 

“The land the homes will be built on is spectacular and our team is bringing a depth and architectural beauty to each home with a caliber of excellence and uniqueness, setting Sloan Valley Farm into a league of its own,” Graham said.

Sloan Valley Farms overlooks 80 acres of protected wetlands and is adjacent to Murphy Fork Creek.  Graham said the homes are each surrounded by acreage ranging from six to fifteen acres depending on the home site – all with incomparable views, beginning at just over $3 million.  The neighborhood Realtor of record, Kellen Moore, Helton Real Estate Group, said the project represents an over $27 million investment in the area.

“The Nashville area has not seen anything like Sloan Valley Farms in years and it is an unparalleled opportunity to have an incredible home in a stunning neighborhood while being a few miles from Leiper’s Fork, historic downtown Franklin and within five miles of Interstate 840,” Moore said. “Baird is an incredible builder and his passion and sincerity make each of his homes unique.  Partnering with top architects and interior designers make Sloan Valley Farms a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”

 

The design continuity of the neighborhood will be English Country with Southern accents helping it weave into the Leiper’s Fork architectural landscape using a variety of materials including stone, cedar shake and slate roofs.

 

“The home sites provide options to overlook a pasture or be wrapped by hills as well as two homes situated on a bluff.  This is an extraordinary opportunity for peace, privacy and a slice of paradise within a quick ride to Leiper’s Fork, historic downtown Franklin and the interstate,” Graham said.

 

For more information on the future Sloan Valley Farms homes, contact Moore at 615-948-0376 and visit www.bgc-construction.com to learn more about the neighborhood and home sites.

Influencer Event History

In 2013, Forest Home Media partnered with Southern Living’s PR team for a media and influencer event at the Southern Living Idea House in Nashville, built by FHM client Castle Homes. The afternoon, with rock star decorator Phoebe Howard and Southern Living favs, former editor Lindsay Bierman and Southern Living garden expert Carmen Johnston, led to establishing a powerful marketing formula for clients. Combining smart bloggers and influencers with talented media writers has proven to be very impactful for home projects throughout the Southeast.

Lindsay Bierman and the PR Team for 2013 Southern Living Idea House Project hosted a blogger, influencer and media event prior to the house opening. Pictured with Bierman are former SL PR Director Jennifer Zawandanski, Zan Martin, president of Martin & Co. representing Fontanel & Nancy McNulty, Forest Home Media, representing the builder, Castle Homes.

Forest Home Media has since helped launch or promote a ton of premier home events including the Nashville Symphony Show House and last year’s Nashville Home Show, returning again this September, as well as the HGTV Urban Oasis House 2017 with designer Brian Patrick Flynn.

Nashville Designer Show House PR

March 6, 2017 By Nancy McNulty

The House for Hope Designer Show House, built by FHM client Carbine & Associates, has officially opened its doors for tour daily through March 12 from noon to 5 p.m. in the new boutique community Southern Preserve in Franklin, Tennessee. Forest Home Media is proud to be the PR company of record for the year’s top home event!

Home Lifestyle Specialist

For over two decades, I’ve had the pleasure of working with talented builders and designers with the goal of inspiring tour visitors and benefiting many worthy causes.  The House for Hope takes all this up 1,000 notches with 15 Southeastern design tastemakers and Carbine dedicating the home sale proceeds to area children’s charities – estimated at $100,000.

House for Hope History

The entire project is a way to honor Carbine & Associates’ 30th anniversary of building. Instead of a big party, however, Carbine’s project will have a huge impact on our community and I can’t be more proud of this company. They have done so much over the years including building an Operation FINALLY HOME for a decorated war veteran in Kings’ Chapel community.  Here’s a video we put together with company president, James Carbine.

Rock Star Design Tastemakers

Dana Tucker, FHM creative consultant who originally co-founded the company, helped assemble the team of design tastemakers from a four state area.  Here is a clever video we put together highlighting the room designers. And, kudos to FHM New Media Manager Geinger Hill, a video and photography wizard!

We work with soooo many great media outlets and bloggers throughout the Southeast. Nationally, the collaboration with Domino was a result of regular PR trips to NYC to build these relationships.  Check out the PR recap I did for my monthly column for The Southern C here, Modern Day PR:  Leveraging Creativity To Ignite Buzz. It is all about this project.

Domino’s Associate Social Media Manager Alyssa Clough came down to attend the media blogger preview and first stopped by WTVF’s Talk of the Town.  She then hosted an incredible Facebook Live on Domino’s page previewing the home and meeting several of the talented designers in their rooms.  Check out the tour below which begins with Kristen Carbine.

We have such a terrific Nashville area pool of talented bloggers and media and would love to add to it. And,  I just have to share the gorgeous, latest issue of Greater Nashville House & Home magazine which features the show house’s covered porch by J & K Design Studio.   Forest Home Media is now celebrating its fifth anniversary and this project is just the icing on the cake! Come see us!
