History Meets Luxury - Dreamy Sweeney Cottage
Found in the heart of Leiper’s Fork Village, Sweeney Cottage is a beautifully restored 1892 home that invites you to experience the charm of Tennessee’s most vibrant creative community. With its unique history and stylish updates, this cottage is the perfect base for artists, musicians, couples, and friends looking to immerse themselves in the village’s artistic energy. Enjoy local shops, live music, and nearby dining, or simply relax and take in the village vibe from the porch or fire pit.
Built in 1892 for the Carl Sweeney family, Sweeney Cottage is filled with the echoes of those who have lived, loved, and left their mark here over the years. The home was thoughtfully renovated with a focus on preserving its legacy, while incorporating modern conveniences. This charming 2-bed, 1-bath gem, with its rich history and timeless character, is perfect for up to four guests. The primary bedroom features a queen bed, while a second queen bed is tucked away in a lofted space at the top of the stairs, separated from the primary bedroom by a beautifully preserved original door.
The chic kitchen, equipped with a mint-green Smeg refrigerator and a Bertazzoni Italian stove, is perfect for preparing home-cooked meals. The antique farm table in the dining room is surrounded by vintage décor that tells a story of its own. The bathroom boasts a deep soaking tub and a handheld shower, as well as a stunning brass console sink. The original 1892 entry doors are painted a calming pink in contrast to the original black screen doors.
Relax in the sunlit sitting areas, strum on two Gibson guitars while studying the historic photo wall in the music room, or take in the view from the porch, where you can people-watch and enjoy the charming village atmosphere. The backyard fire pit is ideal for stargazing or gathering around for s’mores after a day of exploring. Whether you’re here for inspiration, relaxation, or connection, Sweeney Cottage offers a welcoming space for it all.
What You’ll Love:
- Walk to Everything: Located in the vibrant center of Leiper’s Fork, Sweeney Cottage is just steps away from the village’s boutique shops, live music venues, and farm-to-table dining.
- Historic Charm, Modern Comfort: A lovingly restored 1892 home with antique décor, modern amenities, and an inviting atmosphere.
- Creative Space: Two Gibson guitars await your musical touch, and the peaceful vibe makes it the perfect spot for artists and songwriters.
- Outdoor Relaxation: Unwind in the private backyard around the fire pit, or relax on the front porch swing and rocking chairs, watching the village life go by and watching passersby.
What Guests Are Saying:
- "The ideal getaway—so much character, comfort, and the best location for exploring the village.”
