Looks like the real estate market in Nashville isn’t hurting with big name CEO’s and country music stars buying up multi-million dollar homes in the private gated communities.
The newest country music star to move into one of those million dollar homes – Dierks Bentley. In an article in a local publication we are given most of the details of the sale of this home.
Buyer: James H. Cheek IV, trustee
Sale price: $1.425 million
Sellers: Jackie Miller & Robert Stutts
Sellers’ agent: Jack S. Miller (Bob Parks Realty)
Buyers’ agent: Laura McSpadden (Fridrich & Clark Realty)This Mission-style stucco home was built around 1930. In addition to renovating the existing structure, Miller & Stutts added a guest house and saltwater pool.
Public records don’t spell out whom Jamie Cheek represented as trustee in the purchase, but there are clues. We know he is a partner in the business-management firm Flood, Bumstead, McCready & McCarthy, whose personnel routinely serve as trustees on real estate purchases by country stars. We can see that whoever drafted the deed of trust on the $825,000 mortgage the purchaser took out on this property helpfully added the header “BENTLEY” at the top of each page.
A source on Music Row confirms to us that the new owner is, in fact, one-time Vanderbilt SAE fratboy turned country hit-spinner Dierks Bentley.
If anyone remembers seeing Dierks in his CMT Cribs special you will remember that this is a big move up for him and his family. They had a very quaint 1800 square foot home they resided in before. If you didn’t catch the show you can view it on CMT.com.
