Heavy metal musician David Mustaine listed his greater Nashville area equestrian estate this month; the Megadeth singer, guitarist, and co-founder is looking for $2.498 million for the property.
The property was custom-built in 2003. Inside and out, it keeps to the comfortably familiar, using a few eye-catching materials along the way; the padauk plank flooring is exceptionally pretty, with lovely contrasting grain. Dark wood accents, muted tones, and the occasional black ceiling combine for a somewhat moody execution.
The interiors begin with a series of common areas that flow outward from a central colonnade hallway. The most inviting space is the kitchen, where farmhouse style meets an open layout, and transitions neatly to a sunny dayroom.
The more unusual features of the house include a library with extensive built-ins, and an elevator. All 3 bedrooms are suites, including a master with separate his and hers baths. The property exterior extends to 11 acres, with a barn, equine accommodations, and a utility shed amid the tree-dotted pastures.
