Welcome to Nashville! Wanna know a secret? You’re now part of an elite group who has the MOST EXCLUSIVE tour of Nashville that exists. If you’re anything like us, all the celebrity homes and hot spots can be a bit overwhelming. That’s why we curated this tour of our best-kept secrets. Although we know you’ll love each stop, if there’s something you don’t want to see, just skip it! We won’t get our feelings hurt :) We’ve broken the tour down into 3 digestible parts, each with a Google Maps link where you can see all the stops on that part of the tour. We’ve also listed the tour location by location with extra detailed info, including our legendary VR VIP tips! The duration of this tour depends on how long you spend at each stop. If you rush, it can be done in 3 hours or so, but that’s no fun. You can't rush awesome. If you don’t have the full 3-4 hours, just pick your top stops and skip the rest! We love seeing your photos, so feel free to share them with us on social media. If you see a celebrity or get lucky enough to snap a photo with one, tag us in the pic for a special shout out, a feature on VelvetRopes.com, and maybe even a prize! Be safe and respectful, have fun, and enjoy your glimpse behind the curtain of celebrity life! And please remember, not all the homes are visible from the street, but it’s still exhilarating to see the gates and to be so close!

Late 2020 Edition © Velvet Ropes, Inc. Page 2 of 10 NASHVILLE TOUR: Part 1 of 3 OPEN PART 1 IN GOOGLE MAPS VR VIP Tip! We have you starting near the heart of Nashville at Taylor Swift’s, so depending on your plans, check out some of the hot spots Downtown on Broadway. Lots of celebrity-owned joints there! More details in the hot spot section below. 1. Taylor Swift Penthouse - 900 20th Avenue South PH#10, Nashville, TN 37212 OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES Taylor lives in a massive penthouse unit here at the Adelicia. It was quite convenient given Big Machine Records, her former record label turned enemy, is down the street. VR VIP Tip! Just down 21st Avenue S is a cute spot called Fido. Locals know it as T Swift's favorite! Next to that is Pancake Pantry, a Nashville staple that’s always packed. 2. John Rich House - 3432 Love Circle, Nashville, TN 37212 OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES On your way to Big Kenny’s, the GPS will tell you to turn on Sharondale Drive, but the sign says Chesterfield. 3. Big Kenny House - 2325 Golf Club Lane, Nashville, TN 37215 OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES 4. Amy Grant & Vince Gill House - 515 Park Center Avenue, Nashville, TN 37205 OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES Amy & Vince’s house is on a dead end street without much space to turn around. Please be respectful of them as well as their neighbors. 5. Todd Chrisley House - 806 Lynnwood Blvd, Nashville, TN 37205 OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES Late 2020 Edition © Velvet Ropes, Inc. Page 3 of 10 If you’re expecting to see what they show on TV, think again! They have significantly changed the home, starting with massive shrubs and gates. The next 2 homes are close but there is no meaningful view. Taylor’s home is hidden - Keith and Nicole’s is in a gated community. Because of that, they are not included in the Google Maps link for Part 1 of the tour, but you can still check them out if you wish by circling back on Lynnwood and turning right on Harding Place - less than 1 mile on the right you’ll pass Taylor’s, which is behind a red brick wall (white house). Keith and Nicole’s community, Northumberland, is right past Taylor’s on the right. 6. Taylor Swift House - 2201 Harding Place, Forest Hills, TN 37215 OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES 7. Keith Urban & Nicole Kidman House - 29 Northumberland, Nashville, TN 37215 OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES VR VIP Tip! If interested, not far from here is where Hayden Panettiere lived during her time shooting “Nashville.” She has since sold the home. Also nearby is the famed Bluebird Cafe where Taylor Swift was reportedly discovered and where every country star under the sun has performed. It’s a great spot for sightings, too, but it’s tough to get in! And lastly, the Green Hills Mall is a hotbed for celebrities as it’s one of the few high-end places to shop in the area. More info at the Hot Spot section below. 8. Tim McGraw & Faith Hill House - 1152 Crater Hill Drive, Nashville, TN 37215 OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES Head’s up - there is no view of Tim & Faith’s home - just the gate and driveway at the end of the cul-de-sac. But, the drive up into the neighborhood is nice and fancy! VR VIP Tip! Once on Hillsboro Pike, keep an eye out on the right for a gated community called BANCROFT. Kristin Cavallari and Jay Cutler lived there before moving to the home that’s later on the tour. 9. Sheryl Crow House - 6242 Hillsboro Pike, Nashville, TN 37215 OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES Sheryl also owns the home next door at #6238. You’ll see the driveway & gate here for the main home, but there’s a back entrance too. It’s the first stop on Part 2 of the tour. Continue on next page... Late 2020 Edition © Velvet Ropes, Inc. Page 4 of 10 NASHVILLE TOUR: Part 2 of 3 OPEN PART 2 IN GOOGLE MAPS 1. Sheryl Crow House (Rear Entrance) - 1 Goldstone Court, Nashville, TN 37215 OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES 2. Ronnie Dunn House - 2281 Old Hickory Blvd, Nashville, TN 37215 OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES The GPS navigates to a Chickering Road address, but Ronnie’s home is on the left and set pretty far off the road. He has actually listed the home for $7.8M. Note: You’ll need to turn around after Ronnie’s to continue the tour. VR VIP Tip! NFL star DeMarco Murray owns a home in a gated community nearby. It’s way out of sight, so no reason to drive by, but you can see photos at the link above. OPTIONAL DETOUR Now, if you’re interested in a significant detour (1 hour total), you can check out the homes of Brian Kelley of Florida Georgia Line, Thomas Rhett, and Jake Owen’s former home - which is also Loretta Lynn’s former home. They are all pretty well hidden, but Brian Kelley’s has a really cool fence made of railroad ties. The drive through the country is kinda cool, too. Plus, on the way is Loveless Cafe, the PERFECT spot for a bite to eat. It’s a local hot spot and one of our favs! Full disclosure, there isn't much visibility of the homes. If you want to take the detour, this Google Maps link will navigate you from Ronnie Dunn’s to all 3 homes on the detour, then back to Miley’s to continue the tour. 3. Miley Cyrus House - 242 Arrowhead Road, Franklin, TN 37069 OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES Late 2020 Edition © Velvet Ropes, Inc. Page 5 of 10 Miley’s house sits on a LONG driveway, so please DO NOT proceed past the lake with a fountain on the right. The signs that say “private road” means turn around ;) 4. Keith Urban & Nicole Kidman Former House - 2032 Old Hillsboro Rd, Franklin, TN OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES The GPS will say 2060 Old Hillsboro Road. Check out the gate to the right. VR VIP Tip! Puckett's Leiper's Fork is quite the stop. It doesn't look like much, but it’s a legend among locals for live music. The shops in Leiper’s Fork are super cute, too! 5. Kristin Cavallari House - 5005 Lilly Valley Trail, Franklin, TN OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES The street that gets you to their gate is tiny. There is a slight view of their gate, but no view of their home. 6. Wynonna Judd House - 5601 Pinewood Road, Franklin, TN 37064 OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES 7. Carrie Underwood House - 5595 Pinewood Road, Franklin, TN 37064 OPEN IN GOOGLE MAPS • VIEW PICS ON VELVET ROPES Carrie’s driveway is to the left of Wynonna’s. They completed their 400-acre farm here in 2019, and the gate is rather modest given Carrie’s stature.
