In an incredibly generous gift, The Land Trust for Tennessee was bequeathed the historic Glen Leven home and its surrounding sixty-five acres from Susan M. West. The property is located in Nashville, Tennessee at 4000 Franklin Road. In fulfilling Ms. West’s wishes for her property, The Land Trust is giving thoughtful consideration to ideas on what to do with this treasure in Davidson County. We began accepting proposals for the property in 2007. While reviewing the offers, The Land Trust has two primary guiding principles: (1) Ms. West’s will and (2) the mission of The Land Trust for Tennessee. Due to the importance of Glen Leven to Nashville, The Land Trust is taking the time needed, however long, to determine its future. The final decision of the use of the Glen Leven Property lies solely with The Land Trust for Tennessee. In the meantime the house is being well cared for and remains occupied.
The property is available for viewing periodically through out the year. We hosted an open house on Saturday, May 3rd. If you would like to be notified the next time we have an open event, please email us at glenleven@landtrusttn.org.
