A house, or rather a mansion that is the real estate equivalent of the state it’s nestled in, has landed on the market — and it’s a doozy. A fancy doozy.

It’s called the “Dark Horse Estate,” and it’s a Tennessee mega mansion that sort of looks like if the witch from “Hansel and Gretel” was wealthy. At least on the exterior.

The vast property is listed in Franklin for a whopping $24 million and has strong connections to the music world.

“Dark Horse Estate – An iconic world-class compound and creative retreat; truly a legacy estate for the discerning few. This one-of-a-kind property encompassing 10 pristine riverfront acres, includes both famed Dark Horse Studios and the breathtaking Dark Horse Manor,” the listing on Zillow says.

Tons of artists have utilized the property including Taylor Swift, Korn and Keith Urban, to name a few, the website says.

Features along the property, per the listing, include:

  • 14,000-square-foot Manor House
  • Cottage
  • Apartment
  • Recording studios

The residence was featured on Zillow Gone Wild, a popular Facebook real estate page that showcases unique homes on the market across the country.

People were impressed.

“What a lovely house. That rustic style isn’t me but here it’s well done, with perfect balance between the size of the beams, the furniture, the decor in general,” one person commented.

“Gorgeous and tasteful! Places like this are so owner-specific that it seems they’d be hard to sell. But this one isn’t over the top in any way,” another said.

“It’s really lovely. I usually find these places too cold or too overdone but this is cozy and homey while also being commercially purposeful,” someone observed.

“This is a resort for musicians,” one person said.

Franklin is a 20-mile drive south from Nashville.

The listing is held by Compass.
