This Historic Tennessee Farm Feels Like the Ultimate Cozy Escape

On 250 acres in Summertown, Tennessee, Laura and Jamie Pfeffer have created a one-of-a-kind family retreat centered around connection, nature, and thoughtful design. From restoring an 1870s American chestnut log cabin to building a light-filled lake house and lakeside pavilion, every detail reflects their philosophy of “hardworking beauty”—spaces designed to be lived in, loved, and shared for generations. Enjoy!
