Luxury Real Estate in Tennessee – Most Expensive FSBO?

by Mark Knowles on August 7, 2008

FSBO, or “For Sale by Owner,” has become a familiar word lately, but I believe I may have come across the most expensive FSBO so far – The Windyhills Estate in Chatanooga. Unless you count Donald Trump’s Palm Beach Mansion, – and he does rather have good access to a network of luxury real estate portals.

The owner has sensibly chosen video as the primary marketing tool, which will be featured on the front page of the Luxury Property main site when it launches. Although I understand the property is also being listed at a few less progressive venues using photographs and text. This is a preview of the video.


I gather this 10,000 sqft luxury home in Tennessee is offered fully furnished and the owner is a professional interior decorator. With a fondness for marble it seems: marble fireplace, massive marble staircase and marble floors. In fact, one of my colleagues remarked that this may not only be the most expensive FSBO, it may also be the “Heaviest Home in America.” :) The main house has 5 bedrooms and 5 1/2 bathrooms, but there is a separate 2,000+ sqft, 2 bed 2 bathroom guest house also on the 10.92 acre property.

I love the video, and if you are going to sell a property of this type yourself, this is the way to do it.

A $15 million FSBO seems kind of silly. Good find.

Hey anything is possible, but this might be a difficult one!

A FSBO at that price is not likely to sell, but who knows :)

Good find :-) I wish them luck.
