Justin Timberlake sells 126-acre Nashville ranch for $8M
Justin Timberlake has sold his 126 acre Nashville estate for a cool $8million - as the fallout from his shock DWI arrest last week continues. The Cry Me A River hitmaker, 3, first listed the plot in Franklin - located about 20 miles south of Nashville and just a few hours from his hometown of Memphis - in August last year for $10million.
The land was sold in May for the huge amount - two weeks before the star's arrest - with Timberlake making a huge profit, having first bought the plot in 2015 for $4million. The sprawling land deal comes with unique mountain views and an abundance of green space perfect for horseback riding, fishing and mountain biking.
On top of its amenities for the nature lover, the property also boasts stone walls and a close proximity to the cozy village of Leiper's Fork. The new buyer will also be in good company with famous neighbors in the area like Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban , Trisha Yearwood, and Tim McGraw and Faith Hill.
With two private entrances, the property is also a remote paradise for nature lovers looking to get away from the hustle and bustle. One of the main entrances has a covered bridge that creates a welcoming and rustic atmosphere when welcoming guests to the property. For those who have an affinity for the water, Dobyns Branch Creek runs through the area and gives life to the heavy green area.
Currently, the estate does not appear to have a home built on the premises. The new owner is listed as a limited liability company - per The Sun . It's unclear what prompted Timberlake to put the land on the market and if he and wife, actress Jessica Biel , are looking for another plot of land in his home state.
It wouldn't be surprising, however, as an insider told US Weekly in 2021 that they like raising their sons - Silas, 7, and Phineas, 3, - away from the limelight and LA. 'They both prefer the country life. It's great for the boys because they have so much space and freedom,' the source told the outlet.
The Sag Harbor Police Department said in a statement on June 18 that Justin had been 'observed operating a 2025 BMW southbound on Madison Street, failing to stop at a duly posted stop sign and failing to maintain his lane of travel' in the early hours of the same day. He was determined to be 'operating his vehicle in an intoxicated condition' and arrested, processed and held overnight for morning arraignment.
Justin was charged with two citations for running a stop sign and failure to keep in lane and with one count of DWI told the arresting officer: ' I had one martini and I followed my friends home.' The singer's attorney Edward Burke Jr said in a statement: 'Mr Burke looks forward to vigorously defending Mr. Timberlake against these allegations.
'He will have a lot to say at the appropriate time. He is currently awaiting full discovery from the DA's office.' On Tuesday, his wife Biel was seen without her wedding ring on when in NYC to film The Better Sister. But later in the day, the 7th Heaven actress slipped the ring back on.
