HEAVEN'S RIDGE MINISTRY RETREAT HOMEEnjoy God's Presence at Scenic Natchez Trace

Welcome to Heaven's Ridge in the Picturesque Leipers Fork Area of Franklin, Tennessee. It is convenient to Historic Downtown Franklin, Leipers Fork, Fairview, Bellevue, Nashville and Brentwood. Despite the wondrous blessings of God at this residence offered for His kingdom use, it was stolen from its owners through collusion of a wealthy man, a ministry CEO and attorneys whom all have excellent reputations in Franklin, TN, nonetheless are liars, swindlers, crooks and cheats. Mercy and compassion rest upon your hearts and souls in the time to come.


The 25 peaceful acres comprise a full half mile ridge. The main lodge area is landscaped throughout with split rail fencing in keeping with the natural scenic beauty of this hill top ministry retreat home.


The 2500 sq ft main lodge is custom built in the hearthstone fashion with hand hewn lumber, iron fixtures and expansive 1600 sq ft wraparound porch to include a pavilion for the full enjoyment of an outdoor life and lifestyle.


The long front brick paver entry is bordered by a Radrazz rose garden with fragrant blooms of pink, fuchsia, red, white and pale lavender to greet you with bursts of color upon your arrival. Rich green ivies caress the split rail fencing beyond.


The interior of this home, though promoting great comfort, is luxurious in appointments; a successful attempt to create a respite from the cares of life, a welcoming quiet with easy modern conveniences to soothe the heart, mind and body.


Natural elements were sought in the landscaping detail: Large stone slabs for small retaining walls to flat boulders carving out gently rising steps. Rocks form landscape beds. Split rail fencing adorns the orchards where you will find Pear, Peach, Plum, Apple, and Cherry trees.


This country kitchen is the perfect place for large gatherings and family celebrations with room for a 12 at our table and one of three floor-to-ceiling wood-burning gas-starter stone fireplaces for added warmth and cozy building of strong relationships.


Front and rear lawns make for cozy entertaining or comfortable child's play. Two additional build sites await the funding for a creative arts Performance/Rehearsal/Meeting Hall with second floor guest rooms. The second site will provide a residence for housing of visiting pastors and ministers who choose to invest in the lives of our students. These two buildings will complement the existing Schoolhouse with working Bell Tower.


Silver Maple, Oaks, Beech, Cedar, Pines, Hickory, Birch, Poplar, Wild Cherry and Walnut are in this private preserve. Squirrels, chipmunks, deer, turkey and even an armadillo roam here. An 8 foot tall 5 acre perimeter fence keeps the garden blooms in place.


Whether outdoor or indoor at Heaven's Ridge, every detail has been considered in making this an exceptional refuge to inspire tranquility, presence and reflection. We have sought to create a place where God and man feel welcome...and even little doggies (Joey on the left).


There are three ponds which are alongside the entry. Every year we are visited by a pair of Canadian geese which nest on a small island in the larger pond. This year we were also visited by a quite lovely blue heron.


The Gardens share Forsythia; Autumn Haze and Sunset Swirl Azaleas; Floribunda Roses; Magenta and Potomac Rhododendrons; Tradescantia; 20 year old Japanese Lace Leaf Maple; Dogwoods; Ajuga Reptans; Rain Lillies; Mottled Trillium; Oak Leaf Hydrangea; Canna Lilies; and both American and Dwarf Hollies among other indigenous plants and trees.


In addition to the three ponds, Heaven's Ridge enjoys over 157 feet of a 12 foot wide creek at the base of the ridge. Either side of Scenic Hills Lane will provide an ideal place for sitting in the sounds and reading or contemplating one's potentially wet toes.


An inviting place of natural appeal is just outside your doorstep with forest rocks framing flower beds and lawns; Two full acres of imported river rock atop the ridge to adorn the clearing; split rail fencing replete with moss; and slabs of slate or stone for pavers, paths and step ways.


The Natchez Trace Bridge, an icon of the National Park and an architectural visual masterpiece of engineering, abuts Heaven's Ridge. Take a leisurely stroll along our wide forest path and walk out onto the bridge for spectacular sights of the valley.


This natural retreat is within minutes of several historical towns, commerce, parks, schools, hospitals and universities. And when the mood strikes, a cosmopolitan city with spectacular arts, cultural venues and playful nightlife is less than 30 minutes away. An international airport can service your global needs within 35 minutes. We welcome your visit. Heaven's Ridge is uniquely a place of naturally secluded privacy yet retains its ability to provide comfortable convenience.


Thank you for digitally touring Heaven's Ridge. We do hope as evening descends that your mind will enjoy peace; your body, tranquility; and your heart an embrace of love, goodness and a future of dreams fulfilled.
