Country Star Ronnie Dunn Buys Horse Property From Tennessee’s Richest Resident

Country singer-songwriter and record executive Ronnie Dunn, formerly of the chart-topping duo Brooks & Dunn, recently bought 6 acres of prime Nashville horse property from Thomas F. Frist Jr., the richest man in Tennessee.

Dunn paid $2.25 million for the completely fenced parcel of land that contains grassy meadows, mature trees and foliage, a stream, and a barn, all conveniently located within chipping distance of the Harpeth Hills Golf Course.

It’s likely Dunn will start construction on his next dream home on the property as soon as he sells his own lavish Nashville estate, which is currently priced at $9 million and has been on the market since 2014.

Apparently Frist was in no rush to sell the bucolic 6 acres—records indicate that it’s been on the market since 2008, when it was listed for $2.9 million. Because the 78-year-old heir, businessman, and philanthropist who’s the co-founder of the Hospital Corporation of America was … busy.

Besides his professional duties in health care and aviation, Frist is heavily involved with health-oriented charities, as well as the United Way. He and his wife, Patricia, live on an $18 million estate in nearby Belle Meade, TN. Frist is reported to be worth upward of $8.1 billion.

Grammy winner Dunn is also keeping busy, as a solo artist. His latest single, “Damn Drunk,” is a fan favorite. But the video for the song was obviously not shot on his new, lush property.
