Isaac Franklin Plantation, also known as Fairvue, is an antebellum plantation house in Gallatin, Tennessee.
Fairvue Plantation was built in 1832 for Isaac Franklin (1789–1846). Franklin retired to be a planter there after a career as a partner in the largest slave-trading firm in the South prior to the Civil War.
After his death, the property was inherited by his widow, Adelicia Acklen. The land of the former estate was long cultivated for agriculture.[1]
Fairvue was named a National Historic Landmark in 1977.
The Club at Fairvue Plantation opened in 2004.[2] In 2005, the house's historic landmark status was withdrawn due to development that had damaged its historic integrity. [3]
Much of the plantation property was developed for a gated community of large, luxury suburban mansions.[4]
