Two Rivers Mansion (Nashville, Tennessee)

Two Rivers Mansion is an Antebellum historic house in Nashville, Tennessee, United States.

History
The mansion was built in 1859 for David H. McGavock (1826–1896), a cousin of the McGavocks who owned the Carnton plantation in Franklin, Tennessee, and his wife William "Willie" Elizabeth Harding (1832–1895), whose family owned the Belle Meade Plantation. During construction of the mansion, the McGavock family lived in the adjacent house named 'The 1802 House', a Federal-style red brick home. Both properties were once the centerpiece of an 1,100-acre plantation in Donelson, Tennessee.

Two Rivers was inhabited by the McGavock family for three generations until 1965, when it was purchased by the Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County from Mary Louise Bransford McGavock.

The land was turned into the Two Rivers Park and Golf Course, with eighteen holes of golf, baseball and softball diamonds, six tennis courts and a playground.

Architectural significance
Two Rivers was designed in the Italianate architectural style. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on February 23, 1972.

Location
The mansion is located at 3130 McGavock Pike in Nashville, Tennessee. It is located between the Stones River and the Cumberland River, hence the name.
