The McGavock–Gaines House, also known as Riverside, is a historic mansion in Franklin, Tennessee. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. The property then included two contributing buildings, one contributing structure, and one non-contributing building, on an area of 3.2 acres (1.3 ha).

Location

The house is located on Caruthers Road, east of the Lewisburg Pike, in Franklin, a small town in Williamson County near Nashville, in the Southern state of Tennessee.

History

The mansion was built circa 1840 for James Randal McGavock, the son of Randal McGavock, who served as the mayor of Nashville, Tennessee from 1824 to 1825 and owned the Carnton Plantation.

It was remodelled into Classical Revival style in 1902 and renamed as Riverside. This included adding the house's two-story portico and completely remodeling the interior.
