The fire was reported at about 9:42 p.m.
WKRN reported that crews had to go up a long road, then a long driveway.
The garage was fully involved when they finally arrived.
They had to use a 10,000-gallon water tank on the property to supply water and get the fire quickly under control. It took a few hours, however, chasing hot spots after the flames got into the building’s walls.
The main home was not damaged and officials said the fire was caused by a UTV that was parked next to the garage, The Tennessean reported.
Property records show that the house was sold for $5.5 million in 2008 and was appraised for more than $11 million this year, the newspaper reported.
