In what appears a heartbreaking instance of life imitating art, the Hendersonville fire department announced that Johnny Cash's lakeside Tennessee home burnt down today, leaving only its stone chimneys to commemorate where the late legend and wife June Carter Cash lived from 1968 until their deaths in 2003. Current owner Barry Gibb of the Bee Gees, who snatched up the property in 2006 for a not-so-modest $2.3 million, was renovating the three-story house. Reports say Gibb is, saddened and devastated by the news," while Cash is probably turning in his grave.
The Hendersonville fire chief, Jamie Steele, did not know the cause of the fire, but confirmed that a flammable wood preservative applied to the outside of the house during refurbishment helped spread the flames.
The fire began at lunch time and although fire engines were on the scene within five minutes they were unable to quell the flames.
Marty Stuart, Cash's former son in law, lives on the neighboring property and had this to say:
"So many prominent things and prominent people in American history took place in that house - everyone from Billy Graham to Bob Dylan went into that house."
In addition to being the watering hole for other legendary artists, the home was also used for Cash's music video for his final recording, a cover of NIN's "Hurt."
