Garth Brooks sold stunning Tennessee home for steep discount the day before he was accused of rape

Garth Brooks and his wife Trisha Yearwood sold their stunning Tennessee home at a steep discount the day before the he was accused of rape. 

Brooks, 62, and Yearwood, 60, have finally offloaded their stunning Brentwood mansion for $3.34million on Wednesday after dropping the price several times from its initial 2023 listing price of $4.5million, Realtor.com reported.

The sale came just hours before the singer was accused of raping his and his wife's makeup artist, who claimed he assaulted her in May 2019 during a business trip. The lawsuit was filed on Thursday. 

The Grammy Award winner has denied her claims and said the woman, who is only known as 'Jane Roe,' was shaking him down for 'hush money.' 

'For the last two months, I have been hassled to no end with threats, lies, and tragic tales of what my future would be if I did not write a check for many millions of dollars,' Brooks told DailyMail.com. 

'Hush money, no matter how much or how little, is still hush money. In my mind, that means I am admitting to behavior I am incapable of — ugly acts no human should ever do to another.' 

The couple's gorgeous five-bedroom, seven-bath home offers farm-style living with its white shiplap exterior and white picket fence porch, lending authentic Tennessee charm. 

The home, which Yearwood bought in 2000, sits on 4.42 acres of private land and is guarded by two gated entrances and nine surveillance cameras, according to the Zillow listing. 

Brooks and Yearwood's home also appeared in more than 100 episodes of her cooking show Trisha's Southern Kitchen. 

The inside of the home has a modern but simple feel with white walls, sleek trimmings, and hardwood floors. 

The home has plenty of natural lighting spilling in through the windows and the house is surrounded by trees to give an extra private feel. 

Homeowners can enjoy multiple fireplaces located throughout the place and have plenty of space for a home office off the front door. 

An interesting feature of the home is the brown toilet in a green bathroom, while another one has a small chandelier. 

The kitchen and dining room follow the open concept of the rest of the house, but are separated by the brick flooring in the latter area. The kitchen has wood flooring the rest of the home, as well as a marble island. 

The kitchen has a neutral theme with grays, blacks, and whites adorning it, as well as stainless appliances. It also has a double-stack oven, a six-burner cooktop, a warming drawer, a 30-inch gourmet microwave, and a sleek Sub-Zero refrigerator, according to the listing. 

'The space is ideal for hosting intimate dinners, lavish gatherings or weekend retreats,' the listing said. 'Embrace the opportunity to own a piece of Brentwood's rich heritage and create your own legacy here.' 

As for whether or not the home was sold in connection to the rape allegations against Brooks is unknown. 

Brooks said the situation 'has been like having a loaded gun waved in my face.'

He also claimed he 'filed suit against this person nearly a month ago to speak out against extortion and defamation of character.' 

'We filed it anonymously for the sake of families on both sides,' he said. 

The plaintiff alleges the country icon brought her with him to Los Angeles for a Grammy event honoring the R&B singer Sam Moore in May 2019.

In the suit, the plaintiff claims the Friends in Low Places singer booked only one hotel suite there for both of them, and when she asked for a separate accommodation, he would not provide one.

She accuses him of then accosting her in the doorway nude, hauling her into another room, dangling her upside down by the ankles and raping her, in court documents obtained by Dailymail.com. 

In her new lawsuit, the makeup artist alleges that Brooks would send her sexually explicit text messages, tell her about his sexual fantasies and discuss sex with her.

She also accuses him of exposing his buttocks and genitals to her on more than one occasion and repeatedly changing clothes in front of her.

According to the makeup artist's suit, Brooks allegedly made advances to her at his home in 2019, before the Los Angeles trip when she says the rape occurred.

She claims she was at Brooks' house, waiting for him to meet her so that she could apply his makeup, when he emerged naked and erect from the shower.

She alleges that he then 'grabbed her hands and forced them' onto his erection, telling her he harbored fantasies that she would perform fellatio on him while wearing her glasses until he would eventually climax onto her face.

The makeup artist accuses Brooks of raping her later that year when they traveled to Los Angeles for his appearance at the Sam Moore tribute.
