The amenities? A movie theater, a sultry bar and pool table area, and a spa-like primary bath.

The fashion model drew inspiration from Ralph Lauren’s Telluride dwelling in crafting the interiors of her stately Tennessee cabin. She aimed for a look that nodded to traditional Western aesthetics but also included plenty of soft textures, like her shearling armchairs, furry throw pillows, and tons of colorful antique rugs.

Upstairs, lower ceilings and log walls set a “cozy and homey” scene.
