Carrie Underwood House Fire Details:

Here is what we do and don’t know about the fire on Carrie Underwood’s property:

  • We do know that the family was home and that Underwood, Fisher and sons Isaiah and Jacob were not injured.
  • We do know their pets were unharmed. “One of the pets would not leave the homeowner’s side,” says Dinah Ward, spokesperson with WCFR (per the Tennessean).
  • We do know crews from eight different trucks were called, and some remained on the scene for several hours to extinguish hot spots.
  • We do know the home is near Leiper’s Fork, Tenn. but is in a very remote area of town.

It’s not clear if any of Underwood’s farm animals were nearby when the fire started and it’s not clear if anyone was asleep. We also don’t know her address but do know it wasn’t this 7,000 square foot mansion. That’s first up in a Google search, but the couple sold it in 2019.

Neither Underwood nor Fisher has said anything about the fire on social media. Her next show is slated for later this week.

Carrie Underwood and her husband, Mike Fisher, owned a 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom, 2-half-bathroom home in an affluent Nashville suburb called Brentwood. The 7,000-square-foot mansion features a wet bar, fitness center and tennis court, as well as a four-car garage, walk-out basement with heated marble floors and extra appliances, including a sub-zero fridge and wine fridge. That house is where Underwood suffered a devastating fall in 2017.

The couple sold the luxurious home for $1,410,000 in March of 2019, after they moved into the massive dream home that they had spent several years building from scratch.
