(April 11, 2007)—Investigators are looking for the cause of the fire Tuesday that destroyed the akeside home of the late country singer Johnny Cash in Hendersonville, Tenn.
The house was already engulfed in flames by the time fire trucks arrived.
The cause is unknown.
The Hendersonville fire chief says the flames spread quickly because construction workers had recently put a flammable wood preservative on the exterior of the house.
Cash and his wife June Carter Cash lived at the home until their deaths in 2003.
Barry Gibb, a member of the Bee Gees, bought the property in 2006.
He and his wife, Linda, said they planned to restore the home and hoped to write songs there.
Gibb's spokesman says they are "both saddened and devastated by the news."
While the Cashes lived there, the 13,880-square-foot home was visited by everyone from US presidents to ordinary fans.
