Thirty three acres usually means a long drive to everything. Not here.

This property sits at the very end of its road, just over the Williamson County line, with Franklin and Nashville an easy drive away. A pond greets you at the entry. A private creek with a sandy beach runs along the land. Out back there is a pool and spa, a basketball court and a huge patio. Inside, custom millwork, a main-level primary suite and a finished walk-out basement with a theater and game rooms.

When buyers look at land, I encourage them to ask one question before they count acres: what will this land actually do for the way you want to live? Here the answer is a lot. A barn, a separate studio building and soil good enough to farm. Most land at this price gives you room. This one gives you room and a reason to use it.

🛏 3 bedrooms, with room options for 6
🛁 5 full and 1 half baths

Everyone says you can buy before you sell. Almost nobody explains how to do it at this price point.

There are four ways, and each one costs something.

A sale contingency. Your offer on the next home depends on this one selling. It protects you, and it makes your offer weaker against a buyer with no strings attached.

Bridge financing. A short-term loan that lets you use the equity in this home before it sells. It moves fast and it is not cheap, and the lender decides whether you qualify.

A home equity line. Similar idea, different structure and cost. Also up to the lender.

A leaseback. You sell this home, take the money, and stay in it for an agreed number of weeks while the next purchase closes. The buyer and the buyer’s lender both have to agree.

At this price, the numbers are big enough that the order you do things in matters more than the loan you pick. Have the lender model both closings together before you write anything.

“When a homeowner wants to buy the next property before selling the current one, I believe the most important decision is the sequence, not simply the choice of financing.”

The average price of a luxury home in Nashville dipped in September. The value of each square foot went up.

Both are true, and the reason matters if you own a home between $750K and $1.5M.

In September, 129 new listings came on in Davidson County’s luxury segment, up from 107 in August. 72 homes closed. The average closed price eased to $954.2K, but only because buyers chose smaller homes. Price per square foot rose to $376, and it has held between $370 and $376 since April.

Here is how I read it. This is a volume story, not a value story. With 5.6 months of supply, buyers are taking their time, but they are still paying for quality. Homes from $900K to $1.05M held up best this quarter. Above $1.2M, homes are sitting the longest. If you are selling in that upper range, the first price you choose matters more than ever.

4 signs Williamson County luxury value could rise by 2027.

1. People keep coming. The Census Bureau put the county at 272,061 residents in July 2025, up 9.8 percent since 2020. More people means more demand for a limited number of homes.

2. Bigger lots. Williamson County still offers land that most central Nashville streets cannot, and at the luxury level land is the part of the home you cannot add later.

3. Newer estate homes. Franklin and College Grove have added estate-style and custom homes that are a generation newer than much of Nashville’s established luxury stock.

4. Public money going in. Franklin reported a record $1.7 billion in private investment over the last two years and keeps building the roads and services behind it.

Now the honest part. None of these signs guarantees a higher price. If new homes are built faster than buyers arrive, sellers face more competition, and a buyer looking at $3 million to $5 million can just as easily choose Forest Hills or Oak Hill. So buy for the reason you chose the county, the land, the newer home, the privacy, or the pace of life, not for the growth story alone.

“I think Williamson County works best for buyers who understand what they are actually paying for.”

Nashville can keep building new houses. It can’t build more acreage inside the city.

805 Cammack Ct sits on approximately 1.15 acres in West Meade Hills, surrounded by mature trees that give it a level of privacy most in-town homes can’t offer. Inside, about 3,800 square feet of single-level living centers on an open kitchen with a large island, generous living spaces and room to spread out.

Finishes can be changed. Land and location can’t. When buyers in this range weigh a new build on a tight lot against an established home on an acre, I encourage them to ask one question: which will still feel rare ten years from now?

💰 $1,799,000
🛏 5 Bedrooms
🛁 3 Bathrooms
📐 3,804 Square Feet

Open house Sunday, November 1, from 2 to 4 PM. Come walk the property with me.

The most expensive part of living outside downtown isn’t the mortgage. It’s the drive back in.

The Viridian #1702 sits 17 floors above Church Street, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing the Nashville skyline. Broadway, Bridgestone Arena, the Ryman and Fifth + Broadway are all a short walk away, and the building handles the rest: concierge, rooftop pool and sundeck, fitness center and secure garage parking.

When buyers compare downtown condos, I encourage them to price the lifestyle, not just the square footage. 827 square feet with a skyline view and the city at your door often lives larger than a house twice the size that you have to drive away from.

Nashville condo buyers just got their leverage back.

September brought more closings, 17 versus 14 in August. But active high-rise listings climbed to 262, the highest count of the year, and sellers averaged 93.8% of their asking price.

Four sales still closed above $1 million, so the top of the market is moving. What changed is who has the stronger hand in a negotiation. With 51 listings sitting past 180 days, buyers have room to ask for more.

My take: when a building has several similar units for sale, the one that sells is not always the nicest. It is the one priced for today’s market, not last spring’s. If you own, the number that matters is what the units around you actually close for, not what they are listed at.

The best buyer leverage of 2026 showed up in September. Most people won’t notice until the holidays.

Seventy-nine new luxury listings hit Davidson County in September, the heaviest month of new supply all quarter. Only 36 closings have been recorded so far. For the first time this year, supply is outrunning demand.

And yet prices did not move. Sellers still averaged 97% of asking, and 13 of those 36 sales closed at or above full list.

Here is how I read it. Leverage has shifted, but it has shifted toward buyers who know what a home is actually worth. With 468 homes active and roughly 7.4 months of supply, you finally have room to negotiate, especially above $3 million where 131 listings are competing for a thin buyer pool. Below $2.5 million, the core still moves fast for anything priced to the roughly $500 per square foot the market is paying. The question for Q4 is not whether to buy. It is whether you can tell a correctly priced home from one that is still hoping.

Do not buy the lot before you design the home.

Most land purchases run in the wrong order. Buy the site, then figure out what fits. By then the building envelope, the setbacks, the access and the surrounding homes have already decided what you can build, and the price was set before you knew.

The order that works:

1. Decide what the buyer pool on that street will support.
2. Decide what type of home fits the street or the community, including the architectural language, size, outdoor program and finish level.
3. Only then calculate what the land, construction and carrying costs allow.

That is how to avoid paying a premium simply because another buyer wants the same parcel. A lot can look compelling on paper and still produce a compromised home if the envelope, outdoor spaces, access or context do not cooperate.

When I evaluate a luxury lot, I am less interested in the raw acreage than in what the site allows the finished property to become.

Have you ever walked in to vote and not known what one of the amendments was?

Early voting opened across Tennessee this week, and three constitutional amendments are on the ballot. Let’s dive into one of them. Amendment 2 happens to be about property. It adds one line to the state constitution: the Legislature “shall not levy, authorize, or otherwise permit any state tax upon such property.” Tennessee has not collected a state property tax since 1949, and the property tax you pay today is local: your county assessor sets the value, and your county commission and city set the rate. Local governments could still levy property taxes under the amendment.

What I encourage owners to notice is which level of government moves their bill. The headline is statewide. The two numbers your actual tax bill is calculated from are local: the appraised value on the home and the rate where it sits.

🗳 Early voting: October 14 to 29
📅 Election Day: Tuesday, November 3

Now you know what you’re voting on. Swipe through for what it changes and what it does not, and if you want the official text and my full breakdown, comment AMENDMENT and I’ll DM you the source links.
