Real Estate Trends of Nolensville
Nolensville features one of the highest proportions of new construction in the entire country. Builders have been scrambling to meet the needs of the town’s booming white-collar population, and it doesn’t look like they’ll be taking a break any time soon. Over 70% of the town’s residential options qualify as new construction, and almost all of those properties are large, detached, single-family homes, usually on generous lots. With almost too many new developments to keep track of, Nolensville is a haven for high-powered, white-collar professionals seeking a family-friendly retreat from the big city grind. Over 90% of Nolensville residents who own their homes take advantage of modern design and expansive floor plans that are likely to age well. Even 20 miles outside of town, new construction with four to five bedrooms doesn’t come cheap; and home prices can be a steep barrier to entry into this up-and-coming community.
