Nashville is a wonderful city with a strong economy and world-class entertainment. It’s a great place to live, and a great place to own real estate. There are many neighborhoods and surrounding suburbs, like Brentwood, that can make the right location a difficult choice, however. Should you buy a luxury home in Brentwood, or would a home right there in the city be better? Here’s a breakdown of what we love about each option.
Nashville, TN
“Music City USA” is a bustling metropolis with a vibrant music and entertainment scene and all of the excitement you’d expect to find in a city of more than 600,000 people. Education and health care abound in the city as well, which is home to more than 300 health-related companies, such as National HealthCare, Saint Thomas Health Services, AmSurg, BioMimetic Therapeutics, and Cumberland Pharmaceuticals. The famous Vanderbilt University also has a thriving medical center, which is the largest employer in the city.
Great schools can be found in most areas of Nashville, but Hume-Fogg High School, Martin Luther King Junior Magnet, and Lockeland Elementary Design Center are some of the best.
Brentwood, TN
If you want all the benefits of Nashville, without living the bustling city life, you’ll want to buy a luxury home in Brentwood instead. Brentwood is a peaceful and affluent community with lots of space to really spread out. In fact, it’s surrounded by scenic farmland. Commuting to Nashville is easy, too, with many freeway-close neighborhoods. The median home price in Nashville proper is $165,200, but luxury real estate abounds as well. The estate at 3540 Trimble Road, for example, is a stunning contemporary style home on more than an acre –a rarity in the metropolis. It’s just minutes from convenient shops, universities, and hospitals, and features a compact infinity pool with a spa. It’s listed at $3.5 million by Fridrich & Clark Realty.
The economy in Brentwood is quite strong, too. Corporate, regional, and subsidiary offices such as OHL, Tractor Supply Company, Brave New World Records, and Hobby Lobby International lead the economy, s
Brentwood schools received a 10 out of 10 rating from Great Schools. Prestigious private schools include Brentwood Academy, Currey-Ingram Academy, and Montessori Academy. While the median home price is higher than Nashville at $487,100, the population is considerably lower at around 38,000. The city is also home to numerous celebrities, such as Carrie Underwood, Kesha, Supermodel Niki Taylor, and Scott Wells of the Green Bay Packers among others.
There are a few ways to get a strong start in Brentwood, such as moving into a prestigious neighborhood like Princeton Hills, buying a much-revered home in the area, or making headlines in local news. Fortunately, there is one unique opportunity that offers all of this.
Pickney Manor is a well-known home in Princeton Hills. The neo-classical, incredibly detailed home has been featured in several luxury real estate magazines and hosted large charity events. The home sits on 3 acres of manicured lawns with gorgeous views of the surrounding 700 acres of farmland. The estate also has the unique feature of being available at luxury absolute no reserve auction on May 28th.
