Cumberland Place closed 11 homes in the past 12 months at a median of $550,000. No HOA, Indian Lake Elementary zoning, three minutes from Stark Knob Boat Launch, and homes up to 3,945 square feet. This is mid-upper tier Hendersonville without the monthly association fee.

Most established neighborhoods in Hendersonville at the $500,000 to $700,000 price point carry an HOA. Cumberland Place does not. That distinction matters more than it sounds. At the median price point here, buyers who come from HOA communities are often budgeting an extra $200 to $400 per month in dues on top of their mortgage. In Cumberland Place, that money stays in your pocket, and the tradeoff is a slightly older neighborhood with bigger lots and more square footage than what the same budget buys in newer developments.

The 11 homes that closed in Cumberland Place over the past 12 months ranged from $450,000 to $725,000, with a median of $550,000. These are all-brick and partial-brick traditional homes built between 1996 and 2004, most with two- or three-car garages, formal dining rooms, bonus rooms, and lot sizes from one-third to nearly one-half acre.

The Homes in Cumberland Place

Homes range from 1,694 to 3,945 square feet with 3 to 5 bedrooms and 2 to 3 full baths. Exterior construction is predominantly all-brick or partial brick with vinyl accents, which reduces long-term maintenance costs compared to fully vinyl-sided homes in newer developments. Two- and three-car attached garages are common, with several homes featuring oversized three-car garages designed with workshop or boat storage in mind.

Interior layouts typically include a formal dining room, eat-in kitchen, main-level primary suite in some homes (others place the primary upstairs), and bonus room over the garage or finished basement space. Fireplaces, hardwood floors on the main level, and crown molding are recurring features throughout the neighborhood. Recent listings highlight renovated kitchens with granite or quartz countertops, updated primary baths, and new roofing installed in 2021 through 2023 on many homes.

Several homes back to a small creek or have elevated lot positions with partial views toward the greenway and open spaces adjacent to the neighborhood. Lot sizes are a genuine differentiator here: a half-acre lot in Cumberland Place gives buyers outdoor space that does not exist in newer Hendersonville subdivisions at comparable price points.

Year-Over-Year Market Direction

A year ago Cumberland Place was closing at a median of $625,000, based on six prior-period transactions that skewed toward larger homes in the upper square footage range. Today the median is $550,000. The $75,000 drop reflects both a change in which homes sold and some softening in buyer aggressiveness at this price tier. Buyers negotiating in Cumberland Place today have more leverage than they did 12 months ago, particularly on homes that have accumulated days on market.

Schools

Cumberland Place is zoned for Indian Lake Elementary School, Robert E. Ellis Middle School, and Hendersonville High School. Indian Lake Elementary is one of the most consistently requested elementary school assignments in Hendersonville, and the school zone is a primary reason buyers specifically target Cumberland Place over comparable neighborhoods outside the zone. School zone assignments are sourced from RealTracs MLS data. Verify current assignments directly with Sumner County Schools before purchasing.

Why Work with Ryan Beals

Ryan Beals grew up in Hendersonville and has watched Indian Lake Elementary become one of the most searched school zones in the city. He works Cumberland Place regularly because it sits inside that zone at a price point where the no-HOA advantage and lot size still make the numbers work for a wide range of buyers.

In Cumberland Place specifically, Ryan sorts comps by square footage tier before any offer because the range from 1,694 to 3,945 square feet means a neighborhood average is meaningless for pricing a specific home. He also factors in garage configuration, renovation level, and whether a basement is finished or unfinished, because those variables move the number by $40,000 to $80,000 in this neighborhood. Call or text 629-263-0248 to talk through what your Cumberland Place home is worth today, or what a specific listing should realistically cost you before you make an offer.
