Durham Farms Hendersonville TN: Homes for Sale, HOA and Architecture in a Built-Out Master Plan, 90 Sales at a $646,500 Median

90 homes closed in Durham Farms in the past year at a $646,500 median, and 70 of them were resales. The last builder closing in the MLS came in February 2026, so buying in Durham Farms now means buying from an owner.

For most of its life, Durham Farms in Hendersonville TN was a new construction story. That chapter has closed. From October 30, 2025, through October 29, 2026, 90 homes sold in Durham Farms at a median of $646,500, and 70 of them, 77.8 percent, were resales. A year earlier, 85 of 154 sales were new construction. The last builder closing in the data came in February 2026.

That changes how you shop here. You are no longer comparing a resale against a builder price sheet; you are comparing one owner's home against another's. If you want that comparison done for your budget and the home type you need, reach out directly. I'm Ryan Beals, born and raised in Gallatin and Hendersonville, and I can pull the closest resales before you tour.

All figures here cover the Durham Farms community as RealTracs records it, every Durham Farms label and phase, with Laurel Park next door counted separately.

Durham Farms Today: A Built-Out Master Plan in North Hendersonville

Durham Farms sits in north Hendersonville, reached from New Shackle Island Road. The developer, 360 Communities, laid it out as a master-planned community built in four phases, with a clubhouse, pool, fitness center, playground, dog park, sidewalks and walking trails named in the listings. Homes in this year's sales were built from 2016 to 2025.

The builder pipeline is what changed. New construction closings fell from 85 to 20, with 10 in the last quarter of 2025, 10 in the first quarter of 2026 and none after February. Those final builder sales skewed large, a median of 3,411.5 square feet at $842,492, so they say little about what a typical resale costs today. The story of how the builders wound down, and how early buyers fared on resale, lives in our Durham Farms and Laurel Park new construction breakdown; if you are hunting for a new build, our guide to new construction beyond Durham Farms covers where builders are still active.

Durham Farms Architecture: What the Master Plan Looks Like in the Listings

The architecture follows traditional neighborhood design: sidewalks, front porches and smaller lots that trade private yard for shared amenities. The listings back that up. Of the 90 sales, 59 named a covered porch, 79 were two-story and the median lot was 0.18 acres, with 75 under a quarter acre. Exteriors lean toward brick paired with fiber cement or hardboard siding: 78 sales listed some brick, and 33 were all brick.

Most homes have front-entry garages, though 13 listed rear or alley-access garages, a common feature on the narrower lots. Sizes run from 1,761 to 5,005 square feet with 2 to 5 bedrooms, and 48 of the 90 sales had the primary bedroom on the main floor, which matters if you want to avoid stairs now or later.

Homes for Sale in Durham Farms: Detached, Attached and Resale Prices

The 57 detached resales closed at a median of $645,000 and $238.51 per square foot, from $454,500 to $1,150,000. The 13 attached homes, nine townhomes, three zero lot line homes and one condo, closed at a median of $420,000, from $375,000 to $512,000, on about 2,011 square feet. Across all 90 sales, 22 closed above $800,000 and 13 at $500,000 or less, so the community covers a wide band of budgets.

Where a home sits inside the community moves the price as much as its size. Phases and sections differ in lot width and home type, and the section-by-section medians are in our Durham Farms phases guide. If your budget runs past $700,000, our Hendersonville homes over $700K guide shows how Durham Farms fits against the rest of the city.

Against the city, Durham Farms resales closed at $630,000, 24.8 percent above the $505,000 Hendersonville resale median. On price per square foot the gap is only 3.1 percent, $233.25 against $226.34. The homes here are bigger and newer, and that, more than the name, drives most of the difference.

Durham Farms HOA: Two Tiers and What Each Covers

Every sale in the past year listed an HOA, and the dues fall into two clear tiers. Detached homes carried a median of about $108 a month, with 71 of 77 between $103 and $112; some listings bill it quarterly. For most detached homes the dues cover the amenities and, in many listings, common grounds maintenance. Attached homes carried a median of about $326 a month, from about $183 to $409, because those dues usually add exterior maintenance, and 8 of the 13 attached listings also named insurance.

Budget for the one-time transfer fee too: the 23 listings that stated one ranged from $315 to $575, with a median of $399. For how these dues compare across Hendersonville, see our guide to what HOA fees cover by community, the Hendersonville HOA fees by neighborhood and, for the attached tier, HOA fees on Hendersonville townhomes and condos.

What Changed From a Year Ago

A year ago Durham Farms was closing at a $605,000 median across 154 sales. Today that number is $646,500 across 90. That increase tells you more about the builders leaving than about rising prices, because the prior year blended 85 new construction sales at $624,990 with resales.

The fairer read is resale to resale. The resale median rose from $574,000 to $630,000, up 9.8 percent, but resale price per square foot rose just 1.0 percent, from $230.97 to $233.25. The difference is size: the median resale grew from 2,466 to 2,647.5 square feet as larger, newer homes from the later phases started to resell. Holding size roughly steady, detached resales of 2,400 to 3,200 square feet rose 4.8 percent, from $613,000 to $642,500. Attached homes moved from $409,900 to $420,000, up 2.5 percent, on 13 sales each year.

On negotiation, the median resale closed at 99.5 percent of its final list price, and 33 of 70 closed at or above list. But 31 of 70 resales took a price cut before going under contract, and those closed at a median of 95.8 percent of their original asking price. For a seller, that is the cost of starting too high; our guide to pricing a Hendersonville home correctly covers how to avoid it.

The question I hear most from buyers touring Durham Farms now is whether they should hold out for a builder to come back. My answer is that the real choice here is between resales, so I walk buyers through what the first owner already added, from landscaping and window treatments to finished storage space, and what that would cost to add to a bare new house. Then I compare the home only to resales of the same type and similar size in the same part of the community, because a townhome, a smaller-lot cottage and a large home on a wider lot are priced as different products even though they share a name. Buyers who compare that way stop measuring every listing against a builder price sheet that no longer exists.

Getting Around Durham Farms, and Who Buys Here

Daily drives start on New Shackle Island Road, which runs south toward Vietnam Veterans Boulevard (SR 386). From there, SR 386 carries you west to I-65 and into Nashville, typically 30 to 45 minutes to downtown most mornings, with Vanderbilt University Medical Center and the downtown office core as common destinations. Traffic builds approaching the SR 386 interchange, so drive your route at commute time before you commit.

The buyers I see in Durham Farms are mostly Hendersonville and Nashville-area households moving up to a newer, larger home, relocating buyers who want amenities and sidewalks built in, and buyers looking at the attached homes as a lower-maintenance option. For the broader picture of how established homes are selling across the city, see our Hendersonville resale market guide and our comparison of new construction vs resale in Hendersonville.

Schools Serving Durham Farms

In MLS, 88 of the 90 sales listed Dr. William Burrus Elementary at Drakes Creek, Knox Doss Middle School at Drakes Creek and Beech High School. One listing showed Station Camp High School and one, on Old Drakes Creek Road, showed a different set, so do not assume the assignment from the community name alone. Our Hendersonville school zone guide and the Beech High School zone breakdown go deeper. Zone lines change, so verify any address with Sumner County Schools.
