Laurel Park Hendersonville TN: 5 Sales at an $831,300 Median as the Builder Phase Ends (2026 Market Data)

Laurel Park closed just five homes in the past 12 months at an $831,300 median, and the last builder sale recorded in MLS was in December 2025. From here on, buying in Laurel Park mostly means buying from a first owner.

Laurel Park is a Phillips Builders community in north Hendersonville, built from 2022 to 2025 and zoned in MLS for Beech Elementary, T. W. Hunter Middle and Beech High. From October 30, 2025, through October 29, 2026, five homes closed here at a median of $831,300 and $259.17 per square foot. Four were the builder's final closings, and one was the community's first resale of the year.

I'm Ryan Beals, born and raised in Gallatin and Hendersonville. This guide covers what Laurel Park is, the two kinds of homes inside it, every sale from the past year, the HOA, what changed from a year ago, and what the shift from builder sales to resale means if you want to buy or sell here.

A quick note on scope. These figures include every MLS label for the community (Laurel Park, Laurel Park Ph 1B and Laurel Park Ph 2). Laurel Park is a separate subdivision from Durham Farms, and Durham Farms sales are not counted here.

What Laurel Park Is and Where It Sits

MLS history shows 103 Laurel Park closings since late 2022, and 98 of them were new homes listed by Phillips Builders. Closings were most frequent in 2024, prices climbed in 2025 with the larger three-car plans, and the builder's last recorded closing came in December 2025. The only Laurel Park sale in 2026 through late October was a resale.

MLS coordinates put Laurel Park in north Hendersonville, about two miles west of Durham Farms, beside Victoria Place and Beech Heights. Streets include Willow Bend Drive, Parkenham Drive, Doversley Court and Stonehaven Way, and one recent listing describes Beech High School as within walking distance. Because Laurel Park and Durham Farms sold new homes over the same years, buyers often shop them together, but they are separate communities with separate HOAs.

Every Laurel Park Sale From the Past 12 Months

With only five sales, the individual homes tell the story better than the median. The four builder closings ran from $766,364 to $915,152, all two-story homes with three-car garages and the primary bedroom on the main level. The smallest, a 2,957 square foot plan on Parkenham Drive, closed at $766,364; a 3,234 square foot plan closed at $831,300; and two 3,525 square foot plans closed at $895,689 and $915,152.

The fifth sale was different: a 2,327 square foot home on Doversley Court, built in 2024, resold in July 2026 for $629,900, or $270.69 per square foot. Across all five, price per square foot stayed in a tight band from $254.10 to $270.69, which is what you expect when one builder priced most of the homes. Five sales is a small sample, so read the median as a midpoint of these homes, not a market average.

The Homes: Two Product Lines in One Community

Laurel Park was built in two distinct styles. The earlier sections, including Stonehaven Way and the streets served by rear alleys, are mostly two-car homes, and Doversley Court has both kinds. Across all 103 closings in MLS, the 42 two-car homes closed at a $589,711 median with about 2,682 square feet. Most of the later homes, on Willow Bend Drive and Parkenham Drive, have three-car garages, and those 61 closings landed at an $826,639 median with about 3,525 square feet.

The gap looks large in dollars, but per square foot it is modest: $227.55 for the two-car homes against $234.04 for the three-car homes. The three-car homes cost more mostly because they are bigger. Homes across the community range from 2,259 to 4,168 square feet with 3 to 6 bedrooms, and four of the five recent listings describe hardboard siding with partial brick.

From Builder Sales to Resale: What Buying Looks Like Now

The one recent resale gives a first look at the next phase. That Doversley Court home first sold new in November 2024 for $565,699 and resold for $629,900, a difference of $64,201, though the owner's upgrades and costs are not in that figure.

When the builder's last homes close in a community like Laurel Park, buyers who had their hearts set on new construction often ask me why they should pay a first owner more than that owner paid the builder. My answer is to price the house against what it would take to get the same home today, not against an old contract. A lightly lived-in home usually comes with the fencing, window coverings, landscaping and finished details that a new build leaves on your to-do list, and you skip the build timeline. I walk buyers through the original listing and what the owner added so they can see exactly what they are paying for.

Laurel Park HOA Fees and Amenities

All five recent sales listed an HOA fee. The builder listings showed $145 per quarter, about $48.33 a month, while the July 2026 resale listed $250 per quarter, and some earlier builder listings showed $125. Amounts listed in MLS are entered by agents, so confirm the current fee and any transfer charge with the HOA or title company before your inspection period ends.

All five listings note sidewalks and underground utilities, two list grounds maintenance among the items the fee covers, and the resale listing adds a playground. For how these dues compare across the city, see Hendersonville HOA fees by neighborhood and what HOA fees cover by community.

Laurel Park Homes Recently Sold (Past 12 Months)

What Changed From a Year Ago

A year ago Laurel Park was in its busiest stretch: 37 homes closed in the prior 12 months, 35 of them new, at an $858,685 median and $243.60 per square foot. This year's five sales put the median $27,385 lower, but price per square foot came in $15.57 higher. Both moves rest on only five recent sales, so neither is a reliable trend.

The mix explains most of it. This year's homes were 291 square feet smaller at the median and included one two-car resale, which pulls the median down while smaller homes usually sell for more per foot. Same-plan sales go both ways: the 2,957 square foot plan closed at $766,364 this year against a $791,676 median on five prior sales, while the 3,525 square foot plan closed at $895,689 and $915,152 against a $868,059 median on three prior sales. Citywide, Hendersonville went from 1,125 sales at $545,000 to 1,089 at $533,900, down 2.0 percent.

For longer context, calendar 2023 brought 21 closings at a $601,854 median and $225.91 per foot, 2024 brought 42 at $618,510 and $225.71, and 2025 brought 38 at $869,749 and $247.97 as the larger three-car plans took over.

How Laurel Park Compares to Other Beech Zone New Construction

Across Hendersonville, 96 new construction homes with Beech High listed in MLS closed in the past 12 months at a $757,450 median, about 3,148 square feet and $244.30 per square foot.

Getting Around Laurel Park and Who Buys Here

Laurel Park sits on the north side of Hendersonville, where roads such as New Shackle Island Road lead south through town toward Vietnam Veterans Boulevard (SR 386). From there, I-65 carries you into Nashville, and downtown typically runs 30 to 45 minutes most mornings depending on traffic at the I-65 merge. Drive your own route at commute time before you decide.

The buyers I see looking here are usually moving up from a smaller first home and want a newer floor plan with the primary bedroom on the main level, relocating buyers who want a home built in the last few years without waiting on a build, and owners already in north Hendersonville who want more space without changing their routine. If you are comparing it with established neighborhoods nearby, our guide to Hendersonville neighborhoods and resale value is a useful next read.

Schools Serving Laurel Park

All five recent sales, and all 37 in the prior year, listed Beech Elementary, T. W. Hunter Middle School and Beech High School in MLS, so the data shows one consistent assignment for the community. Our guide to Hendersonville school zones explains how zones line up across the city. Zone lines change, so verify the assignment for any address directly with Sumner County Schools.
