Oxford Station's median sale price fell 4.0% over the past year. Its townhome median rose 1.8%. Both numbers are true, and neither one is what actually happened. Every individual floor plan in this community is flat or down.

Twenty-nine homes closed at Oxford Station between September 2025 and August 2026, at a median of $325,500. A year earlier the community median was $339,000. That looks like a 4.0% decline, and a seller reading only that number would panic. A seller reading the townhome-only number would relax instead, because attached townhomes went from a $319,240 median to $325,000, up 1.8%.

Both figures come from the same closed sales. Both are arithmetically correct. And both are measuring the size of the homes that happened to sell, not the value of the homes people own. When you line the closings up by exact square footage, the picture stops being ambiguous: the 1,214 square foot plan lost $14,000, the 1,511 plan lost $9,100, the 2,033 plan lost $29,140, and the 1,760 plan finished within $145 of where it started. Not one plan gained ground. Price per square foot across the community fell from $226.30 to $221.64.

That is the entire story of this community right now, and it is why a Zestimate or a neighborhood average will mislead you here in either direction. If you want the number that applies to your specific plan rather than to the mix of homes that sold, Ryan Beals can pull the closings that match your square footage and show you where your unit actually sits.

Why the Median Moved and Prices Did Not

The mechanism is straightforward once you see it. In the prior 12 months, eight of the 31 closings were detached or site-built homes selling in the $350,000 to $358,000 range, and those larger, pricier units dragged the community median up. In the most recent 12 months only two detached homes closed. Take them out of the mix and the community median drops, even if nothing about pricing changed.

Then the same effect runs the other direction inside the townhomes. The median townhome sold last year measured 1,306 square feet. This year it measured 1,511. Buyers bought 205 more square feet for roughly the same money, which reads as a 1.8% price gain and is really a 3.6% per foot loss.

The Builder Is Still Here, and It Changes Everything

Twenty-four of the 29 recent closings were listed by Parkside Realty, the brokerage carrying the builder's inventory. Only five were ordinary resales by individual owners. Oxford Station is not a resale market with some new construction in it. It is a builder's price sheet with five resales attached, and Phase IV, the final phase, is what is selling now along Bishop Boulevard.

That balance produces the single most important number in this post for anyone thinking about listing. Builder closings landed at 100.00% of original list price in a median of 25 days. Resale closings landed at 94.43% of original list price in a median of 56 days, and four of the five sellers cut their price before they found a buyer. On a $355,000 home, that gap is close to $20,000.

What makes it worth paying attention to is that the same comparison ran the other way a year ago. In the prior 12 months, resale sellers here were the fast ones: 17 days on market at 99.38% of original list, while builder listings sat a median of 91 days. The advantage reversed inside a single year. The builder got faster and firmer on price while individual sellers got slower and softer.

I live in Oxford Station, so most of what I know about this community I learned on foot rather than off a spreadsheet. The walkability inside the neighborhood is the part residents bring up first: sidewalks on every street, the Little Branch Creek trail running out the back, and the dog park and yoga circle close enough that people actually use them on a weeknight instead of driving somewhere to get outside. Getting out is easy too, with Highway 386 and the retail at 109 a few minutes up Long Hollow Pike without crawling through town. The other thing I want every buyer and seller here to know is that Phase IV is the final phase, so the builder inventory that competes with every resale listing in this community has an end date, and when it sells out the pricing conversation at Oxford Station changes completely.

The Expired Listing Count Is Not What It Looks Like

Pull Oxford Station up in a raw MLS search and you will find 140 expired listings against 92 closed sales over the past two years. That ratio would be alarming in an established neighborhood. Here it is a filing artifact. Those 140 expirations cover only 51 unique addresses, and 137 of them were listed by the builder's brokerage. The builder lets a listing lapse and relists the same unit, sometimes five or six times on one address, as construction timelines and pricing change.

Read as distress, that number would scare a buyer off a perfectly healthy community. Read correctly, it tells you something more useful: the builder is patient, holds price, and is willing to let a unit sit rather than discount it. That is exactly the behavior an individual seller is competing against.

Getting Around Oxford Station

Oxford Station sits off Long Hollow Pike in Gallatin's 37066 zip code, with Tappan Lane and Bishop Boulevard forming the two main interior streets. Long Hollow Pike is the connector that gets you to Highway 386 and Vietnam Veterans Boulevard, and from most addresses in the community you reach the on-ramp in well under ten minutes.

From there, downtown Nashville typically runs 45 to 55 minutes on a weekday morning. The friction point worth knowing about before you buy is the Long Hollow Pike and Highway 386 interchange at 109. Evening rush through that stretch can add 10 to 20 minutes, and it is inconsistent enough that most mornings and most evenings are not the same trip. Buyers commuting to Vanderbilt Medical Center, HCA, or the employers along the 386 corridor should drive it at the hour they would actually be driving it, not on a Saturday afternoon.

The buyer profile here follows from the price and the product. At a $325,500 median with plans starting at 1,214 square feet, Oxford Station draws first-time buyers, young professionals, and smaller households who want something built in the last four years and a Station Camp High School assignment without the $450,000-plus entry cost of communities deeper inside that zone. It also draws downsizers who want a one-car garage and an HOA that handles the exterior.

How the Price Per Foot Compares to the Rest of Gallatin

Across all of Gallatin, townhomes closed at a $327,190 median over the same 12 months, at $195.97 per square foot. Oxford Station closed at $325,000 and $221.64 per square foot. Nearly identical total price, but Oxford Station buyers paid about 13% more per foot and took a smaller home to do it.

That premium is what the Station Camp High School assignment and the 2022-and-newer construction are worth to this buyer pool. It is real, it is measurable, and it is worth knowing you are paying it. Meanwhile the Gallatin market overall closed at a $430,000 median, up 4.2% year over year, so the flat-to-down per foot movement at Oxford Station is specific to this community and this product, not a citywide trend. For how Oxford Station compares against other options in the same budget band, the breakdown of Gallatin neighborhoods under $425,000 lays out what each one gives you, and the wider data-driven look at the best neighborhoods in Gallatin puts this community in citywide context. And if your search is not locked to Gallatin, it is worth seeing what the same budget buys in Gallatin versus Hendersonville before you narrow down, because the two cities price the same square footage very differently.

The Homes at Oxford Station

This is a townhome community first. Twenty-seven of the 29 recent closings were attached townhomes, with a small number of site-built and HPR-detached homes mixed in along Harvard Drive, Queen Lane, and Holywell Drive. The townhome plans run 1,214 to 2,033 square feet, two to four bedrooms, two to three full baths plus a half bath. The Annapolis is the model plan at roughly 1,300 square feet.

Construction is craftsman styling over hardboard or fiber cement with partial brick, which showed up on 26 of the 29 recent closings. Most units come with a one-car garage, a covered front porch, and a private rear patio. Interiors in the current phase lean on quartz counters, luxury vinyl plank, and tile, which is standard for this price band in Gallatin new construction and worth verifying plan by plan rather than assuming.

Two structural things follow from the size. First, these are practical homes for a first purchase or a right-size move, not for a growing family with a five-year horizon, and buyers here tend to need more space sooner than they expect. Second, because the plans are standardized, your comp set is unusually clean. Your 1,511 square foot unit has six other 1,511 square foot closings to be measured against, which is a level of precision most Gallatin sellers never get. Use it. For the broader picture of how builder inventory sets the ceiling on resale pricing in communities like this, the Gallatin new construction builder guide is worth reading before you list.

Amenities and Daily Life

Oxford Station carries a walking trail with creek access along Little Branch Creek, a dog park, a yoga circle, sidewalks throughout, park space, and underground utilities. There is no pool and no clubhouse, and the $170 monthly townhome fee reflects that. What it does cover is exterior maintenance, grounds maintenance, and insurance on the attached units, which is the part that actually matters for the low-maintenance buyer this community attracts.

The detached homes sit on a separate and much lower fee, generally $90 to $110 per month, and get grounds and common area upkeep without the exterior coverage. If you are comparing a detached listing to a townhome listing here, that fee difference is not a discount, it is a different set of responsibilities.

Everyday retail is a short drive down Long Hollow Pike, and the concentration of shopping and restaurants near the 109 and 386 interchange handles most errands without a longer trip. The sidewalk and trail network is the amenity residents actually use daily, and it is worth weighing that against the absence of a pool if you are comparing this community to others at the same price.

Schools at Oxford Station

Oxford Station feeds Howard Elementary for kindergarten through fifth grade, Rucker Stewart Middle School through eighth, then Station Camp High School. This is the detail buyers most often get wrong. Searching for "Station Camp" and landing here gets you the high school but not the elementary or middle school in that feeder. If the full Station Camp pipeline is what you are after, this is not it, and the breakdown of which Gallatin subdivisions land inside a zone and which miss by one street shows how tight these lines can be.

One further caution worth taking seriously. Of the 29 recent closings, 28 recorded Station Camp High School, and one address on Harvard Drive recorded Gallatin Senior High School instead. That is a single record, and it may be a filing error, but it is exactly the kind of thing that turns into a problem after closing. Verify the assignment for the specific address with Sumner County Schools before you write an offer, not after.

Which Plan and Which Street

The closings split cleanly by street because the streets split by plan. Tappan Lane carries the 1,214 and 1,306 square foot plans and closed at a $299,900 median. Bishop Boulevard carries the 1,511, 1,760, and 2,033 plans and closed at $335,900. The $36,000 street gap is not a location premium, it is a floor plan difference, and treating it as prestige would be an expensive mistake in either direction.

On value per dollar, the 1,760 square foot plan is the one holding its ground. It was the only plan that did not lose money year over year, finishing within $145 of last year's median at about $211 per square foot, which is the cheapest per foot of any plan in the community. The 1,214 plan is the opposite: the highest price per foot at roughly $235, and the largest percentage decline. Small and expensive per foot is a difficult combination to resell.

Why Work with Ryan Beals

I grew up in Gallatin and Hendersonville, and I live in Oxford Station. That is a different kind of knowledge than reading closed sales off a screen. I know which plans back to the open space, how the trail and the dog park actually get used, what the drive out to 386 feels like at 7:30 on a Tuesday, and where the school zone lines fall along the Long Hollow Pike corridor, which is not something you can pull off a listing site.

The part I will not do is quote you a community median and let you make a decision on it. At Oxford Station the median is genuinely misleading, in both directions, and any conversation about your home that starts with "the neighborhood is up" or "the neighborhood is down" is starting from the wrong number. Your plan has its own price history, its own per foot trend, and its own competitive set, and the builder's current pricing on that same plan sets the ceiling on what you can ask.

So that is where I start. Closed comps at your exact square footage, the builder's active list on the matching plan, and the honest gap between what a builder listing gets and what a resale listing gets in this community right now. Then you decide. Call me at 629-263-0248 and I will pull it before you commit to anything.
