The Brentwood real estate market is one of the most sought after areas in Nashville due to its good subdivisions like The Governors Club, Sheridan Park, Brookfield, and BonBrook. Brentwood homes for sale located close to Downtown Nashville and Cool Springs have just about everything a home buyer are searching for.

Brentwood is also home to some of Nashville's most prestigious and high profile residents from the world of country music. Trisha Yearwood lives here, as does Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, Dolly Parton, and Keith Urban. Carrie Underwood is also a new resident of Brentwood, having recently purchased a luxury home in the area.

In recent years, the area has seen a large amount of growth and development for new residential subdivisions with homes ranging from $200K to more than $7 million. More upscale developments are in the works, hoping to satisfy the high demand for Brentwood luxury homes. Also, there really are no 'bad' subdivisions in Brentwood, just some that different people like more than others or some that are more convenient than others based on rush hour traffic.

You might want to look in the area around the Concord Road or Moores Lane exits. You shouldn't have any trouble finding a lovely house on 1-acre in your price range. Subdivisions with houses currently listed in the 450k-675k range and that currently are designated Brentwood include Brenthaven, Foxboro and Chenoweth among others.

Meanwhile, Westhaven is also amazing and very worth to look at. Some of the yards may be small, but there is a ton of green space for landscape. 99% of the areas in Brentwood are quiet and safe with a little exception for the areas with close proximity to Cool Springs mall and Maryland farms.

Some may also say that airport noise is bad on the east side of Brentwood close to Nolensville pike but many also say that you won't even notice it. It's beautiful out there - feels "country" but is still so close to everything. Neighborhoods are generally close knit with block parties at the end of summer, Easter egg hunt, Halloween, etc. There are lots of families and kids, but a good mix of people.

The one issue you probably won't be able to escape is traffic. Traffic on the major roads in Brentwood such as in Old Hickory Boulevard as it can also be very busy because the highways definitely can get bumper-to-bumper during rush hours. Outside of rush hours though, traffic seems usually fine, so if someone works a non-traditional schedule, it shouldn't be an issue.

Brentwood also has the top rated school system in Tennessee. The city is unusual because it is located in both Davidson County and Williamson County. The top tier school system of Williamson County makes this area very desirable for parents. You can't go wrong either way.

The city also shares some of the best retail outlets and restaurants with Cool Springs. This is where you'll find everything from upscale car companies like Jaguar, Volkswagen, and Mercedes, to the latest bestsellers at Barnes and Noble.
