Taking the scenic route

Minimal stoplights and rolling green pastures fill the small town of Hopewell, located in Maury County 55 miles south of Nashville. Farmland and winding back roads lead the way to residential homes, off the beaten path of the main drags: Hopewell Road and Pulaski Highway. Commercial retail or restaurants other than Dollar General are sparse within the neighborhood itself, but Columbia—just 8 miles north—is teeming with shops, eateries and recreational spaces. “Hopewell isn’t so much a town as a two-lane road. It’s the kind of quiet and rural place with four seasons where people stay forever, or don’t move too far away. And usually, children will inherit their parent's property,” says Bonnie Hickman, a lifetime local and Broker at Crye-Leike, Inc. with 43 years of experience in the area.

Land, cottages and farmhouses

With plenty of open land to build on, there are several lots for sale in Hopewell, ranging from 1 acre for $60,000 to 86 acres for $860,000. Single family, 1,000- to 2,000-square-foot ranch and raised ranch homes and smaller cottage farmhouses are typically priced between $300,000 to $600,000. Larger, 2,000- to 5,000-square-foot Farmhouse Revivals, contemporary homes and estates, some on multiple acres with spacious back patios and front porches, sell for $650,000 to upwards of $4 million.

Playing at Maury County Park

North of Hopewell, right outside of Columbia, locals enjoy the 242-acred Maury County Park. This park offers sports fields for both little leagues and adult leagues, equestrian facilities for horse enthusiasts, playgrounds and several wooded walking trails, and even Muletown Bark Park for furry friends. Nearby, the Ridley Sports Complex is well known in the area for hosting teams like the Lady Volunteers softball team, holding up to 3,000 spectators cheering on athletes on the diamonds or soccer fields—which are well-lit with LED lights.

Maury County schools and schoolhouses

The Maury County School District serves students living in the Hopewell area. Young learners can begin their education journey at J.R. Baker Elementary School, which boasts a B-minus Niche grade and a 12-1 student-teacher ratio. As they progress, students can move up to Whitthorne Middle School, graded a C on Niche. Older learners can attend Mt. Pleasant High School or Columbia Central High School, both given a B-minus Niche grade. Also in the area, Culleoka Unit School serves students from Pre-K through twelfth grade, with a student-teacher ratio of 15 to 1. “Many families prefer this school, so their children can stay at the same place with the same faces from grade school through graduation,” says Sally Woodard, a Broker at Crye-Leike, Inc. with 46 years of experience in the area.

Historic homes turned wedding venues

Just outside the city limits of Columbia, weddings and other events take place at The Antrim, a private 300-acre space where Maury County’s first brick house was built. The Antrim makes for great photoshoots, as Little Big Town shot their 2016 album cover there. “The Antrim is a privately owned home that hosts events like the Rotary Sunset Symphony and the James K. Polk Ball,” Hickman adds. Seven miles southwest of Hopewell, Cypress Barn at Miller Lake is another picturesque wedding and event venue set on quaint Miller Lake.

Two-laned Route 31

U.S. Route 31 runs right through town, leading north for 55 miles to Nashville and 70 miles south to Huntsville. While Hopewell is a car-dependent country neighborhood without many options for shopping and dining, two-lane highways take residents where they need to go. But when it’s time to settle in for the night, locals rest easy on their bucolic, countryside properties tucked away from neighbors and noise.

Shopping and dining in Columbia

“Often, Hopewell locals will go into Culleoka, where Campbell’s Station makes the best steaks. Motorcyclists will even drive out of their way to stop into this restored old grocery store, which was featured on the Tennessee Crossroads show,” Hickman says. “And Legends Restaurant is a local favorite, often packed by noon because they also make great steaks,” Woodard adds. On the way into Columbia, Hopewell residents can stop at Catfish Campus Restaurant for some southern-style fried fish or stuffed crab. Down the highway to the east, Joie’s Cajun Market is a local seafood restaurant serving fresh crab legs or shrimp boils in an eclectically colorful tin-sided building, only open for dinner. Also in Columbia, locals can pick up groceries and essentials at a variety of spots like Aldi, Piggly Wiggly, or Food Lion.
