Among the verdant plains of Central Tennessee, Fairview offers a bucolic rural lifestyle without compromising on the community and conveniences of city living. Less than 30 miles west of Nashville, the city boasts exceptional schools, unique shops and restaurants, and outdoor recreation while fostering a small-town atmosphere. “Fairview and Williams County as a whole have a country community feel that’s different to the rest of the state,” says local expert Beverly Totty, broker and owner of Totty Realty and Associates. “We have large lots, plenty of trees and pocket parks throughout the community that create that rural vibe.”
Fairview is around 32 miles away from Downtown Nashville
Fairview was incorporated on July 28, 1959 in Williamson County.

Charming cottages to sprawling estates
Fairview’s pastoral basin is dotted with residences that reflect the bucolic environment, typically on half-acre to one-acre lots, though some properties expand over 100 acres. Home styles range considerably; find brick colonials built in the 70s to 90s on modest lots, contemporary custom homes from the 2000s, and traditional farmhouse styles and modern cathedral designs erected in the last 10 years. The median price for real estate hovers at $500,000, though price tags can range from $290,000 for modest ranch styles to estates listed in the multi-millions – working farms sprawling 300 acres can fetch up to $65 million. “A great thing about Fairview is your ability to find something from $350,000 to $3 million and anything in between,” says Totty, who has 33 years of experience in real estate.
Many homes in the city of Fairview are newer builds with a variety of styles.
Craftsman farmhouses are the newest to join the surrounding city of Fairview.

A daytime destination
Fairview’s town center consists of rustic antique stores and cozy restaurants that celebrate the rural Tennessee setting. “It’s a day destination for shopping and dining,” Totty says. Favorite eateries for residents and visitors alike include the world-famous Country Café, with its finger-licking good fried chicken, and Thompson’s Restaurant, which puts an elevated, contemporary twist on southern plates. Publix and Walmart fulfill grocery needs, while a wider variety of stores are found in neighboring Franklin, Dickson or Downtown Nashville.
Fairview residents have multiple areas to shop at including Walmart.
Publix is the main grocery store that locals can pick up necessities in Fairview.

Best school district in Nashville
Realtor Totty states that the top-rated schools are continually the number one reason residents seek out the area. Students in Fairview are zoned to attend public schools within the Williamson County School District, ranked the best school district in the Nashville area by Niche. Kids start their academic journey at Fairview Elementary before continuing to Fairview Middle, both earning an A overall rating. At B-graded Fairview High School, students can participate in various academic, creative and athletic activities, including early college programs in mechanical engineering, health sciences and education.

Surrounded by nature
Though the bucolic scenery is all around, residents take advantage of the outdoors at the natural amenities and facilities at Bowie Nature Park. “Bowie Nature Park is Fairview’s crown jewel,” Totty says. “The 700 acres in the heart of the city create a very nature-driven setting.” People take in the views along the 17 miles of trails on foot, bike, or horse, kids take to the park’s wooden playground, and anglers set up along the five fishing lakes. The grounds are also home to the Bowie Museum, which hosts nature programs and educational camps for all ages to learn about the local flora and fauna.
Fairview has a recreation center and a park with soccer fields and a pool for summer activities.
Fairview Ball Park has a playground and multiple baseball fields for practicing in Fairview.

Small-town celebrations
Seasonal events in Fairview bring the community together, Realtor Totty says. In the summer, folks gather at the Bowie Nature Park for live concerts, and in the fall, Fairview hosts a Nature Fest to celebrate its lush landscape and conservation efforts. The city’s Independence Day celebration takes place annually on the 3rd of July, complete with fireworks. And wintertime sees Fairview in full festive spirit, including a Christmas parade down the illuminated, decorated streets.
Residents can mosey in to Farm Fresh Vintage Finds in Fairview to hunt for new and used goods.

Location is everything
Though residences are tucked in the rural scenery, access to amenities is not far away for the car-dependent city. Interstate 40, Interstate 840 and State Route 100 are nearby, allowing easy access for residents wanting to connect to neighboring communities. “When it comes to Fairview, I always tell my clients: location, location, location,” Totty says. “You have the convenience of three interstates, and it’s less than 20 minutes to Nashville.”
