Tennessee City
Modern ranch-style homes on large lots
Winding streets are scattered with traditional homes to small, ranch-style builds and new construction. Prospective homebuyers can expect the price for a single-family house to hover around $350,000, while the median lot size is just under 2.5 acres. “Right around Tennessee City and the rural areas outside Dickson you get way more for your money. Finding land is almost as important as finding a home. So, when you have both, it’s a match made in heaven,” Southerland says. Prices can range from a three-bed newly built rambler for $330,000 to a colonial home on over 6 acres for $473,000. Multimillion-dollar properties are also available, ranging from $1 million to $2.6 million for a traditional farmhouse sitting on 100 acres. Buyers can also opt to build their own home, with 5 to 10-acre tracts priced between $105,000 and $150,000, while 50 to 100-acre tracts can sell for over $1 million.

Music under the Tennessee sky
Residents may have little going on in town, but a mere 8 miles away, the city of Dickson holds numerous annual events. Events include Music in the Park, where locals gather at Holland Park and enjoy dancing and singing to live music in the summer, and an annual fishing rodeo for kids during the first week of June. However, in honor of the “old timers” around town, the Old Timers Day Festival is the most significant event of the year, consisting of a parade, live music and activities for kids.Community connections
US Route 70 is the main road running through town, connecting locals to Dickson to the east and McEwen to the west. US Route 46 is the second major thoroughfare, leading directly into Dickson for residents living further north or west towards Cumberland City. Interstate 40 borders the region to the south, providing locals a straight shot into the heart of downtown Nashville, about 50 miles away.
