Rolling hills and wooded landscapes
A few minutes west of Music City, the rolling landscape of Tennessee renders a quiet and small-town atmosphere, which is where Hillwood hangs its hat. Living only 8 miles from Nashville, locals feel like they’ve traded in the buzz of the city for space and privacy—without giving up the convenience. The green and spacious suburb has long been developed, but recent residents are adding new life while maintaining the area’s natural landscape. “What I really appreciate is all the space, most houses sit on at least an acre. When I drive around, the landscape and wildlife are always gorgeous,” says Tara McGuire, a Hillwood local and Realtor at Happy Tara Homes Real Estate. “Lots of residents are original owners from when the neighborhood was built in the ‘50s and ‘60s, but younger families are moving in and renovating."
