Oak Highlands

Subdivisions with many Traditionals
The subdivisions in this area are largely filled with rows of closely placed houses, a number of which exist along hilly roads and come with short and sloping driveways. Narrow walking paths in front of many houses make it easy for residents to go on neighborhood strolls. The Oak Highlands subdivision has many modern Traditional houses with prominent brick exteriors. The same style can be seen in much of the Hidden Creek community, but vinyl sidings become far more common. Hidden Creek also features a little more architectural variety with some Craftsmen found in between the larger two-story houses. Lenox Village boasts even more variety with its condo and apartment buildings and blocks dense with townhouses. One apartment community in Lenox Village features distinct amenities like a private movie theater. Price points for single-family houses can run from $385,000 for a less than 2,000-square-foot Traditional to just over $600,000 for a larger and new Craftsman. For townhouses, price points can go from just under $400,000 for ones that are about 1,500 square feet or less to $470,000 for one over 2,000 square feet. A two-bedroom condo that’s around 1,000 square feet can go for just under or over $300,000. The most recent average sale price in Oaks Highland is just over $200,000 less than the entire Nashville area. “Compared to other parts of Nashville, it’s attractive for first-time homebuyers,” says Andrea Niemiec, a Realtor and partner on Parks’ Nashville Redefined team.Lenox Village staples and new Tanger Outlets
Whether it’s along Nolensville Pike or I-24, plenty of shopping and dining options can be found on either side of Oak Highlands. A few community staples occupy the bottom floors of Lenox Village’s mixed-use complex and provide outdoor seating. The options at the Burger Republic include egg-topped patties that patrons often pair with a side of tater tots. The menu at the Umami Asian Fusion around the corner includes Korean, Japanese and Thai choices. Sweetwaters Coffee & Tea cake slices and egg and cheese biscuit and bagel varieties to go with the beverages. Farther up the road is Edley's Bar-B-Que, an acclaimed Nashville-based chain well known for its use of white oak to smoke its meats. A drive south on Nolensville Pike leads to a Publix and Kroger. The Tanger Outlets has also created much buzz since it opened in the fall of 2023. Many in the area are now close to an open-air shopping site where they can find items going at reduced prices. Nike, Adidas and J. Crew Factory are a few of the name brands with stores in the outlet mall. Shoppers can also admire over a dozen murals across the site. A few of the images depicted include a group of flowers, a guitar and fiddle playing duo and a bubble-themed piece with “Nashville Forever” prominently written in the middle.Scenic greenway, soccer games and skating at Ford Ice Center
Those specifically in the Oak Highlands and Hidden Creek subdivisions are a hop away from a roughly 4-mile segment of the Mill Creek Greenway, which goes around Orchard Bend and Pettus parks. The greenway is popular among those looking to go on strolls, jogs or bike rides through a mix of scenic woodlands and open fields. Children enjoy burning off energy on the parks’ playgrounds, while various soccer teams often play on the surrounding multipurpose fields. Adults and children who have long wanted to try out ice skating can try out the activity at the Ford Ice Center’s Antioch location just east of Oak Highlands. They can also dabble in hockey and curling.

Some of the Lenox Village businesses like Blue Coast Burrito have put on Cinco de Mayo parties, while the neighborhood has organized events like Easter egg hunts in the pocket park on Lenox Village Drive. The Oak Highlands is also about 9 miles from the cities of Brentwood and La Vergne, which both put on their own July 4 celebrations.I-24 commuter route to downtown Nashville
