A developer plans to add 191 homesites adjacent to a neighborhood it has established in Dickson, a small but growing city on the western edge of the Nashville metropolitan area.

Richmond American Homes, a subsidiary of Sekisui House U.S., Inc., purchased land for the new single-family homes next door to Seasons at Hickory Pointe, one of its existing developments about 35 miles from the "Music City." The company said in a statement that the location will appeal to buyers given its proximity to a number of parks and recreation centers and shopping in downtown Dickson.

“Dickson stands out as a prime location for new development,” said Toby Jorgensen, a senior director of market analytics for Homes.com. “Thanks to its strategic location along Interstate 40 and U.S. Route 70, Dickson provides connectivity to other locations throughout the metropolitan area. This balance of rural living and urban accessibility has helped the area's population growth of over 11% just in the past decade.”

Dickson’s population was about 17,000 in 2024, according to the Tennessee State Data Center. Dickson County, which surrounds the city, counted roughly 58,000 people. The median sale price over the past 12 months in the city was $349,900, according to Homes.com data.

A Richmond American spokesperson did not immediately respond to questions about the new homes’ size or their cost.

The homes in Seasons at Hickory Pointe, including ranches and two-story houses, started in the $300,000 range, the company said in a 2024 statement launching sales there. The houses had up to six bedrooms and about 2,700 square feet of living space.
