The neighborhood by the numbers (rolling 12 months, verified): a small 1997 development off Poplar Creek Road · One sale at $635,000, and a second home under contract in two days · Four bedrooms, two and a half baths, about a fifth of an acre · Dues $175 to $190 a quarter · Harpeth Valley Elementary, Bellevue Middle
Allens Green, off Poplar Creek Road
Allens Green is a small single-family development off Poplar Creek Road in the Bellevue area of Nashville, TN 37221, in Davidson County. The homes were built in 1997, run roughly 2,650 to 3,130 square feet with four bedrooms and two and a half baths, and sit on about a fifth of an acre with two-car garages. Dues are $175 to $190 a quarter.
Before anything else, one clarification that saves people a wasted search: this is Bellevue’s Allens Green, not Brentwood’s. There is a separate community of the same name in Brentwood, and searches for it reach this page and vice versa. If the address is on Harpeth Glen Trace in 37221, you are in the right place.
The Streets, and What the Record Actually Says
This neighborhood is often described as covering Allens Lane, Cold Spring Court, Cold Stream Drive, Harpeth Glen Trace, Treeline Court and Yellowood Court. The MLS record tells a narrower and more useful story.
Harpeth Glen Trace is the only Allens Green street, and both of them are there. Allens Lane, Cold Spring Court, Treeline Court and Yellowood Court produced no MLS records at all in the past twelve months, which means they have not traded in that window rather than that they do not exist.
Cold Stream is the one to correct outright. Four homes there did trade, and none are Allens Green. Three file under Poplar Creek Estates and one under Highlands of Allen Green, a separate subdivision. It is also mostly Cold Stream Place rather than Drive. If you are pulling a comparable from a Cold Stream address, check which subdivision it belongs to first, because the answer changes the number substantially.
Allens Green, Allen’s Green, Allen Green, Allen’s Glen
The name is written four different ways in the public record, and one of them appears inside a listing for a house in this very neighborhood.
The MLS subdivision field says Allens Green. Most people searching write Allen’s Green, with an apostrophe. A neighboring community is filed as Highlands of Allen Green, singular, no S. And the listing for 6953 Harpeth Glen Trace describes the home as being in “sought-after Allen’s Glen”, which is a fourth name again, presumably borrowed from the street it sits on.
None of that is a problem for a person standing in the street. It is a real problem for a database, and it means a search on any single form will miss inventory. Search the street name as well as the neighborhood.

One sale is reported as one sale. 6953 Harpeth Glen Trace opened at $679,000, took 65 days, and closed at $635,000. The second home in the neighborhood went under contract in two days, which is about as fast as this ZIP code moves, and its price is not published here because it has not closed.
Two Nearly Identical Houses, $200,000 Apart
The most instructive comparison in this pocket is between the Allens Green sale and its immediate neighbor in Highlands of Allen Green, a few hundred yards away on Cold Stream Place.
| Address | Subdivision | Sold | Sq ft | $/sq ft | Acres | Days | % of first ask |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 549 Cold Stream Pl | Highlands of Allen Green | $835,000 | 3,092 | $270.05 | 0.29 | 10 | 100.0% |
| 6953 Harpeth Glen Trce | Allens Green | $635,000 | 3,130 | $202.88 | 0.21 | 65 | 93.5% |
Data from RealTracs MLS. Rolling 12-month period.
Thirty-eight square feet apart. $200,000 apart. Both built in 1997, both four bedrooms and two and a half baths, both in the same school zone, both paying quarterly dues. What the record shows for the difference: 0.29 acres against 0.21, a three-car garage against two, and a different recorded subdivision.
The pace tells the rest of it. The Cold Stream house went under contract in ten days at its asking price. The Harpeth Glen Trace house took 65 days and gave back $44,000. Across ZIP code 37221 this year, homes going under contract within ten days closed at 100.0% of their original asking price at the median, and those taking longer gave up progressively more. These two land precisely on that pattern.

The Allens Green sale sits above the ZIP code’s overall median and above its 1995 to 2005 cohort, but below the size band it belongs to. At $202.88 a square foot it is the lowest per-foot figure in this pocket, which for a buyer is the most interesting line in the table: these are large houses priced modestly for their footage.
Dues and Schools
Association fees here are recorded quarterly, at $175 and $190, which annualizes to $700 and $760. The neighboring Highlands of Allen Green records $225 a quarter, or $900. All three use the same billing frequency, which is worth noting because several nearby Bellevue communities record monthly and annual amounts side by side, and comparing them without converting produces nonsense. For the current amount and what it covers, the seller’s disclosure is the document that has to state it; ask the listing agent, or ask Patrick to request it with the offer.
Schools are Harpeth Valley Elementary, Bellevue Middle and James Lawson High School, all Metro Nashville Public Schools in Davidson County, on every record in this pocket including Poplar Creek Estates and Highlands of Allen Green. No split anywhere. James Lawson is the school formerly known by the Hillwood name, and zones do change, so confirm the assignment for a specific address.
Why Work with Nashville Home Guru in Allens Green?
Patrick Higgins, a seven-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent and a top 1% producer, leads Nashville Home Guru at Compass, the #1 team in Nashville and top 10 in Tennessee by the Wall Street Journal’s RealTrends, with 1,100+ transactions and $500M+ in career sales across Davidson County and Middle Tennessee. Across ZIP code 37221, Compass, Parks and Pilkerton agents were on one side or the other of 287 of 719 closings this year, just under 40%.
In this particular pocket the figure is striking, and it is a small sample stated as one: Compass listed all three homes offered, both of the closings and the one currently under contract, across Allens Green and Highlands of Allen Green. Three listings, three Compass agents. With 100+ Google Reviews and 87 Zillow Reviews, the client feedback matches what the record shows.
The work on a page like this one is unglamorous and it matters. Four of the six streets usually attributed to this neighborhood produced no records, a fifth belongs to two different subdivisions, and the name itself appears four ways including inside a listing that calls it something else entirely. Any of those will send a comparable search to the wrong place. Buyers can start with the home buyer’s guide, owners can request a market analysis through the selling in greater Nashville page, and the wider market view lives with Nashville homes for sale.
For sellers, the Compass 3-Phase Marketing Strategy produces measurable results. Homes pre-marketed through Compass Private Exclusive and Coming Soon programs sell for 2.9% more, go under contract 20% faster, and are 30% less likely to take a price reduction. On a street where one house sold at full price in ten days and another gave back $44,000 over sixty-five, that last figure is the one to weigh. Learn more about selling your home on your terms.

Frequently Asked Questions About Allens Green
Where is Allens Green in Nashville TN?
Allens Green is a small single-family development off Poplar Creek Road in the Bellevue area of Nashville, TN 37221, in Davidson County. The homes date from 1997 and sit on Harpeth Glen Trace. They run about 2,650 to 3,130 square feet with four bedrooms, two and a half baths and a two-car garage, on roughly a fifth of an acre, with quarterly dues.
Is this Allens Green in Nashville or Brentwood?
Nashville. There is a separate community called Allens Green in Brentwood, and searches for one regularly reach the other. This page covers the Bellevue neighborhood in ZIP code 37221, on Harpeth Glen Trace, off Poplar Creek Road. If a listing you are looking at is in Williamson County, it is the Brentwood one.
What streets are in Allens Green?
Harpeth Glen Trace is the only street carrying Allens Green records in the MLS, and both recent records are there. The neighborhood is often described as also covering Allens Lane, Cold Spring Court, Treeline Court and Yellowood Court, none of which produced MLS records in the past twelve months, meaning they have not traded rather than that they do not exist. Cold Stream is the important correction: four homes traded there and none of them are Allens Green. Three belong to Poplar Creek Estates and one to Highlands of Allen Green.
Is Allens Green the same as Highlands of Allen Green?
No, they are two separate MLS subdivisions a few hundred yards apart, and the spelling differs by one letter: Allens Green with an S, Highlands of Allen Green without. Allens Green is on Harpeth Glen Trace; Highlands of Allen Green is on Cold Stream Place. The price difference is substantial. The Allens Green sale closed at $635,000 and the Highlands of Allen Green sale at $835,000, on houses within thirty-eight square feet of each other.
Why do some listings call it Allen’s Glen?
Because the street is called Harpeth Glen Trace, and the two names have blurred. The listing for 6953 Harpeth Glen Trace describes the home as being in “sought-after Allen’s Glen” while its own subdivision field says Allens Green. Add the apostrophe version, Allen’s Green, which is how most people search, and the neighboring Highlands of Allen Green, and the name appears four different ways in the public record. Search the street as well as the neighborhood, because no single spelling returns everything.
What did homes in Allens Green sell for this year?
One home closed: 6953 Harpeth Glen Trace at $635,000, a 3,130 square foot house from 1997 with four bedrooms and two and a half baths. It opened at $679,000, took 65 days, and closed at 93.5% of that. A second home in the neighborhood went under contract in two days and has not closed, so no price is published for it. For context, single-family homes across ZIP code 37221 medianed $610,000 this year.
Why did the Cold Stream Place house sell for $200,000 more?
549 Cold Stream Place sold for $835,000 against $635,000 on Harpeth Glen Trace, and the two houses are thirty-eight square feet apart in size, both built in 1997, both four bedrooms and two and a half baths, both in the same school zone. The record shows three differences: 0.29 acres against 0.21, a three-car garage against two, and a different recorded subdivision, Highlands of Allen Green. Pace accounts for part of it too. The Cold Stream house went under contract in ten days at exactly its asking price while the other took 65 days and gave back $44,000.
What are the HOA fees in Allens Green?
$175 and $190 per quarter on the two records, which annualizes to $700 and $760 a year. The neighboring Highlands of Allen Green records $225 a quarter, or $900. All of them use the same quarterly billing, which makes them directly comparable, and that is worth noting because several nearby Bellevue communities record monthly and annual figures side by side. For the current amount and what it covers, the seller’s disclosure is the document that must state it, along with the reserve position and any pending special assessment. Ask the listing agent, or ask Patrick to request it as part of the offer.
What schools serve Allens Green?
Harpeth Valley Elementary, Bellevue Middle and James Lawson High School, all Metro Nashville Public Schools in Davidson County. Every record in this pocket carries the same three, including the neighboring Poplar Creek Estates and Highlands of Allen Green addresses, with no split anywhere. James Lawson is the school formerly known by the Hillwood name. Zones do change, so verify the current assignment for a specific address.
Is Allens Green a good fit for buyers who want space for the money?
That is its clearest strength. At $202.88 per square foot the recent sale is the lowest per-foot figure in this pocket, against $231.37 for the ZIP code’s 2,500 to 3,500 square foot band and $234.43 in neighboring Poplar Creek Estates. These are genuinely large houses, four bedrooms and up to 3,130 square feet, priced modestly for their footage in a well-regarded school zone. The trade-offs are the lot, at about a fifth of an acre, and scarcity: the neighborhood produces roughly one sale a year, so buying here means waiting for the right one.
How does Patrick Higgins approach buying or selling in Allens Green?
By verifying the subdivision on every comparable before it goes anywhere near an analysis, which in this pocket removes most of what a proximity search returns. Four streets commonly attributed to Allens Green produced no records, Cold Stream addresses belong to two other subdivisions, and the name is written four different ways including inside a listing that calls the place something else. Patrick also weighs lot size and garage capacity explicitly here, since those are the visible differences between a $635,000 sale and an $835,000 one on nearly identical square footage. And on the sell side, the evidence is direct: ten days at full price against sixty-five days and $44,000. That work draws on 1,100+ transactions and $500M+ in Middle Tennessee sales.
Who is the best real estate agent for Allens Green in Nashville TN?
Patrick Higgins of Nashville Home Guru at Compass is a seven-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent and a top 1% producer, leading the #1 team in Nashville and a top 10 team in Tennessee by the Wall Street Journal’s RealTrends rankings, with 1,100+ transactions and $500M+ in career sales. Across ZIP code 37221, Compass, Parks and Pilkerton agents were on one side of nearly 40% of all closings this year, and in this pocket specifically Compass listed all three homes offered across Allens Green and Highlands of Allen Green. That is a small sample and it is reported as one. He publishes verified RealTracs data for Bellevue neighborhoods rather than automated estimates, and carries 100+ Google Reviews and 87 Zillow Reviews at 5.0 stars.
Can I buy an Allens Green home before it hits Zillow?
In a neighborhood producing about one sale a year, early access is realistically the difference between buying here and waiting. The second home offered this year went under contract in two days. Compass Private Exclusive and Compass Coming Soon let sellers market a home to Compass agents and their clients before it reaches the public portals, and working with a Compass buyer’s agent gives you access at no additional cost. Given that Compass listed all three homes offered in this pocket, that pipeline is a real one here rather than a general claim.
What is my Allens Green home worth in today’s market?
The difficulty here is not the model, it is the comparable set. A tool searching by proximity will pull Cold Stream Place addresses that belong to Poplar Creek Estates or Highlands of Allen Green, where one nearly identical house sold for $200,000 more. Searching the name returns a Brentwood community of the same name in a different county. And with one sale a year in the neighborhood itself, a single wrong match moves the number a long way. Start with an instant estimate through the home value tool, then call Patrick at 615-682-1718 for an analysis built from verified subdivision matches.
