Blackberry Ridge

LEIPERS FORK’S EXCLUSIVE LUXURY ESTATE COMMUNITY

Location and Setting

Blackberry Ridge sits in the rolling hills where Franklin meets Leipers Fork, offering one of the most private luxury home settings in all of Williamson County. This exclusive community of just 15 estate homesites spans heavily wooded acreage along Cobbler Ridge Road, with each lot ranging from 2.25 to over 4 acres. The community preserves 87 acres of dedicated green space, creating a park-like atmosphere where homes feel genuinely secluded from one another.

Getting to Leipers Fork village takes about five minutes from the neighborhood entrance. From there, downtown Franklin is roughly 15 minutes away, while Nashville sits about 45 minutes north depending on traffic. The Natchez Trace Parkway runs nearby, providing a scenic route into Nashville that avoids interstate congestion entirely.

The village of Leipers Fork itself has become a destination for artists, musicians, and those seeking a slower pace without sacrificing access to city amenities. You’ll find local galleries, farm-to-table dining at places like Puckett’s Grocery, and a genuine small-town atmosphere that draws visitors from across Middle Tennessee.

The Homes

Blackberry Ridge features custom luxury homes built by Hewn Custom Home Design and Southern Elite Custom Homes, two of Middle Tennessee’s premier custom builders. These are not production homes with minor upgrades. Each residence is individually designed with buyer input, featuring custom floor plans, premium finishes, and architectural details you won’t find in typical subdivisions.

Homes range from approximately 3,800 to over 5,800 square feet, with most featuring 4 to 5 bedrooms and 4 or more bathrooms. Common features across completed homes include locally harvested white oak beams, vaulted ceilings with architectural details, gourmet kitchens with professional-grade appliances (Thermador and GE Cafe packages are common), and expansive covered outdoor living spaces with fireplaces.

Primary suites typically occupy the main level with spa-inspired bathrooms featuring walk-through showers, soaking tubs, double vanities, and oversized walk-in closets. Second floors often include bonus rooms, media rooms, and secondary bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. Every Hewn Custom Home features encapsulated and conditioned crawl spaces for improved energy efficiency and air quality.

Construction materials lean toward timeless elegance: fiber cement and stone exteriors, composition shingle roofing, finished hardwood and tile flooring throughout. The architectural style blends rustic farmhouse elements with contemporary luxury, creating homes that feel both substantial and livable.

Community Features and Amenities

Blackberry Ridge takes a different approach than gated communities with extensive amenities. The focus here is on privacy, natural beauty, and land preservation rather than pools, clubhouses, or fitness centers. What you get instead is 87 acres of permanently protected green space woven throughout the community, creating walking trails and natural buffers between homesites.

Each lot is heavily wooded, providing genuine privacy from neighbors. Many homesites feature mature hardwoods that have been carefully preserved during construction. The wooded acreage behind homes offers opportunities for gardens, hobby farms, or simply enjoying the wildlife that frequents the area.

The community connects to the broader Leipers Fork area, which offers its own character-filled amenities: galleries, antique shops, live music venues, and restaurants that have made the village a destination in its own right. The annual Leipers Fork Christmas Parade, hillbilly half marathon, and various festivals throughout the year add to the community atmosphere.

Utilities include city water with individual septic systems, which is typical for estate-lot communities in this area. Underground utilities keep the streetscape clean and uncluttered.
