Blackman Station

MURFREESBORO’S LENNAR TOWNHOME & SINGLE-FAMILY COMMUNITY

Location & Daily Life

Blackman Station sits off Manson Pike in the 37128 zip code of southwest Murfreesboro, a location that puts residents within minutes of everyday conveniences while keeping them insulated from the city’s busiest corridors. The neighborhood feeds directly into Murfreesboro’s well-regarded Blackman school cluster, which is a top draw for families relocating from outside Rutherford County.

Grocery runs, restaurants, and retail along South Church Street and Medical Center Parkway are all within a short drive. Old Fort Park, one of Murfreesboro’s premier recreational destinations, is just a few miles away and offers soccer fields, disc golf, and greenway trails along the Stones River. Commuters heading toward Nashville have quick access to I-840 and US-231, making the location practical for those working throughout Middle Tennessee.

The neighborhood itself has a low-maintenance, walkable feel that appeals to first-time buyers, young families, and buyers looking to simplify their housing overhead. Streets carry names pulled straight from Middle-earth and Westeros — Tolkien Lane, Gandalf Lane, Aragorn Way, Frodo Way, and Lannister Avenue — giving the community a distinctive character that buyers tend to remember.

The Homes

Blackman Station was developed by Lennar, one of the country’s largest national homebuilders, and includes two distinct property types built between 2020 and 2021. The community offers attached townhomes and detached single-family homes — making it one of the more versatile entry-level communities in the 37128 zip code.

The townhomes range from roughly 1,280 to 1,772 square feet and are three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath configurations. These are ideal for buyers who want a low-maintenance lifestyle, since HOA dues cover exterior maintenance and grounds care. The single-family homes are larger, ranging from approximately 2,022 to 2,573 square feet with four bedrooms, two full baths, and a half bath on a typical lot of 0.18 to 0.29 acres. Both collections feature traditional architecture with two-car garages, open main floor layouts, and finishes consistent with Lennar’s production-build standards.

Community amenities include a playground, dog park, sidewalks, and underground utilities throughout. The community is fully built out, meaning all residents are established homeowners rather than a mix of owners and construction crews — a factor that matters to buyers who want a settled neighborhood.

Amenities

Blackman Station’s on-site amenities are focused on everyday livability rather than resort-style extras — and for many buyers, that’s exactly the point. The community includes a playground, a dedicated dog park, neighborhood sidewalks, and underground utilities throughout. The HOA structure for townhome owners adds exterior maintenance and grounds care to the covered services, which is a meaningful benefit for buyers who want to trade yard work for time.

Beyond the neighborhood boundaries, residents have easy access to Old Fort Park and the Stones River Greenway for cycling and walking trails, as well as multiple fitness centers, youth sports leagues, and parks throughout the Blackman corridor. The proximity to Murfreesboro’s commercial districts on South Church Street means dining, shopping, and entertainment are all within a short drive.

Schools

Blackman Station sits entirely in Rutherford County, and all homes in the community are zoned for the Blackman school cluster within Rutherford County Schools. This is confirmed by the MLS data for every closed sale in the neighborhood.

Students in Blackman Station attend Blackman Elementary School, Blackman Middle School, and Blackman High School. Blackman High School has consistently been one of the stronger performing high schools in Rutherford County and is a significant factor for families evaluating this area. Rutherford County Schools is a well-funded district that has invested heavily in its Blackman corridor facilities in recent years to keep pace with southwest Murfreesboro’s growth. Always verify current zoning directly with Rutherford County Schools, as boundaries can change.

Why Work with Nashville Home Guru

Compass and affiliated agents represented 1 in 12 closed transactions in Blackman Station over the past 12 months. That number reflects a small, fully built-out community, but it understates what Compass’s national network brings to buyers and sellers here. With Compass operating as the number one residential real estate brokerage in the United States by sales volume, and having merged with Parks Real Estate in 2024, Compass agents now represent approximately 1 in 4 homes sold across Tennessee.

Patrick Higgins leads the Nashville Home Guru team at Compass, a six-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent who ranks as the number one team in Nashville and number seven in Tennessee according to the Wall Street Journal RealTrends rankings. Patrick has closed more than 1,100 transactions and $500M in career residential sales across Middle Tennessee, with a deep focus on Murfreesboro and the surrounding Rutherford County market.

For buyers, working with Nashville Home Guru means early access to Compass Private Exclusive listings and Coming Soon properties that never appear on Zillow or Redfin. In a market like the Blackman corridor where turnover is limited and competition for move-in-ready homes is real, that pipeline matters. For sellers in Blackman Station, it means the ability to test pricing with a select audience before going public — a strategy that Compass data shows produces a 2.9% higher closing price, 20% faster contract, and 30% less likelihood of a price reduction.

Compass’s Three Phase Marketing Strategy gives Blackman Station sellers a structural advantage. Phase 1 starts as a Private Exclusive on Compass.com — ideal for testing price with qualified buyers before accumulating days on market. Phase 2 launches as a Coming Soon listing, building buyer demand without triggering the clock. Phase 3 goes fully public on the MLS and third-party sites with maximum exposure.

The average sale price across both property types is approximately $368,000. These figures reflect closed transactions and are a more reliable indicator of actual market value than list prices.

Who built Blackman Station?
Blackman Station was developed by Lennar, one of the largest national homebuilders in the country. Lennar built the community in phases between 2020 and 2021, offering both townhome and single-family collections. The community is fully built out, so all homes in Blackman Station are resale properties.

What are the HOA fees in Blackman Station?
HOA fees vary by property type. Townhome owners pay between $127 and $160 per month (approximately $1,524 to $1,920 per year), which typically covers exterior maintenance, grounds maintenance, and in some cases trash and insurance. Single-family homeowners pay approximately $75 per month ($900 per year) for grounds maintenance. These figures are based on MLS data for recently closed sales and should be verified with the HOA prior to purchase.

What schools serve Blackman Station?
All homes in Blackman Station are zoned for the Blackman school cluster within Rutherford County Schools: Blackman Elementary School, Blackman Middle School, and Blackman High School. This zoning is confirmed by the county data in the MLS for every closed sale in the neighborhood. Rutherford County Schools is a strong district and the Blackman cluster is among the most sought-after in Murfreesboro. Always confirm zoning directly with the district before making a purchase decision.

What amenities does Blackman Station have?
The community features a playground, dog park, sidewalks throughout, and underground utilities. Townhome owners also benefit from HOA-covered exterior and grounds maintenance, eliminating most of the upkeep burden associated with traditional homeownership. There is no community pool or clubhouse.

What type of buyer is Blackman Station best suited for?
Blackman Station attracts two main buyer profiles. First-time buyers and young families gravitate toward the townhomes: the price point is accessible, the HOA covers exterior maintenance, and the Blackman school cluster is a major draw. Move-up buyers or those needing more space tend toward the single-family section, which offers four bedrooms and larger lots while staying well below the $500,000 threshold. The neighborhood also appeals to buyers relocating to Murfreesboro who want a move-in-ready, established Lennar community without taking on new construction risk.
