Location and Daily Life in Brentwood Country Club
Brentwood Country Club sits along Franklin Road in the heart of Brentwood, Tennessee, occupying 215 acres of historic land just north of Murray Lane. This is one of the most coveted addresses in Williamson County, combining a private golf course lifestyle with a location that puts you minutes from everything Brentwood has to offer.
The neighborhood sits in the 37027 zip code, which consistently ranks among the most desirable in Middle Tennessee. Cool Springs shopping and dining is a short drive south. Downtown Brentwood’s boutique shops and restaurants along Franklin Road are even closer. And when you want the energy of Nashville, you are roughly 20 minutes north on I-65.
What makes the location particularly appealing is the sense of seclusion you get while being so centrally located. The homes are set along Midway Circle, Herschel Spears Circle, and Country Club Drive, with the championship golf course winding through the property. Mature trees, rolling terrain, and the absence of through-traffic create a feeling of privacy that is hard to replicate in Brentwood’s newer developments.
The property itself carries significant history. This land was once part of the antebellum Midway Plantation, owned by Lysander McGavock and his wife Elizabeth Crockett. The original McGavock family house, built in 1829, still stands today and serves as the clubhouse for Brentwood Country Club.
The Homes
Brentwood Country Club contains 137 luxury home sites, making it one of the more intimate golf course communities in Williamson County. The majority of homes were built between the late 1980s and early 2000s, with construction dates ranging from 1988 to 2001 among recent sales. A fully renovated home completed in 2025 recently hit the market, demonstrating the ongoing investment homeowners are making in this community.
Architectural styles lean heavily toward traditional and Tudor designs, along with some contemporary builds. All-brick exteriors dominate, with some homes incorporating stone accents. These are substantial residences, with recent sales ranging from 3,385 to nearly 6,000 square feet. Most homes offer 4 to 5 bedrooms and 3 to 5 full bathrooms.
Lot sizes in the community typically range from 0.32 to 0.44 acres. Several homes back directly to fairways, offering unobstructed golf course views that command premium pricing. Two- and three-car garages are standard, with many homes featuring side-entry or rear-entry configurations that enhance curb appeal.
Interior features commonly include hardwood flooring, high ceilings, formal living and dining rooms, eat-in kitchens with islands, and fireplaces. Many homes have finished basements, bonus rooms, and multiple flexible spaces that current owners use for home offices, media rooms, or guest suites.

The Country Club and Amenities
Brentwood Country Club is a private club with a full membership of 475 golf members and an extended waiting list. The club opened in 1960 and has been a cornerstone of Brentwood’s social scene for over six decades. Membership is by invitation only, and while living in the subdivision does not automatically grant membership, residents have the advantage of proximity and community connections.
The centerpiece is the 18-hole championship golf course, designed by architect Gary Rogers Baird. The course underwent an extensive renovation in 2022-2023, with the redesign supervised by noted course architect Bill Bergin. The par-71 layout stretches over 6,400 yards with a slope rating of 135, providing a challenging but enjoyable experience for players at every level.
Beyond golf, the club offers a swimming pool and recreation area, tennis courts, a fitness and wellness center, and dining facilities. The historic McGavock clubhouse hosts social events, holiday gatherings, and private functions throughout the year. The club also runs junior golf camps and participates in the Williamson County Summer League swim team program.
Membership categories include Full Golf, Young Adult Golf (ages 31-36), Junior Executive Golf (under 31), and Social memberships. Social members enjoy access to the pool, fitness facility, clubhouse dining, and social events, plus limited golf privileges as a guest of a golf member up to six times per calendar year.
HOA dues for the residential subdivision run approximately $175 per quarter ($700 per year), which covers common area maintenance and trash pickup. Club membership dues are separate from HOA fees.

Why Work with Nashville Home Guru
In Brentwood Country Club, Compass and Parks agents represented 28.6% of all home sales over the past 12 months, with 2 of 7 transactions involving a Compass agent on either the listing or buying side. That level of activity in a community with only 137 homes means we see what is happening before most agents even know a property is available.
For buyers, the case for working with Nashville Home Guru in a 137-home golf community is straightforward. Inventory here is genuinely limited, and the properties that command the premium on golf-course-facing lots rarely surface through public portals before serious buyers have already been contacted. Patrick Higgins and the Nashville Home Guru team at Compass maintain relationships within this community and have access to Compass Private Exclusives and Coming Soon listings before they hit MLS. In a market where the median is $1.75 million and fairway-facing lots push prices materially above that, being first to a property is worth real money. And buyer representation in Tennessee costs the buyer nothing.
Nashville Home Guru is a data-driven team led by Patrick Higgins, a six-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent. Ranked the #1 team in Nashville and #7 in Tennessee by Wall Street Journal’s RealTrends, the team has completed over 1,100 transactions totaling more than $500 million in residential sales across Middle Tennessee.
Compass is the #1 residential real estate brokerage in the United States by sales volume. After merging with Parks Real Estate in 2024, Compass agents represent approximately 1 in 4 homes sold in Tennessee. That network gives our buyers access to coming-soon listings, private exclusives, and the largest referral network in real estate. For a community like Brentwood Country Club where inventory is limited and turnover is low, that access matters.
For sellers, our Compass 3-Phase Marketing Strategy delivers 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 experience a price reduction. In a luxury community where 2.9% can mean $50,000 or more on a single transaction, that advantage is significant.
