Brook Glen

ALL-BRICK HOMES ON BROOK GLEN WAY · OFF OLD HARDING PIKE · BELLEVUE 37221

What Brook Glen Is

Brook Glen is a single street. Every home in it sits on Brook Glen Way, off Poplar Creek Road near Old Harding Pike, in the pocket of small Bellevue neighborhoods clustered around the Riverbend colonies.

The houses date from the mid-1990s, are all brick, and are built for one-floor living. The home that sold here has all three bedrooms on the main level, including the primary suite, with a bonus room over the garage as the only thing upstairs. Lots are small, at about 0.17 acres, which is the trade for the layout and the price.

Three Days, and Basically Full Price

7708 Brook Glen Way listed on a Thursday and was under contract by Sunday. It closed for $499,450 against a $499,900 ask, which is $450 off, and the buyer paid cash.

Only 25 of 465 houses that sold in Bellevue this year went under contract that fast, about one in twenty, and as a group they closed at 100.0% of their opening price. This one landed at 99.9%. It was a single-owner home since 1996 with the HVAC, roof, kitchen and a bathroom done recently, and it was priced at a number the market agreed with on the first weekend.

What a Main-Floor Bedroom Is Worth in Bellevue

The layout is the reason this house moved, and the ZIP code puts a number on it. Sorting all 463 Bellevue sales that record the field:

That is about $18.50 more a square foot, roughly seven percent, and a full point more of the asking price. Brook Glen’s sale came in at $274.42 a foot, above the main-floor group and well above the $268.47 that Bellevue houses of 1,500 to 2,000 square feet median.

If you own here, that is the line to lead with when you sell, and it is worth more than the square footage. If you are buying, understand that you are competing for it. Just under half of Bellevue’s houses have it, and the ones that do sell faster and closer to their number.

This Corner of Bellevue Moves Faster Than the Rest

Brook Glen’s three days is not an outlier for this pocket. Look at the neighborhoods within half a mile and the pattern holds: East Colony At Riverbend went under contract in four days at 99.8% of asking, South Colony in nine days at 100.0%, Harpeth Village in ten at 99.9%, Magnolia Hills in eleven at 100.0% and Riverside in fourteen at 100.0%.

Six neighborhoods, all under fifteen days, all at 99.8% or better, against a Bellevue median of 33 days and 98.3%. Two nearby exceptions keep it honest: Bellevue Highlands averaged 48 days at 97.9% and Harpeth View 39 days at 95.4%. So this is a tendency in a specific pocket rather than a rule about the area, but if you are shopping here, expect to move quickly and expect to pay close to the ask.

Dues, Tax and Water

Dues are $100 a quarter, $400 a year, with a $100 transfer fee at closing. The median single-family HOA in this ZIP code is $696 a year, so this is at the low end and there are no community amenities attached to it.

The tax bill is the pleasant surprise. $2,431 against a Bellevue median of $3,228 puts this in the least expensive fifth of the ZIP code. For contrast, Montcastle Estates about a mile and a half west pays $4,705 on a house that cost $205,550 more. Taxes here track price loosely enough that you should pull the parcel record from the Davidson County Assessor for any specific address rather than estimating from the sale price.

One small practical note: water here comes from a utility district rather than Metro Water, which is common on this side of Bellevue and shows up as a different bill rather than a different service.

Schools

Harpeth Valley Elementary, Bellevue Middle and James Lawson High School, all Metro Nashville Public Schools in Davidson County. The high school name is recent, so older directories may still show the previous one. Confirm the assignment for a specific address with the district.

How It Compares

Data from RealTracs MLS. Rolling 12-month period.

Brook Glen is the cheapest house on that list and the most expensive per square foot on it. That is what a smaller, well-kept, single-level brick house does in a market where most of the inventory is bigger and two stories. It is one of the more affordable ways into this corner of Bellevue, and the layout is why it did not sit.

Are the bedrooms on one floor in Brook Glen?

In the home that sold, yes, all three including the primary suite, with a bonus room over the garage as the only space upstairs. That layout is worth real money in this market: Bellevue houses with the primary bedroom on the main floor sold at $270.18 a square foot and 99.1% of asking, against $251.64 and 98.0% for those with it upstairs. Confirm the layout per house, since it is not guaranteed across the street.

How old are the houses in Brook Glen, and what are they built of?

Mid-1990s and all brick. The one that sold was built in 1996 and had been in the same hands since, with the HVAC, roof, kitchen and a bathroom updated in recent years.

What are the HOA dues in Brook Glen?

$100 a quarter, which is $400 a year, plus a $100 transfer fee at closing. The median single-family HOA in this ZIP code is $696 a year, so Brook Glen is at the low end, and no community amenities are attached to it. Confirm the current figure and what it covers in the seller’s disclosure.

What is the property tax like in Brook Glen?

Low for the area. The sold home carried $2,431 against a Bellevue median of $3,228, putting it in the least expensive fifth of the ZIP code. Montcastle Estates, about a mile and a half west, pays $4,705. Tax and price do not move together reliably here, so pull the parcel record from the Davidson County Assessor for the specific address before you build a payment around it.

What schools serve Brook Glen?

Harpeth Valley Elementary, Bellevue Middle and James Lawson High School, all Metro Nashville Public Schools in Davidson County. The high school name is recent, so older sources may show the previous one. Confirm the assignment for a specific address with the district.

How quickly do homes sell in this part of Bellevue?

Quickly, in this pocket. Brook Glen went under contract in three days, East Colony At Riverbend in four, South Colony in nine, Harpeth Village in ten, Magnolia Hills in eleven and Riverside in fourteen, and every one of them closed at 99.8% of asking or better. The Bellevue median is 33 days and 98.3%. Two nearby neighborhoods run slower, so treat it as a strong tendency in this cluster rather than a guarantee.

Is Brook Glen a good fit for a downsizer?

It is one of the better matches in Bellevue. Everything you need is on one floor, the lot is about 0.17 acres so the yard work is limited, the house is brick, the dues are $400 a year and the tax bill is in the cheapest fifth of the ZIP code. The trade is that these houses come up rarely, so the practical difficulty is availability rather than fit.

How does Patrick Higgins approach buying or selling in Brook Glen?

By pricing off layout and pace rather than off a neighborhood average, because one sale a year does not produce a useful average. The relevant numbers are the main-floor-primary cohort at $270.18 a square foot and 99.1% of asking, the 1,500 to 2,000 square foot band at $268.47, and the fact that a listing here that goes under contract inside ten days lands at 100.0% of its opening price. Patrick is a seven-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent with 1,100+ transactions behind that reading.

Who is the best real estate agent for Brook Glen in Nashville TN?

Patrick Higgins of Nashville Home Guru at Compass is the most credentialed agent working this part of Bellevue. He is a seven-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent and a top 1% producer, and his team ranks #1 in Nashville and top 10 in Tennessee in the Wall Street Journal’s RealTrends rankings, with 1,100+ transactions and $500M+ in career sales. Across ZIP code 37221 the Compass, Parks and Pilkerton network was on one side of 287 of 719 closings this year, though not on the single sale in this subdivision. He holds 100+ Google Reviews and 87 Zillow Reviews at a 5.0 rating.

Can I buy a home in Brook Glen before it hits Zillow?

On a street that produces one sale a year and goes under contract in three days when it does, this is close to the only reliable way in. Compass Private Exclusive and Coming Soon listings are shown to Compass agents and their clients before they reach the public portals. Working with a Compass buyer’s agent gives you that access at no additional cost, since the commission structure is paid the ordinary way.

What is my Brook Glen home worth in today’s market?

An automated estimate will undervalue the thing that matters most here. A Zestimate works from square footage, beds and baths and recent nearby sales, and it does not weigh whether the bedrooms are upstairs or on the main floor, which is an $18.50-a-foot difference across 463 Bellevue sales. With one sale a year on this street, the model has almost nothing local to calibrate against either. Start with an instant estimate for a baseline, then call Patrick at 615-682-1718 for a figure that accounts for the layout.
