The combination of established lot sizes, no HOA, and proximity to quality schools has kept buyer interest steady even as newer communities have come online around it.

The Homes in Chadwick

Buyers will find single-story and two-story site-built homes with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths as the standard configuration. Square footage in recent closed sales has ranged from approximately 1,162 to 1,876 square feet, giving buyers a range from a practical starter footprint up to a comfortable family home.

Exterior finishes include vinyl siding, and many homes feature wood-burning fireplaces, covered porches, and detached storage buildings. Price per square foot in recent closed sales ranged from $213 to $294, reflecting the variance in condition and updates between homes.

Why Work with Nashville Home Guru in Chadwick?

Chadwick is a small community with a limited pool of comparable sales, which makes accurate pricing significantly harder than it looks.

Getting pricing right in a community like this requires direct knowledge of what drove each transaction.

Compass holds a 17.8% share of closed transactions in the 37129 zip code, representing 178 of 1,001 closed sales. That volume means Nashville Home Guru agents are working transactions throughout this zip on a consistent basis, which translates directly into better intelligence on what buyers are actually paying versus what listings are originally asking.

Frequently Asked Questions About Chadwick in Murfreesboro TN

What do homes in Chadwick sell for?
In the most recent 12-month period, closed sales in Chadwick ranged from $342,000 to $399,900, with a median of $370,950. Price per square foot ranged from $213 to $294, with the variance driven primarily by home size and the level of interior updates. Homes closer to 1,900 square feet on larger lots have commanded the higher end of that range.

When were homes in Chadwick built?
All homes in Chadwick were built in 1989. Buyers should factor in the age of major systems, including HVAC, roof, and plumbing, during the inspection period. Many homes in the neighborhood have been updated over the years, but the condition and vintage of systems can vary significantly from one property to the next.

Does Chadwick have an HOA?
No. There is no homeowners association in Chadwick, and no HOA fees. This is a meaningful factor for buyers comparing Chadwick against newer subdivisions in 37129, many of which carry annual HOA fees in the $400 to $900 range. No HOA also means fewer restrictions on how owners use and improve their property.

What schools serve Chadwick?
Chadwick is zoned for Rutherford County Schools. Current assignments based on recent MLS data are Brown’s Chapel Elementary School, Stewarts Creek Middle School, and Stewarts Creek High School. Buyers should confirm zoning directly with Rutherford County Schools, as district boundaries can change.

How large are the lots in Chadwick?
Lot sizes in Chadwick are notably generous by Murfreesboro standards. Recent closed sales show lots ranging from 0.45 to over 1.10 acres. For buyers who want a substantial yard, space for a shop or outbuilding, or room to add a pool, Chadwick’s lot sizes represent real value compared to newer subdivisions where quarter-acre lots are standard.

How many homes are in Chadwick?
Chadwick is a small established community with a limited number of single-family homes spread across Barbara Court, Chadwick Drive, and Redfield Drive. Because turnover is low and the community is not large, available inventory at any given time may be only one or two homes. Buyers interested in Chadwick should be prepared to move when something becomes available, rather than waiting for a wide selection.

Is Chadwick a good fit for families or move-up buyers?
Chadwick is best suited for buyers who prioritize lot size, no HOA, and a quiet established neighborhood over new construction finishes. Families with school-age children benefit from the Stewarts Creek zone, which has been one of the more sought-after assignments in Rutherford County. Move-up buyers coming from smaller townhomes or condos will find the lot sizes and detached storage a significant quality-of-life upgrade. At a median around $371,000 with no monthly HOA cost, the total carrying cost compares favorably to newer 37129 communities in a similar price band.

How does Patrick Higgins approach buying or selling in Chadwick?
Chadwick had only two closed sales in the most recent 12-month period, and those two transactions showed a $37 per square foot spread in price. That spread reflects a real difference in condition and presentation, not random market noise. When Patrick evaluates a Chadwick home for pricing, he looks at the specific lot size, the age and status of major systems, and how the interior finishes compare to what sold. He also tracks activity in adjacent neighborhoods like Brewer Point, Harris Downs, and Foothills to understand what competing buyers are choosing instead. That cross-neighborhood context is what produces pricing that holds up, rather than estimates based on a two-sale sample in isolation.

What is my Chadwick home worth in today’s market?
Automated valuation tools perform poorly in small communities like Chadwick. With only two closed sales in the rolling 12-month period, an algorithm has almost no local data to work from and typically pulls in transactions from surrounding neighborhoods with different lot sizes, construction types, and buyer pools. The resulting estimate can be off by tens of thousands of dollars in either direction. For a real number, use the Hifello instant estimate tool below as a starting point, then call Patrick at 615-682-1718 for a full comparative analysis that accounts for your specific lot size, system ages, and the current buyer demand in 37129.

We’ve owned our Chadwick home since the early 2000s. How do we price it right?
Long-term owners in Chadwick face a real pricing challenge. The community has very few sales to anchor a comparative market analysis, and the gap between a well-maintained 1989 home and one with deferred maintenance can be substantial. Buyers in this price range are often comparing Chadwick against newer construction in Brewer Point or Foothills, where they can get updated finishes but smaller lots. The right pricing strategy emphasizes what Chadwick’s older homes offer that newer construction simply cannot: lot depth, mature landscaping, and no HOA. Patrick will walk through your specific home’s condition, the lot premium, and current buyer demand before arriving at a number. Overpricing by even $15,000 to $20,000 in a small community with few comps can lead to extended market time and a price reduction that signals weakness to buyers. Getting it right from day one matters.

We’re relocating from out of state. Is Chadwick worth considering?
Families relocating to the Nashville area from states like Georgia, Illinois, Michigan, Virginia, or Texas frequently find Murfreesboro’s 37129 zip code appealing for its school quality and relative value compared to Williamson County. Chadwick specifically suits relocating families who want more land than a typical suburban subdivision offers and are comfortable with a 1989-built home that has been updated over time. The Stewarts Creek school zone, no HOA, and the Baker Road location give families strong fundamentals for a remote or hybrid commute. Nashville Home Guru has worked with dozens of relocating families who purchased in Rutherford County without ever seeing the home in person first. Patrick and the team can coordinate virtual showings, handle due diligence remotely, and guide buyers through a Murfreesboro purchase from anywhere in the country.
