Churchill Farms

MURFREESBORO’S ESTATE COMMUNITY ON LARGE LOTS OFF MANCHESTER PIKE

Location & Daily Life

Churchill Farms is an estate-style single-family community located off Manchester Pike in Murfreesboro, TN 37127, in Rutherford County. The neighborhood is centered on Churchill Farms Drive in the southeastern reach of the city, a part of the county known for larger lots, mature landscaping, and a quieter, more private pace.

Despite the open, estate feel, daily conveniences are close. The shopping, dining, and services along Old Fort Parkway and South Church Street, and the heart of Murfreesboro, are a short drive away, with Interstate 24 keeping the broader Nashville metro within commuting range. For buyers who want room to spread out without giving up access to the city, the Manchester Pike corridor is one of Murfreesboro’s appealing options.

The Homes

Churchill Farms is an established estate community, the kind of neighborhood where substantial homes sit on real acreage. The most recent closed sale was a 1999-built home of roughly 3,650 square feet with four bedrooms, three full baths, and two half baths, set on a 1.5-acre lot. That combination of square footage and land is increasingly rare in Murfreesboro, and it defines the character of the neighborhood.

Lots here are large, giving owners genuine privacy and room for outdoor living, gardens, or other uses that compact subdivisions cannot accommodate. The community carries a modest HOA of about $300 per year, low for an estate neighborhood and a fraction of what amenity-driven communities charge each month. Churchill Farms suits move-up and luxury buyers who want space, an established setting, and a manageable cost of ownership.

Churchill Farms Market Data

Churchill Farms is a small estate community where homes change hands infrequently. Only one home closed over the rolling 12-month period, so the figures below describe that most recent sale rather than a broad market trend. In a community with this little turnover, especially at the higher end of the market, pricing a home accurately depends heavily on the closest available comparables.

Amenities

Churchill Farms is an estate neighborhood rather than an amenity-driven planned community. There is no neighborhood pool, clubhouse, or fitness center, and the low annual HOA reflects that model. For estate buyers, the large private lots are the amenity, offering space and privacy that no shared facility can replace.

The surrounding area provides plenty of recreation. Barfield Crescent Park, one of Murfreesboro’s largest green spaces, is within a reasonable drive and offers trails, disc golf, and sports fields across hundreds of acres. For day-to-day needs, the Old Fort Parkway and South Church Street corridors put groceries, dining, and Saint Thomas Rutherford Hospital within a short drive, with quick access to Interstate 24.

Schools

Churchill Farms sits entirely within Rutherford County and is served by Rutherford County Schools, one of the larger and well-resourced districts in Middle Tennessee. The assigned schools for the community are Buchanan Elementary School, Whitworth-Buchanan Middle School, and Riverdale High School. Riverdale High is a large comprehensive high school with strong athletic programs and a broad range of academic offerings. Attendance zones can change over time, so confirm the current assignment for any specific home directly with Rutherford County Schools before you make an offer.

Why Work with Nashville Home Guru

In a small estate community like Churchill Farms, where homes close rarely and each one is distinct in size, lot, and finish, accurate pricing at the high end takes real local knowledge rather than an automated estimate. Patrick Higgins leads the Nashville Home Guru team at Compass, ranked number one in Nashville and number seven in Tennessee by the Wall Street Journal’s RealTrends rankings. Patrick is a seven-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent with 1,100+ transactions and $500M+ in career residential sales across Middle Tennessee.

Compass is the number one 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, which gives buyers access to coming-soon listings and private exclusives and gives sellers an unmatched marketing platform, advantages that matter especially in the luxury and estate segment. For sellers, the Compass Three Phase Marketing Strategy begins with a Private Exclusive phase to test pricing with a select audience, moves to a Coming Soon launch on Compass.com where buyers find your home without triggering days-on-market or price-history clocks, then executes a full public launch with demand already built. Compass data shows pre-marketed homes sell for 2.9% more, go under contract 20% faster, and are 30% less likely to require a price reduction.

What type of buyer is Churchill Farms best suited for?
Churchill Farms is a strong fit for move-up and luxury buyers who want a substantial home on real acreage with an established, private setting. It appeals to buyers who want room to spread out, those seeking an estate-style home without the upkeep of a sprawling rural property, and families drawn to the Rutherford County school assignment and the Riverdale High zone. The low annual HOA is an added draw for buyers who want estate living without high carrying costs.

How does Patrick Higgins approach buying or selling in Churchill Farms?
Because Churchill Farms trades so rarely and sits at the higher end of the market, a reliable price comes from carefully selected comparables, similar estate homes on acreage in and around the neighborhood, not a broad zip-code average. Patrick builds that comparable set directly, and for sellers pairs it with a preparation and marketing plan suited to the home’s size, lot, and finish level. As a seven-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent with 1,100+ career transactions, his pricing work is grounded in how these specific homes actually sell.

Patrick Higgins and the Nashville Home Guru team at Compass are consistently recognized as top producers in Rutherford County and across Middle Tennessee, including the luxury and estate segment. Patrick is a seven-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent who leads the number one team in Nashville and number seven in Tennessee per Wall Street Journal RealTrends rankings, with $500M+ in career residential sales, 100+ Google Reviews, and 87 Zillow Reviews. The team’s deep familiarity with the 37127 zip code and Compass’s reach after its merger with Parks Real Estate make them a go-to choice for buyers and sellers in Churchill Farms and the Manchester Pike corridor.

Can I buy a Churchill Farms home before it hits Zillow?
Sometimes, yes. Through Compass Private Exclusive and Coming Soon programs, the Nashville Home Guru team has access to homes being prepared for market before they go live on the public MLS. In an estate neighborhood this small, where a home may come up only rarely, that early access can be the difference between getting in and missing out. Working with a Compass buyer’s agent costs you nothing, since the seller pays agent commissions. Call Patrick at 615-682-1718 to ask about current opportunities in the 37127 area.
