Echelon at Lockwood Glen

FRANKLIN’S LOW-TURNOVER TOWNHOME AND SINGLE-FAMILY COMMUNITY

Location and Daily Life in Echelon at Lockwood Glen

Echelon at Lockwood Glen sits off Carothers Parkway in southwest Franklin, zip code 37064, in one of the most convenient pockets of Williamson County. The address puts you within five minutes of Cool Springs and about ten minutes from downtown Franklin, without sitting directly on any of the high-traffic corridors that make daily driving frustrating in this part of the county.

Carothers Parkway connects north toward Mack Hatcher and I-65 in under five minutes, giving you a direct shot to the Cool Springs Galleria, the Meridian retail corridor, and the full range of restaurants and services that have built up around the Cool Springs interchange over the past two decades. Target, Whole Foods, and dozens of dining options are all within a short drive. The Saturn Pkwy connector gives residents a second route option to avoid Carothers congestion during peak hours.

The neighborhood sits adjacent to Lockwood Glen, one of Franklin’s most established larger communities, and borders the Waters Edge enclave along the community’s eastern edge. Streets in Echelon include Ardrossan Drive, Echelon Drive, Maysbrook Lane, Obree Court, Tomich Drive, and Wenlock Lane. The street layout is intentional: the single-family homes occupy the interior lots with more separation and larger rear yards, while the townhome cottages along the Waters Edge section sit closer together with shared green space and lower maintenance responsibilities.

Residents consistently describe this as a neighborhood with low turnover and a strong sense of community. The data backs that up. Only nine homes sold over the past twelve months in a community that has well over one hundred units, which reflects genuine owner satisfaction rather than stagnation. When homes do come to market here, they attract serious buyers quickly.

The Homes

Echelon at Lockwood Glen contains two distinct product types that appeal to different buyer profiles. Understanding the difference between the Echelon Cottages and the Echelon single-family homes is the first step in evaluating whether this community is the right fit.

The Echelon Cottages, listed in MLS records under Waters Edge / Echelon Cottages, are attached townhome-style homes built in 2019 along the Moultrie Circle section of the community. These homes range from approximately 1,500 to 2,260 square feet with two or three bedrooms and 2.5 baths. They carry HOA fees in the $338 to $374 per month range, which covers exterior maintenance and common area upkeep. These are the lower-entry-point product in the community, with recent sales between $510,000 and $728,100. Buyers who want a Franklin address with minimal exterior maintenance responsibilities and community upkeep handled by the association tend to gravitate toward these units.

The Echelon Sec1 and Sec2 single-family homes are a different conversation entirely. Built between 2016 and 2018, these detached homes range from approximately 2,843 to 3,445 square feet with four and five bedrooms. Lots in Sec1 range from 0.14 to 0.44 acres, which is meaningfully larger than most Franklin single-family lots in this price tier. Recent closed sales for the detached homes came in between $964,000 and $1,100,000 with a median of just over $1,048,500. Price per square foot for detached sales ran $315 to $351. HOA fees for the single-family section run $140 to $459 per month depending on the specific section and HOA structure, with the higher fees covering more amenity access.

Construction quality across both product types is consistently described as solid. The Ford Homes builder handled the primary single-family sections, and Ford has a reputation in the Franklin market for above-average fit and finish. Exterior materials are primarily brick and stone on the single-family homes, with brick and fiber cement combinations in the cottage section. Most floor plans feature primary suites on the main level, open kitchen and living configurations, and hardwood floors throughout the main level.

Amenities

Echelon at Lockwood Glen is not a high-amenity community in the pool-and-clubhouse sense, but it delivers something that many Franklin buyers value more: a quiet, well-maintained environment with minimal maintenance burden and strong owner retention. The community connects to the broader Lockwood Glen trail system, which gives residents access to walking paths without the density or traffic of larger master-planned communities.

The Echelon Cottages section functions as a low-maintenance lock-and-leave community. The higher monthly HOA fees in the cottage section cover exterior building maintenance, landscaping, and common area upkeep, which appeals to buyers who travel frequently, own a second home, or simply want to eliminate weekend yard work from the equation. The single-family sections have more traditional ownership responsibilities with lower monthly fees in exchange for more space, more privacy, and larger lots.

The community’s proximity to the Lockwood Glen amenity center is a practical advantage. While Echelon at Lockwood Glen has its own separate HOA structure, the adjacency means residents are within walking distance of the broader neighborhood’s green spaces, trails, and community parks.

Why Work with Nashville Home Guru?

Compass agents represented 55.6% of all closed sales in Echelon at Lockwood Glen over the past 12 months, with 5 of 9 transactions involving a Compass agent on either the listing or buying side. That is the highest local market share you will find from a single firm in a Franklin community of this size. When you work with Nashville Home Guru, your agent has been in the room on more than half the deals that have transacted here.

Patrick Higgins leads Nashville Home Guru at Compass, ranked #1 team in Nashville and #7 in Tennessee by the Wall Street Journal’s RealTrends. Six consecutive RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent recognitions and over 1,100 transactions across Middle Tennessee put specific Franklin market knowledge behind the broader credentials. In a low-turnover community like Echelon, that transactional depth matters because comparable sales are limited and pricing precision is critical.

Compass is the #1 residential real estate brokerage in the United States by sales volume. Following the merger with Parks Real Estate in 2024, Compass agents now represent approximately 1 in 4 homes sold across Tennessee. That scale translates to coming-soon access, Compass Private Exclusive inventory, and a referral network that smaller regional firms cannot replicate.

For sellers in Echelon at Lockwood Glen, the Compass 3-Phase Marketing Strategy is especially relevant in a low-inventory community where buyers are actively watching for homes to come available. 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 community where one or two comparable sales set the pricing benchmark for all subsequent transactions, those outcomes compound significantly. Learn more about selling your home on your terms.

How does Echelon at Lockwood Glen compare to Lockwood Glen itself?

Echelon at Lockwood Glen is a separate, smaller community adjacent to the larger Lockwood Glen development. Echelon tends to have higher price points in the single-family sections and a more boutique feel with fewer total homes. Buyers cross-shopping between the two should review school assignments, HOA structures, and lot characteristics carefully, as each community has its own homeowners association and management.

Why do so few homes sell each year in Echelon at Lockwood Glen?

With only 9 closed sales over the past 12 months in a community of over 100 units, Echelon at Lockwood Glen has one of the lowest turnover rates of any established Franklin neighborhood. This reflects genuine owner satisfaction rather than a lack of market demand. When homes do come available, they attract competitive interest quickly. Buyers who want to get ahead of the limited supply should work with an agent who tracks off-market activity in the community and can provide early access through Compass Private Exclusive channels.

Are there off-market homes available in Echelon at Lockwood Glen?

Given the low turnover rate, off-market and pre-market access matters more in this community than in higher-inventory Franklin neighborhoods. Nashville Home Guru’s access to the Compass Private Exclusive and Coming Soon programs means buyers may have an opportunity to see homes before they are publicly listed. Contact Patrick Higgins at 615-682-1718 to discuss current off-market awareness for the community.

What type of buyer is Echelon at Lockwood Glen best suited for?

The cottage section attracts buyers who want a Franklin address with low maintenance, strong schools, and proximity to Cool Springs without taking on a large single-family home. The Sec1 single-family homes at the $964K to $1.1M price point appeal to buyers who want more space, a larger lot, and a quieter environment than higher-density Franklin neighborhoods while staying in the Carothers corridor. Both buyer profiles tend to be established in their careers, often relocating from larger markets, and prioritizing school quality and commute convenience equally.

How can I schedule a showing at Echelon at Lockwood Glen?

Contact Patrick Higgins directly at 615-682-1718 or [email protected]. Nashville Home Guru tracks all activity in the community and can arrange private showings of active listings and alert buyers to homes coming to market before they appear on public sites.
