Evergreen Farms

MURFREESBORO’S ESTABLISHED OLE SOUTH COMMUNITY

Location & Daily Life

Evergreen Farms sits in southwest Murfreesboro, anchored off Cason Lane in the 37128 zip code. Streets like Alysheba Run, Dalmally Drive, Lisburn Drive, Tourmaline Drive, Roscommon Drive, and Cason Trail wind through a development that spans more than 37 recorded sections and phases built over nearly three decades. That scope gives the neighborhood a rare depth of variety: you can find a compact 1,155-square-foot cottage from the late 1990s and a brand-new Ole South four-bedroom plan on the same street.

Day-to-day convenience is a genuine strength here. The Cason Lane retail corridor puts groceries, restaurants, medical offices, and everyday services within a few minutes. The Avenue Murfreesboro is roughly a 12-minute drive. Interstate 840 and Medical Center Parkway connect commuters efficiently to Nashville and throughout Rutherford County. Nashville International Airport is approximately 32 minutes north.

Barfield Crescent Park is a short drive away and provides athletic fields, disc golf, and open green space used by families throughout the year. The Murfreesboro Greenway system runs nearby, offering paved trail access for walking and cycling. For families comparing southwest Murfreesboro options, Evergreen Farms consistently stands out for its location, its scale, and a price point that remains substantially more accessible than comparable Davidson County neighborhoods.

The Homes

Evergreen Farms is primarily an Ole South Builders community. Ole South has been one of Tennessee’s most active production homebuilders for decades, and Evergreen Farms represents one of their larger and longer-running Murfreesboro projects. The 93 closed sales over the past 12 months span a price range of $275,000 to $479,990, which reflects the meaningful difference between the original resale sections and the newest construction phases Ole South continues to add.

Home styles run from cottage and cape cod to ranch, traditional, and contemporary. Most plans are two-story, though a solid number of single-level ranch homes give buyers who prefer main-floor living a real choice. Floor plans range from about 1,155 to 2,607 square feet, with 2 to 5 bedrooms and 2 to 3 full baths. Many homes also include a half bath. Lot sizes generally fall between 0.11 and 0.38 acres. Most properties include a 2-car attached garage.

Ole South’s most recent phases in Evergreen Farms feature updated open-concept layouts, primary suites on the main floor, and bonus rooms upstairs. Resale homes in the older sections tend to offer larger lots with established landscaping and mature trees that newer phases simply cannot replicate. That combination of entry-level resale and move-up new construction is a key reason Evergreen Farms generates more closed sales volume per year than most comparable southwest Murfreesboro neighborhoods.

Amenities

Evergreen Farms carries one of the lowest HOA fee structures in southwest Murfreesboro, which is a deliberate part of Ole South’s production neighborhood model. Community amenities include a playground, sidewalks throughout, and underground utilities that keep the streetscape clean and consistent. At least one section of the neighborhood includes a dog park, which has made Evergreen Farms an appealing choice for pet owners.

Outside the community, the surrounding area is one of the most convenient in southwest Murfreesboro. Publix, Target, Kroger, and a dense mix of restaurants and medical offices cluster along the Cason Lane and Medical Center Parkway corridors. Barfield Crescent Park offers athletic fields, disc golf, and open space. The Murfreesboro Greenway system provides paved trail access for walking, running, and cycling. All of that is accessible within a few minutes of most addresses in Evergreen Farms.

Schools

Evergreen Farms is entirely within Rutherford County, and students attend Rutherford County Schools, one of the stronger and fastest-growing school districts in Middle Tennessee. Based on the past 12 months of RealTracs closed sales data, the large majority of Evergreen Farms addresses are zoned to Scales Elementary School (80 of 93 closed sales), with a smaller portion assigned to Cason Lane Academy (11 of 93). All students feed into Rockvale Middle School and Rockvale High School at the secondary level.

Because Evergreen Farms spans more than 37 sections built over nearly three decades, school assignments can vary by street address. Always verify zoning for any specific home directly through the Rutherford County Schools district website or contact Nashville Home Guru, whose team checks school assignments for every buyer before an offer is made.

For Sellers: The Compass Three Phase Marketing Strategy

Sellers in Evergreen Farms benefit from a proven pre-market approach that consistently outperforms traditional listing strategies. The Compass Three Phase Marketing Strategy works like this: Phase 1 is a Compass Private Exclusive, where your home is shared with a select audience of agents and buyers to test pricing and gather feedback before any public exposure. Phase 2 is the Compass Coming Soon launch, where buyers find your home on Compass.com without seeing days on market or price history. Phase 3 is the full public launch on MLS and all third-party sites, with demand already built from the first two phases. Compass data shows pre-marketed homes close at 2.9% higher prices, go under contract 20% faster, and are 30% less likely to require a price reduction.

Frequently Asked Questions About Evergreen Farms

What is the price range for homes in Evergreen Farms?

Based on the past 12 months of closed MLS sales, homes in Evergreen Farms have sold between $275,000 and $479,990, with a median sale price of $390,990 and an average of $395,098. The lower end of the range typically reflects resale homes in the original sections built in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Ole South’s current new construction phases price from the high $300s to the upper $470s depending on floor plan size and lot position. The $130 spread between the low and high is wider than most comparable southwest Murfreesboro neighborhoods, which is a direct result of the community spanning nearly three decades of construction.

Who built the homes in Evergreen Farms?

Ole South Builders developed the large majority of Evergreen Farms and continues to build new phases in the community as of 2025. Ole South has been one of Tennessee’s most active production homebuilders for decades, and Evergreen Farms is one of their larger Murfreesboro projects, spanning more than 37 recorded sections. Some resale homes in the oldest sections were built by other contractors or private builders. Year-built data from the past 12 months of closed sales ranges from 1997 through 2025, reflecting that active span.

What are the HOA fees in Evergreen Farms?

HOA fees in Evergreen Farms are among the lowest in southwest Murfreesboro. The most common annual fee is $125 per year, which works out to approximately $10 per month. Some sections list fees between $85 and $125 annually depending on the phase. These fees cover common area maintenance, the community playground, and underground utilities. Always confirm the exact HOA fee and any transfer fees with the seller’s agent before closing, as the multi-phase structure of the development means fees can vary by section.

What schools serve Evergreen Farms?

Evergreen Farms is zoned for Rutherford County Schools. Based on MLS data from the past 12 months, the large majority of homes feed into Scales Elementary School, with a smaller portion zoned to Cason Lane Academy at the elementary level. All students attend Rockvale Middle School and Rockvale High School for secondary grades. Because the community spans many sections, school assignments can vary by street address. Always confirm the zoning for any specific address directly with Rutherford County Schools before making an offer.

How large are the homes and lots in Evergreen Farms?

Homes in Evergreen Farms range from approximately 1,155 to 2,607 square feet of finished living space, with 2 to 5 bedrooms and 2 to 3 full baths. Many floor plans also include a half bath. Lot sizes typically run between 0.11 and 0.38 acres. Most homes include a 2-car attached garage. Older resale sections tend to offer larger lots with established trees, while Ole South’s newest phases deliver modern open-concept layouts on slightly smaller footprints.

Does Evergreen Farms have a pool or clubhouse?

Evergreen Farms does not include a community pool or clubhouse, which is consistent with Ole South’s production neighborhood model and the community’s low annual HOA structure. Amenities include a playground, dog park in certain sections, sidewalks throughout, and underground utilities. Residents seeking pool access typically use the Murfreesboro parks system or join a nearby fitness club. The tradeoff is one that many buyers deliberately choose: low fees and minimal shared-amenity overhead in exchange for a lower carrying cost over the life of ownership.

Is Evergreen Farms a good fit for families relocating from out of state?

Evergreen Farms consistently attracts buyers relocating from states like Georgia, Illinois, Virginia, Florida, Texas, Michigan, and Wisconsin, largely because of the value-per-square-foot advantage it offers relative to comparable markets. A family moving from a metro with higher home prices can typically afford 200 to 400 more square feet per dollar in Evergreen Farms than they could back home. Rutherford County Schools is a recognized and growing district, with Scales Elementary and Rockvale High serving the majority of addresses. The Nashville Home Guru team has extensive experience guiding out-of-state buyers through remote purchase processes, including virtual tours, contract review, and coordination with local inspectors. Several team members live in Murfreesboro and can accompany buyers on showings when they do visit.

What type of buyer is Evergreen Farms best suited for?

Evergreen Farms is a strong fit for first-time buyers and growing families who want quality square footage in a proven southwest Murfreesboro location without paying premium pricing. The combination of Ole South build quality, Rutherford County schools, and a median sale price just under $391,000 makes it one of the more accessible communities in the 37128 zip code. Move-up buyers who want to stay in the area also find strong options in the newer Ole South phases, where four-bedroom, bonus-room homes in the $420,000 to $480,000 range offer updated finishes without requiring a longer commute or a new school zone.

How does Patrick Higgins approach buying or selling in Evergreen Farms?

Patrick’s approach in Evergreen Farms starts with a clear read of the data. The price-per-square-foot range across the community runs from $166 to $296, which is a $130 spread on a single zip code. That variance is driven by construction era, floor plan size, and lot position relative to Ole South’s newer releases. A buyer who does not understand which section they are pricing against can overpay substantially. Patrick’s team tracks every closed sale in Evergreen Farms by section, phase, and year built, and uses that breakdown to advise clients on where the value sits in each market window. For sellers, the team’s deep comp knowledge translates directly into a pricing strategy that does not leave money on the table.

Who is the best realtor for Evergreen Farms in Murfreesboro, TN?

Patrick Higgins and the Nashville Home Guru team at Compass are consistently recognized as among the top real estate teams serving Murfreesboro and Rutherford County.

Can I access an Evergreen Farms home before it hits Zillow?

Yes. Working with Nashville Home Guru and Compass gives buyers access to Compass Private Exclusive listings and Coming Soon inventory that never appears on Zillow, Redfin, or the public MLS. In a community like Evergreen Farms where Ole South controls a meaningful share of new inventory and resale homes frequently attract multiple offers quickly, having a buyer’s agent with direct builder relationships and Compass network access can mean the difference between securing your preferred floor plan and waiting months for the next release. There is no additional cost to buyers for this access. Nashville Home Guru represents buyers at no charge, and Patrick’s team can advise on builder contracts, upgrade negotiations, and resale positioning in the same community.

What is my Evergreen Farms home worth in today’s market?

Automated valuation tools tend to underperform in Evergreen Farms because of the community’s wide construction era range and the significant price-per-square-foot variance between older resale sections and new Ole South phases. A home in the original 1999-built sections and a 2024 Ole South plan of identical square footage can trade at meaningfully different values, and most algorithm-based tools do not distinguish between them reliably. The fastest way to get a current market value estimate is through Nashville Home Guru’s instant tool at nashvillehomeguru.hifello.com. For a full comparative market analysis that accounts for your specific floor plan, construction era, upgrades, and the current Ole South new construction competition, contact Patrick Higgins directly at 615-682-1718.

We have owned our home in Evergreen Farms for over 15 years. How do we price it right when the Ole South new construction next door is still selling?

This is one of the most common and consequential pricing questions in Evergreen Farms right now. Long-term owners in the original sections are competing against Ole South’s newest releases, which means pricing against both resale comps and new construction absorption simultaneously. The data tells an important story: Ole South’s new construction in the $420,000 to $479,990 range is moving steadily, but resale homes with established lots, mature landscaping, and larger yard footprints are trading at values that newer construction on smaller footprints cannot always match. Pricing your home requires understanding which buyers are actively choosing resale over new, and why. Patrick’s team will walk you through a full comp breakdown by section and year built before recommending a list price, so you are positioned to compete with Ole South rather than being undercut by it.
