Firestone @ Cool Springs

TEN HOMES OFF JORDAN ROAD, AND BOTH RECENT SALES CLOSED UNDER ASK

Firestone @ Cool Springs at a Glance

What is Firestone @ Cool Springs?

Firestone @ Cool Springs is a boutique community of roughly ten custom homes on a single cul-de-sac off Jordan Road in Franklin, Tennessee, zip code 37067, Williamson County. Homes here run from about 4,900 to 5,800 square feet on lots of roughly a third of an acre, and they trade between $1.65 million and $2.5 million. Two homes closed over the past 12 months, at $1,650,000 and $2,475,000, for a median of $2,062,500. HOA dues are approximately $2,000 per year.

Both of those sales closed below their asking prices. One of them closed $349,999 below where it started. If you are buying or selling on this street, that is the number that matters, and the rest of this page explains why it happened.

Location and Daily Life in Firestone

Firestone sits on a quiet cul-de-sac off Jordan Road, just south of West McEwen Drive, in the heart of the Cool Springs area of Franklin. The trade the neighborhood makes is unusual: it is close enough to walk to dinner, and private enough that the only cars on the street belong to the ten families who live there.

McEwen Northside is the closest draw, a walkable mixed-use district of restaurants, boutiques, salons and offices connected by wide sidewalks. One of the two homes that sold here described walking distance to gourmet restaurants, boutiques and salons as a defining feature, and that is a fair description of the location. Cool Springs Galleria sits under two miles away, and the commercial corridor along Mallory Lane and Carothers Parkway is a short drive.

I-65 access via the McEwen Drive interchange puts downtown Nashville roughly 25 minutes north and historic downtown Franklin about 10 minutes south. Liberty Park, one of the city’s most-used green spaces, is minutes away. Franklin is the seat of Williamson County, which is a distinction worth making because Franklin County, Tennessee is a separate county about 90 minutes to the southeast and has nothing to do with this neighborhood.

What zip code is Cool Springs, TN?

Cool Springs is not a separate city. It is a commercial and residential district within Franklin, Tennessee, and its primary zip code is 37067. Firestone @ Cool Springs, along with neighborhoods like Cool Springs East, McKays Mill and Poplar Farms, all carry a 37067 mailing address. Parts of the broader Cool Springs area spill into 37064 and 37069, so the exact zip depends on the street.

The Homes in Firestone

Firestone is not a production-builder subdivision. These are custom and semi-custom homes, each with its own plan, and the two that sold recently were finished in 2019 and 2020. Both are two-story, all-brick construction, one of them with stone accents, on lots of 0.31 and 0.39 acres with three-car side-entry or attached garages and public water and sewer.

The floor plans share a shape that matters to buyers at this level: five bedrooms, four to five full baths plus a half bath, and a primary suite on the main level in both cases. Each also placed a second bedroom on the main floor, which is the layout multigenerational households and buyers planning to age in place tend to hunt for. Upstairs you get three more bedrooms plus a bonus or recreation room in the 21-by-16 range.

Interiors run to hardwood on the main level, chef’s kitchens with stone counters and stainless appliances, walk-in pantries, gas fireplaces, offices with built-in bookcases, and high ceilings. Where the two homes diverge sharply is outdoors, and as the sales data below shows, that divergence was worth roughly a hundred dollars a square foot.

Firestone Market Data

With roughly ten homes total, Firestone produces one or two sales in a typical year. The figures below are the homes that actually closed over the trailing 12 months, not asking prices, which in this neighborhood turn out to be two very different things.

Both Firestone Sales Closed Below Ask

Two sales is a small sample and this page will not pretend otherwise. But when a neighborhood only produces two sales, both of them are the market, and both of them went the same direction. Here is the full chain on each, from opening ask to closing check.

Data from RealTracs MLS. Rolling 12-month period.

Between them, the two sellers came down $564,999 from their opening asks. The home at 1013 Firestone Drive opened at $1,999,999 in late October, spent five months finding a contract, was repositioned to $1,660,000, and closed at $1,650,000 in June. That is a $349,999 reduction and 151 days from the day it went live to the day it went under contract.

The home at 1037 Firestone Drive never changed its price. It opened at $2,690,000, went under contract in 35 days, and closed at $2,475,000. The buyer negotiated $215,000 off at the table rather than waiting for a price cut.

The bigger home earned 28% more per square foot

This is the part that surprises people. Price per square foot almost always falls as homes get larger, because buyers pay a premium for the first thousand feet and a discount for the last. Firestone did the opposite. The 4,975-square-foot home closed at $331.66 per foot. The 5,815-square-foot home closed at $425.62 per foot, which is 28% higher on a home 17% larger.

The MLS record explains it. The home that earned $425 a foot has a heated saltwater Gunite pool with an infinity edge and two fire bowls, a covered patio with motorized screens and a ceiling-mounted heater, a full outdoor kitchen, two putting greens, a theater room, and an en suite bath on every single bedroom. The home that earned $332 a foot has no pool. It has a sports court and a fenced yard, both good, neither in the same category.

The practical read for a Firestone owner is that outdoor build-out drives value here more than square footage does, and an automated valuation tool has no way to know that. It sees two brick homes built a year apart on the same cul-de-sac and averages them. The market priced them 28% apart.

Recently Sold Homes in Firestone

Closed sales are the only honest guide to value on this street, for the reason the table above makes plain. The sold data below reflects verified closings.

Amenities, HOA and the Rental Restriction

Firestone keeps its common amenities deliberately thin. There is no community pool, clubhouse or fitness center. Dues of approximately $2,000 per year, billed annually, cover grounds maintenance and the upkeep of common areas and underground utilities. That is modest for a neighborhood at this price point, and it is the direct consequence of having nothing communal to maintain.

There is one restriction buyers should know about before they write an offer. The MLS record on 1013 Firestone Drive lists the rental policy as renting forbidden. If that reflects the recorded covenants, it means a Firestone home cannot be bought as a rental or short-term rental property, and it constrains what an owner can do if a job relocation arrives before they are ready to sell.

This is not published anywhere else, and it is the kind of thing that gets found during the option period rather than before the offer. Any buyer should request and read the current covenants and HOA documents to confirm the restriction and its exact terms. Patrick can pull those documents before you write.

Schools and the City of Franklin Tax

Both Firestone sales record the same three schools: Johnson Elementary, Freedom Intermediate and Centennial High. Johnson and Freedom are part of the Franklin Special School District, a separate K-8 district serving homes inside the Franklin city limits, and Freedom Middle picks up grades seven and eight. Centennial High is Williamson County Schools.

Because Firestone sits inside the city limits, owners pay a City of Franklin property tax on top of the Williamson County tax. That city tax is what funds the FSSD. The recorded annual tax figures on the two homes that sold were $8,566 and $10,782. Relatively few Cool Springs neighborhoods land in the FSSD rather than straight Williamson County zoning, and both districts rank among the strongest in Tennessee, so this is a difference to understand rather than a drawback. Confirm the assignment and the current tax figure for any specific address before you rely on it, since boundaries and rates both move.

Why Work with Nashville Home Guru?

If you own a home in Firestone, the problem is not finding a buyer. The problem is that there are almost no comparable sales, the two that exist are 28% apart per square foot, and the last owner who guessed high spent five months on the market and gave back $349,999. Overpricing a home in a ten-home neighborhood is expensive in a way it simply is not in a 400-home subdivision, because there is no steady stream of new buyers arriving to reset the conversation.

Patrick Higgins handles that with a plan he runs on every luxury listing. First, price from the actual closed record rather than a neighborhood average, adjusting line by line for pool, outdoor build-out and finish level, which is what the Firestone data proves is doing the work. Second, pre-market through Compass Private Exclusive and Coming Soon so the home gathers interest before its listing clock starts. Third, negotiate against the known pattern, which on this street is a buyer who expects to take something off at the table.

Patrick is a seven-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent and a top 1% producer, and he founded Nashville Home Guru at Compass, ranked the #1 team in Nashville and in the top 10 in Tennessee by the Wall Street Journal’s RealTrends. He has closed 1,100+ transactions and $500M+ in career sales across Middle Tennessee. With 100+ Google Reviews and 87 Zillow Reviews at a 5.0-star average, the client feedback across Franklin lines up with what the transaction record already shows. Of the two Firestone homes that sold this year, Compass held the listing on one of them.

Compass is the largest residential real estate brokerage in the United States by sales volume, and following the 2024 merger with Parks Real Estate, Compass agents are involved in roughly one in four homes sold in Tennessee. On a street where a home lists perhaps once a year, that network is how a buyer hears about a Firestone home early and how a seller reaches the small pool of people shopping at this level. Patrick’s listing track record is documented at Franklin’s most-reviewed listing team.

The Compass 3-Phase Marketing Strategy is the mechanism behind step two. Homes pre-marketed through Private Exclusive and Coming Soon sell for 2.9% more, go under contract 20% faster, and are 30% less likely to take a price reduction. Given that the last Firestone seller to reprice gave up more than a third of a million dollars, testing the market quietly first is worth real money here.

Frequently Asked Questions About Firestone @ Cool Springs

What is the price range for homes in Firestone @ Cool Springs?

Homes in Firestone trade between roughly $1.65 million and $2.5 million. The two that closed over the past 12 months sold at $1,650,000 and $2,475,000, a median of $2,062,500, at $331.66 and $425.62 per square foot. That per-foot spread is wide for two homes on the same cul-de-sac built a year apart, and it comes down to outdoor build-out rather than size.

Who is the best real estate agent to sell a Firestone @ Cool Springs home in Franklin TN?

Patrick Higgins of Nashville Home Guru at Compass is a strong choice for a Firestone seller, for reasons specific to this street. He is a seven-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent and a top 1% producer, he leads the #1 team in Nashville by the Wall Street Journal’s RealTrends, and he has closed 1,100+ transactions and $500M+ in career sales. Compass held the listing on one of the two Firestone homes that sold this year, and Compass agents are involved in roughly one in four homes sold statewide. He carries 100+ Google Reviews and 87 Zillow Reviews at 5.0 stars. The reason it matters here is pricing: both recent Firestone sales closed under ask, and the one that opened too high spent 151 days on the market and closed $349,999 below its first asking price.

What is my Firestone home worth in today’s market?

Automated tools like the Zillow Zestimate perform badly in Firestone, and the data shows exactly why. With about ten homes and one or two sales a year, the algorithm has almost nothing local to work from, so it falls back on broader Cool Springs averages. Worse, the two Firestone sales differ by 28% per square foot because one has a heated saltwater pool, an outdoor kitchen and two putting greens and the other does not. No automated model prices a fire bowl. On a home at this level the error can run into the hundreds of thousands. Use the instant home value tool as a starting point, then call Patrick at 615-682-1718 for a pricing analysis built on the actual closed record.

Why did both Firestone homes sell below their asking prices?

Two different reasons, and the contrast is instructive. 1013 Firestone Drive opened at $1,999,999, found no contract for five months, repriced to $1,660,000 and closed at $1,650,000, which is 82.5% of where it started. 1037 Firestone Drive never repriced at all, went under contract in 35 days at its opening ask of $2,690,000, and closed at $2,475,000 after negotiation, or 92.0%. One seller paid for the mistake in time and price cuts, the other paid for it once at the closing table. In a neighborhood with this little comparable data, buyers arrive assuming the ask is negotiable, and so far they have been right both times.

How does Patrick Higgins approach buying or selling in Firestone?

He starts from the fact that a Cool Springs average is useless on this street. Two sales at $331.66 and $425.62 per square foot cannot be averaged into a number that means anything, so Patrick prices from the individual closed records and adjusts for pool, outdoor kitchen, finish level and floor plan line by line. For sellers he pre-markets through Compass Private Exclusive and Coming Soon before the listing clock starts, because the 151-day example on this street shows what a public misprice costs. For buyers he negotiates against the documented pattern, which is that both recent Firestone buyers closed below ask. As a seven-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent with 1,100+ transactions who works this price band daily, he brings the precision a $2 million home in a ten-home neighborhood requires.

Can I buy a Firestone home before it hits Zillow?

Frequently that is the only realistic way in. With roughly ten homes and one or two sales a year, waiting for a public listing means waiting a long time. Through the Compass Private Exclusive and Coming Soon programs, Nashville Home Guru clients see properties before they reach Zillow or the open MLS, and working with a Compass buyer’s agent costs the buyer nothing additional for that access. Patrick also tracks the small owner pool on Firestone Drive directly. Call 615-682-1718 to be told when something moves.

Is Firestone @ Cool Springs a good fit for a relocation or move-up buyer?

It fits a specific buyer well. If you are relocating into Williamson County for work, want 4,900 to 5,800 square feet with a main-level primary suite, want to walk to restaurants rather than drive, and want top-tier schools and a 25-minute run into Nashville, Firestone delivers all of it inside a ten-home cul-de-sac. Both homes that sold have a second bedroom on the main floor as well, which suits multigenerational households. It fits poorly if you want acreage, a gated entrance, community amenities like a pool or clubhouse, or a home you can rent out, since the MLS record indicates renting is forbidden.

Can I rent out a home in Firestone @ Cool Springs?

The MLS record on 1013 Firestone Drive lists the rental policy as renting forbidden. Taken at face value that rules out buying a Firestone home as a long-term rental or short-term rental, and it limits an owner’s options if a relocation comes up before they are ready to sell. Rental restrictions live in the recorded covenants, so any buyer should request the current HOA documents and confirm the exact language before writing an offer. Patrick can obtain those documents in advance.

How many homes are in Firestone @ Cool Springs?

Approximately ten single-family homes, all on Firestone Drive in a cul-de-sac layout off Jordan Road. That makes it one of the smallest residential communities in the Cool Springs area of Franklin, and it is the reason sales data here is so thin.

What are the HOA fees in Firestone, and what do they cover?

Dues are approximately $2,000 per year, billed annually, on both homes that sold. They cover grounds maintenance and the upkeep of common areas and underground utilities. There is no community pool, clubhouse or fitness center, which is what keeps the figure modest relative to other luxury communities in Franklin.

What schools serve Firestone, and is there a City of Franklin tax?

Firestone records to Johnson Elementary, Freedom Intermediate and Centennial High, with Freedom Middle covering grades seven and eight. Johnson and the Freedom schools belong to the Franklin Special School District, the K-8 district for homes inside the Franklin city limits, while Centennial High is Williamson County Schools. Because the neighborhood sits inside the city, owners pay a City of Franklin property tax in addition to the Williamson County tax, and that city tax funds the FSSD. Recorded annual taxes on the two homes that sold were $8,566 and $10,782. Verify the assignment and rate for a specific address before relying on it.

Is Firestone @ Cool Springs related to Firestone tires or Firestone, Colorado?

No. Firestone @ Cool Springs is a residential subdivision in Franklin, Williamson County, Tennessee, zip 37067. It has no connection to Firestone Complete Auto Care or the Firestone tire brand, to the town of Firestone, Colorado, to the Firestone Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, or to the Firestone estate in Ohio. It is also a different place from Fieldstone Farms, a much larger Franklin subdivision whose name is frequently confused with this one. If you searched for a tire store, this is not it.

What zip code is Firestone @ Cool Springs in?

37067. Both closed sales record a 37067 mailing address in Franklin, Williamson County. That is the primary Cool Springs zip code, shared with neighborhoods including Cool Springs East, McKays Mill and Poplar Farms. Parts of the wider Cool Springs area extend into 37064 and 37069.
