Highland Park

BRENTWOOD’S ESTABLISHED LUXURY COMMUNITY IN RAINTREE FOREST

Location and Daily Life in Highland Park

Highland Park sits in the southeastern corner of Brentwood, tucked within the larger Raintree Forest community along Concord Road. The neighborhood’s location gives residents quick access to everything Brentwood has to offer while maintaining a sense of separation from the busier parts of town. Concord Road connects directly to I-65, making the commute to Nashville straightforward without fighting through the Old Hickory or Wilson Pike corridors.

The streets here are quiet and low-traffic. Stillwater Circle, Waterfall Road, and Dalton Court loop through the neighborhood in ways that keep through-traffic out. That matters in Brentwood, where many communities technically feel private but still see cut-through drivers. Highland Park genuinely doesn’t.

Daily errands and dining are easy. Whole Foods and the Maryland Farms area sit about 10 minutes north. The Cool Springs Galleria, Brentwood’s main retail corridor, is roughly the same distance south on I-65. Directly around the corner on Concord Road you’ll find coffee shops, restaurants, and the kind of everyday services that make this part of Brentwood genuinely livable rather than just pretty on paper.

The Raintree Forest area overall is one of Brentwood’s most sought-after pockets. Highland Park is a distinct section within it, offering its own character while benefiting from the larger community’s reputation, mature trees, and established feel.

The Homes

Highland Park contains 236 single-family homes built primarily in the mid-to-late 1990s. The neighborhood developed during a period when Brentwood builders were focused on larger floor plans, generous lot sizes, and brick-heavy exteriors, and the homes here reflect that era at its best.

Floor plans typically range from around 3,000 square feet to over 4,800 square feet. Closed sales over the past 12 months ran from 4,599 to 4,889 square feet, which gives you a sense of what the larger end of the market looks like. Most homes feature traditional architectural details: brick exteriors, two-story foyer entries, formal dining rooms, and finished bonus rooms or basement spaces that add usable square footage beyond the main floor count.

Lot sizes run approximately 0.34 to 0.39 acres based on recent sales, which is solid for this part of Brentwood. Many lots back to wooded buffers, creek areas, or other natural features that provide real privacy rather than just grass. Homes toward the back sections of the neighborhood tend to have the most seclusion.

Interior updates vary by home, but buyers in this price range should expect to see renovated kitchens and baths in the homes that have traded most recently. The bones on these houses are strong. With 4,500 to 4,900 square feet of space, there is room to customize without sacrificing livability during a renovation.

Amenities

Highland Park is part of the broader Raintree Forest community, which means residents have access to one of Brentwood’s most well-regarded amenity packages. The Raintree Forest amenity center includes a pool, tennis courts, and common green spaces maintained by the HOA. This is a meaningful distinction for buyers comparing Highland Park to nearby neighborhoods that lack community amenities entirely.

The Concord Road corridor gives residents access to walking and biking paths, and the surrounding neighborhood road network is calm enough that many families use it regularly for exercise. Maryland Farms YMCA is a short drive north and serves as a supplement for residents who want a full-service fitness facility.

Proximity to Crockett Park is another genuine draw. Brentwood’s flagship park is roughly 10 minutes by car and offers athletic fields, trails, an equestrian area, and open green space that gives the area a quality of life edge compared to more densely developed Brentwood submarkets. For families, this park eliminates the need to drive elsewhere for outdoor activities on weekends.

Schools Serving Highland Park

Elementary: Kenrose Elementary School serves Highland Park. Kenrose is part of Williamson County Schools and consistently earns strong ratings from families in the district. The school is accessible via local roads without needing to travel onto any major thoroughfares.

Middle: Woodland Middle School serves Highland Park students. Woodland is one of the established WCS middle schools in the Brentwood area with a strong academic reputation and a range of extracurricular programs.

High: Ravenwood High School is the zoning assignment for Highland Park. Ravenwood is one of the top-ranked high schools in Tennessee, with strong AP course offerings, athletics, and fine arts programs. For many buyers relocating to Brentwood, Ravenwood zoning is a primary driver of their neighborhood search.

All three schools are part of Williamson County Schools, consistently ranked among the best school districts in Tennessee and a major reason buyers target Brentwood specifically over other parts of the Nashville metro.
