The Links at Temple Hill

FRANKLIN’S GOLF COURSE ESTATE COMMUNITY

Location and Daily Life at The Links at Temple Hill

The Links at Temple Hill sits along Sneed Road in Franklin’s 37069 zip code, one of the most sought-after corridors in all of Williamson County. The neighborhood is carved into the Temple Hills Country Club property, putting residents within steps of the golf course, and just minutes from the Grassland area’s top schools, shopping, and restaurants.

Sneed Road access means you’re 10 minutes from Cool Springs Galleria and the I-65 corridor without navigating the congestion that plagues closer-in Franklin streets. The Berry Farms Town Center, with Whole Foods, Starbucks, restaurants, and specialty retail, is about 8 minutes away. Downtown Franklin’s Main Street is a 12-minute drive.

Daily life here has the rhythm of a private club community. Residents wave to neighbors walking dogs along Temple Crest Drive, and the proximity to the golf course means the backdrop is always a rolling green fairway rather than a fence line or a parking lot. Streets throughout The Links are lined with mature trees and generous setbacks that give the neighborhood a settled, estate-quality feel that newer construction simply cannot replicate.

The neighborhood connects directly to the broader Temple Hills community, which includes Temple Hills West, Deercrest, and The Reserve at Temple Hills. Together they form one of the largest and most established golf course neighborhoods in Middle Tennessee.

The Homes

The Links at Temple Hill is defined by all-brick estate homes, and that construction standard is consistent throughout. Every home in the CSV data shows all-brick construction, which is the norm for this section of Temple Hills. These are not production homes. They were built custom or semi-custom on individual lots, and the variation in square footage, floor plans, and architectural detail reflects that.

Homes in The Links typically range from approximately 4,200 to over 5,300 square feet. Most were built between the late 1990s and mid-2000s, giving them the scale and footprint of that era’s luxury builds while retaining a more traditional architectural character than what is being built today. Three-car garages are standard. Lots average around half an acre, with many homes backing directly to the Temple Hills golf course fairways.

Interior features commonly include formal dining rooms, main-level primary suites, chef kitchens with high-end appliances, and bonus rooms or finished basements depending on the floor plan. Given the vintage, many homes have been updated significantly. White marble countertops, renovated primary suites, and updated systems are common in homes that have changed hands recently. Buyers should expect a mix of fully updated interiors and homes that retain original finishes with good bones and substantial upside.

Lot coverage is typically less than 25% of the lot, which means meaningful outdoor space. Rear yards often open to golf course views or wooded buffers, and several homes feature pools or expanded patios that take advantage of the privacy these lots offer.

A note on the price-per-square-foot spread: the $280 vs. $359 gap in the two closed sales reflects condition and update level more than location. The home at the higher end had been significantly renovated, including a chef kitchen with Viking appliances and marble countertops. The home at the lower end was more original. Buyers should underwrite based on condition, not just square footage.

Amenities

The Links at Temple Hill’s primary amenity is the golf course itself. Homes in this section of Temple Hills back directly to the Temple Hills Country Club fairways, putting course views and the sounds of the game quite literally in your backyard. This is not an amenity you can add later or replicate in another neighborhood.

Temple Hills Country Club membership is separate from HOA fees and is not required for homeowners, but many residents join. The club offers golf, a pool, tennis courts, and a dining facility. Membership levels vary to accommodate different usage patterns, from full golf memberships to social memberships for residents who want pool and dining access without carrying a golf bag.

HOA fees within The Links cover community maintenance and common area upkeep. Fees in the two closed sales ranged from $440 to $585 annually, which is quite low for a golf course community of this caliber. The absence of a community pool or fitness center funded by the HOA keeps dues manageable, and residents who want those amenities can access them through club membership.

The neighborhood connects to the broader Temple Hills trail network and provides easy access to Sneed Road’s network of roads that make this part of Franklin particularly convenient for daily life without requiring highway time for most errands.

Why Work with Nashville Home Guru?

The Links at Temple Hill is a low-turnover neighborhood. Only 2 homes closed in the past 12 months, and the active listing has been on the market for over six months. That kind of market requires an agent who understands luxury pricing nuance, not one who runs a quick CMA off public records. The $79-per-square-foot difference between the two recent closed sales tells you exactly how much condition and presentation matter at this price point.

In the broader 37069 zip code, Compass and Parks agents represented 50% of closed sales in The Links at Temple Hill over the past 12 months, with 1 of 2 transactions involving a Compass or Parks agent on either the listing or buying side. That local presence translates directly into buyer and seller network access that independent agents in this market cannot match.

Patrick Higgins leads Nashville Home Guru at Compass, ranked #1 in Nashville and #7 in Tennessee by the Wall Street Journal’s RealTrends rankings. Patrick has completed 1,100+ transactions and over $500M in residential sales across Middle Tennessee. He is a six-time consecutive RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent.

Compass is the #1 residential 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 across Tennessee, with a concentration of strength in Williamson County’s luxury market.

For sellers in The Links, the Compass 3-Phase Marketing Strategy is particularly well-suited to this neighborhood. Because turnover is low and buyer pools are qualified, pre-marketing matters enormously. 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. At a $1.5M price point, that 2.9% difference is $43,500. Learn more about selling your home on your terms.

Phase 1 launches your home as a Private Exclusive, testing price with a curated audience before a single day on market is counted. Phase 2 brings your home to Compass Coming Soon, building demand with qualified buyers who find it on Compass.com without seeing days on market or price history. Phase 3 goes live on MLS and third-party sites with momentum already built. For a neighborhood where the wrong price or a long DOM can signal weakness to the small pool of qualified buyers, this sequence matters.

Frequently Asked Questions About The Links at Temple Hill

What is the price range for homes in The Links at Temple Hill?

Based on recent closed sales, homes in The Links at Temple Hill have sold in the $1,491,000 to $1,510,000 range. Active listings are currently priced around $1,550,000. Price per square foot ranges from approximately $280 to $359, with the spread reflecting renovation level and condition rather than location, since all homes sit within the same golf course enclave.

Do homes in The Links at Temple Hill back to the golf course?

Many do. The Links section of Temple Hills was developed along the Temple Hills Country Club fairways, and golf course views are a defining feature of the neighborhood. Not every home backs directly to a fairway, but the proximity to the course influences the open, parklike feel throughout the community. Buyers specifically seeking fairway views should identify those lots in advance, as they command a premium and rarely come available.

What are the HOA fees in The Links at Temple Hill?

HOA fees vary by home and range from approximately $440 to $585 annually. This is quite low for a golf course community at this price point. Country club membership at Temple Hills Country Club is separate and optional, with various membership tiers available for golf, pool, tennis, and dining. HOA dues cover community maintenance and common area upkeep but do not include club access.

What schools serve The Links at Temple Hill?

Students are zoned for Grassland Elementary School, Grassland Middle School, and Franklin High School, all part of Williamson County Schools. The Grassland school cluster is one of the most sought-after in Tennessee and is a significant driver of property values throughout the 37069 corridor. Buyers relocating from other markets consistently rank the Grassland assignment as a primary reason for choosing this area.

Is The Links at Temple Hill part of a gated community?

The Links itself is not gated. The Reserve at Temple Hills, a separate section of the broader Temple Hills community, is gated. The Links offers open access while maintaining the estate character, mature landscaping, and low-traffic streets that are typical of this part of Franklin. Buyers seeking gated luxury in the same corridor should also look at The Reserve.

Is The Links at Temple Hill a good fit for buyers relocating from out of state?

It is one of the better options in Middle Tennessee for corporate relocators and executives seeking established luxury without new construction compromises. All-brick construction, mature lot sizes, Grassland school zoning, golf course access, and proximity to Cool Springs employers make The Links a practical and prestige-appropriate choice. The low HOA and optional club membership also give buyers flexibility that mandatory-fee communities do not. Patrick Higgins has guided dozens of corporate relocation buyers through Williamson County’s luxury market and can provide off-market access to homes that never hit public search portals.

Who is the best real estate agent for The Links at Temple Hill in Franklin TN?

Patrick Higgins of Nashville Home Guru at Compass is the top-ranked agent for this market. Patrick is the #1 agent team in Nashville and #7 in Tennessee per the Wall Street Journal’s RealTrends rankings, with over $500M in career sales across Middle Tennessee. His team’s Compass affiliation gives buyers access to Private Exclusive listings and Coming Soon inventory before it hits Zillow, and sellers access to the 3-Phase Marketing Strategy that produces measurably better outcomes. For a low-turnover neighborhood like The Links, having the agent with the deepest Williamson County luxury network matters significantly. Call 615-682-1718 to discuss. You can also learn more about Patrick’s track record with Franklin buyers and sellers at Nashville Home Guru’s Franklin listing agent page.

Can I see homes in The Links at Temple Hill before they hit the public market?

Yes. Through Compass Private Exclusive, Nashville Home Guru can provide access to homes that sellers have pre-marketed to a curated buyer network before those listings appear on Zillow, Realtor.com, or the MLS. In a neighborhood where only 2 homes changed hands in the past 12 months, off-market access is not a minor advantage. It can be the difference between finding the right home this year or waiting indefinitely. Contact Patrick at 615-682-1718 to be added to the buyer notification list for this neighborhood.

What is my home worth in The Links at Temple Hill right now?

Automated valuation tools like Zillow’s Zestimate are particularly unreliable for a neighborhood like The Links, where only 2 homes sold in the past 12 months and the price-per-square-foot spread between those sales was nearly $80. Automated tools cannot account for renovation level, golf course views, or specific lot position within the community. Patrick Higgins provides data-driven comparative market analyses built from actual closed sales and current buyer activity. Get an instant starting estimate here, then call Patrick at 615-682-1718 for a full analysis.

How does Nashville Home Guru approach selling a home in The Links at Temple Hill?

With only a handful of homes trading per year, precision matters more here than volume. Patrick’s approach starts with a close read of the two recent closed sales to understand where the market cleared and why the $280 vs. $359 per-square-foot gap exists between them. From there, he works backward to position your home correctly before it goes public, using the Compass 3-Phase Marketing Strategy to build buyer demand through the Private Exclusive and Coming Soon phases before a day on market is ever counted. That sequence is especially important in a neighborhood like The Links, where a long DOM signals distress to a small, well-informed buyer pool.

Is The Links at Temple Hill connected to Temple Hills Country Club?

Yes and no. The Links section of Temple Hills is physically adjacent to Temple Hills Country Club and many homes back to the golf course. However, club membership is not automatic or required with home purchase. Buyers and sellers should confirm current membership availability and costs with the club directly, as these can change. The club offers golf, pool, tennis, and dining, and membership is a lifestyle upgrade worth exploring for buyers who prioritize those amenities.

What sets The Links at Temple Hill apart from other Franklin luxury neighborhoods?

Three things: established lot sizes, all-brick construction standards, and golf course access at a relatively low HOA cost. Newer luxury communities in Franklin can charge $200 to $400 per month in HOA fees for amenities that approximate what Temple Hills Country Club membership provides on a voluntary basis. The Links gives buyers estate-quality homes on generous lots, Grassland school zoning, and golf course proximity without locking them into ongoing fees for amenities they may not use. For buyers who want the golf course lifestyle with flexibility, it is genuinely hard to replicate this combination elsewhere in Williamson County at this price point. For a comparison across Franklin’s luxury golf communities, contact Patrick Higgins at 615-682-1718.
