Pembrooke Farms

MURFREESBORO’S UPSCALE ESTABLISHED COMMUNITY

Location and Daily Life in Pembrooke Farms

Pembrooke Farms sits in the 37129 zip code on the west side of Murfreesboro, Tennessee, in one of the fastest-growing corridors in Rutherford County. The community gives residents fast access to Veterans Parkway, Manson Pike, and the wider network of roads connecting southwest Murfreesboro to the rest of the metro. Everyday errands — grocery stores, restaurants, and retail along Veterans Parkway and Fortress Boulevard — are within a five to ten minute drive.

For commuters, Pembrooke Farms offers a reasonable drive northwest toward Smyrna and LaVergne, and sits within 35 to 45 minutes of downtown Nashville under normal traffic conditions. The neighborhood’s western Murfreesboro location is particularly appealing to buyers who work along the I-24 corridor or in the Smyrna-area manufacturing and logistics sector. Stones River Greenway access points are a short drive away for families who prioritize outdoor recreation.

Pembrooke Farms comprises two sections — Section 1 and Section 2 — both developed in the 2020 to 2021 time frame. Homes sit on generous lots averaging roughly 0.39 to 0.40 acres, which is notably larger than what most buyers find in Murfreesboro subdivisions at comparable price points. The community has a quiet, low-density character with an upscale streetscape that sets it apart from the more densely platted developments that surround it.

The Homes in Pembrooke Farms

Homes in Pembrooke Farms run large, with sold homes ranging from approximately 3,196 to 3,427 square feet. The community includes both all-brick construction and hardboard-sided builds, giving buyers two distinct exterior profiles at similar price points. Lot sizes averaging just under 0.40 acres are a genuine differentiator in this price range — most 37129 subdivisions at comparable values are platted tighter.

Interior layouts prioritize main-level living. Homes feature primary suites on the main floor, open-concept kitchen and living areas designed for entertaining, and screened-in porches that take advantage of the generous lot depth. Upstairs you typically find additional bedrooms plus a large bonus room — one closed sale included a bonus room with a wet bar that could serve as a media room, home office suite, or flex living space. Garage configurations are substantial: three-car and four-car side-entry garages appear in the closed sales data, which is uncommon for this zip code.

Bedroom counts range from four to five, with full bathrooms ranging from three to four. The combination of oversized lots, main-level primaries, and multi-car garages makes Pembrooke Farms a strong fit for buyers who need more functional space than most Murfreesboro communities in the $700K-$800K range can deliver.

Amenities and Community Character

Pembrooke Farms is a quiet, low-density community rather than an amenity-heavy subdivision with pools and clubhouses. That profile appeals to a specific type of buyer: one who wants a premium home on a large lot in a well-built neighborhood without paying HOA fees that support infrastructure they may never use. The annual HOA — which runs approximately $240 per year across both sections — keeps the common areas maintained without the overhead of a resort-style amenity package.

The screened-in porches that appear across multiple homes in this community reflect a design philosophy oriented toward outdoor living at the lot level rather than shared amenity access. With nearly 0.40-acre lots, residents have meaningful private yard space for gardening, play, or simply enjoying the quieter character of this part of southwest Murfreesboro. Buyers who want a pool can find communities with that feature nearby, but those who prioritize space, privacy, and build quality over shared amenities will find Pembrooke Farms well worth the attention.

Schools Serving Pembrooke Farms

Pembrooke Farms is zoned to Rutherford County Schools. The middle and high school assignments are consistent across the community: Stewarts Creek Middle School and Stewarts Creek High School. Elementary school assignments vary by section — Section 1 homes are zoned to Brown’s Chapel Elementary School, while Section 2 homes fall under Stewarts Creek Elementary School. Buyers with school-age children should confirm their specific assignment with Rutherford County Schools at the time of purchase, as zoning can shift with redistricting.

Stewarts Creek High School is a well-regarded campus in Rutherford County and draws buyers who prioritize the Stewarts Creek feeder pattern. For families relocating to Murfreesboro from outside Tennessee, the Rutherford County Schools system consistently ranks among the strongest in the state for student outcomes and extracurricular programming.

Why Work with Nashville Home Guru at Compass in Pembrooke Farms?

Pembrooke Farms sits in the 37129 zip code, where Compass holds a 17.8% market share across 1,001 closed sales — the highest concentration of any zip code in Murfreesboro. That market presence matters in a community where comparable sales are limited and pricing precision is critical. With only a handful of homes turning over annually in Pembrooke Farms itself, every negotiation depends on understanding the broader 37129 luxury corridor, not just the immediate subdivision.

Patrick Higgins and the Nashville Home Guru team have completed over 1,100 transactions totaling $500M+ in career sales across Middle Tennessee since 2014, including sustained activity across all four Murfreesboro zip codes. Several team members live in Murfreesboro and work this market daily. The team carries 100+ Google Reviews and 87 Zillow Reviews with a 5.0-star average, which reflects what happens when local knowledge and transaction volume combine in a market that rewards preparation.

In a community like Pembrooke Farms, where the price-per-square-foot variance between Section 1 all-brick construction and Section 2 hardboard homes can be meaningful in negotiations, having an agent who reads the data at that level of specificity is an advantage — not a luxury.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pembrooke Farms

What are homes selling for in Pembrooke Farms?
Closed sales over the past 12 months ranged from $785,000 to $787,500, with a median and average of $786,250. Homes in this community run 3,196 to 3,427 square feet, placing them at $230 to $246 per square foot — a competitive value for new-construction-era homes on large lots in the 37129 zip code. There is currently one active listing in the $775,000 range at 3,304 square feet, which keeps the price-per-square-foot story consistent. The tight price clustering across sold homes reflects the community’s limited inventory and strong buyer demand at this level.

When was Pembrooke Farms built and how large is the community?
Pembrooke Farms was developed between 2020 and 2021 across two sections — Section 1 and Section 2. The community is relatively small by Murfreesboro standards, which is part of what keeps its character quiet and low-density. Homes sit on lots averaging 0.39 to 0.40 acres, which is substantially larger than the typical quarter-acre lots found in most Murfreesboro subdivisions at this price point. The limited home count means turnover is infrequent, and buyers who wait for the right home in this community sometimes wait a year or more between opportunities.

Does Pembrooke Farms have an HOA, and what does it cover?
Yes, Pembrooke Farms has a homeowners association. HOA fees normalize to approximately $240 per year across both sections — Section 1 is structured as a monthly fee, Section 2 as a quarterly payment, but the annual total is similar. Fees cover common area maintenance. There is no community pool, clubhouse, or shared amenity package, which is consistent with the neighborhood’s character as a privacy-focused, lot-oriented community rather than a resort-style subdivision.

What schools serve Pembrooke Farms?
Pembrooke Farms is zoned to Rutherford County Schools — not Metro Nashville Public Schools. Middle and high school assignments are consistent across the community: Stewarts Creek Middle School and Stewarts Creek High School. Elementary school varies by section: Section 1 feeds Brown’s Chapel Elementary School, while Section 2 is zoned to Stewarts Creek Elementary School. Buyers should verify their specific assignment directly with Rutherford County Schools, as boundaries can change with redistricting.

What types of homes are in Pembrooke Farms?
Pembrooke Farms includes both all-brick and hardboard-sided construction — the two sections differ in exterior build type. Homes are two-story with primary suites on the main floor, open-concept main-level living areas, screened-in porches, and large upstairs bonus rooms. Garage configurations are larger than typical for Murfreesboro: three-car and four-car side-entry garages appear in the transaction history. Bedroom counts run four to five, with three to four full bathrooms. These are move-up homes designed for buyers who have outgrown the 2,000-2,500 square foot range and want a premium product without the density of a large master-planned community.

What lot sizes can buyers expect in Pembrooke Farms?
Lot sizes in Pembrooke Farms average approximately 0.39 to 0.40 acres — well above the quarter-acre standard in most Murfreesboro subdivisions at comparable price points. The depth and width of these lots allows for meaningful backyard space even with a large footprint home, which is a primary driver of buyer interest in this community over other 37129 options.

Is Pembrooke Farms a good fit for move-up families relocating to Murfreesboro?
It is, particularly for families relocating from out of state who are looking for a finished, low-density neighborhood with large lots, a Stewarts Creek school assignment, and a price point in the $775K-$800K range. The 3,200-3,400 square foot floor plans accommodate four to five bedrooms and three to four full baths, which covers most family configurations. The screened porch, oversized garage, and main-level primary suite are features common to buyers upgrading from a suburban market where those specs are standard. Commute access to the I-24 corridor is reasonable, and the community’s 2020-2021 build vintage means most buyers are not walking into deferred maintenance issues on day one.

How does Patrick Higgins approach buying or selling in Pembrooke Farms?
With only two closed sales in the rolling 12-month window, Pembrooke Farms is a community where pricing precision depends entirely on reading the broader 37129 context — not just the immediate subdivision. Patrick’s approach starts with the price-per-square-foot differential between the all-brick Section 1 homes and the hardboard Section 2 builds, which can affect positioning by $10-$15 per square foot in the comps analysis. He then layers in the activity along the Stewarts Creek corridor — Blackman Meadows, Stewart Creek Farms, and comparable communities — to establish a defensible market range. For sellers, knowing that one closed sale here had a list price of $820,000 and sold at $785,000 is the kind of data point that informs a realistic pricing strategy from day one, not after a price reduction.

Patrick Higgins of Nashville Home Guru at Compass is consistently recognized as one of the top-performing real estate agents in Murfreesboro and all of Middle Tennessee.

Can I access a Pembrooke Farms home before it hits Zillow?
Yes. As part of Compass, Nashville Home Guru has access to Compass Private Exclusive and Coming Soon listings that are not yet on Zillow, Redfin, or the public MLS. In a community as small as Pembrooke Farms — where homes change hands only a few times per year — getting early access to a listing before it goes public can be the difference between securing the home and missing it entirely. There is no additional cost to the buyer for accessing Compass’s off-market pipeline. Buyers who want to stay ahead of Pembrooke Farms inventory should connect with Patrick’s team directly so they are positioned when a home becomes available before it goes live.

What is my Pembrooke Farms home worth in today’s market?
Automated valuation tools like Zillow’s Zestimate struggle in small communities like Pembrooke Farms, where there are only a handful of comparable sales per year and meaningful differences between Section 1 all-brick homes and Section 2 hardboard builds. A $230 vs. $246 price-per-square-foot variance — driven by construction type, lot orientation, and condition — can shift a home’s true market value by $50,000 or more at this price point, and automated tools are not built to detect those nuances. For a real number, use the Hifello tool below for an instant estimate, then call Patrick directly for a full data-backed CMA that accounts for the specifics of your home’s section, construction type, and current market positioning. Reach him at 615-682-1718.

We’ve owned our Pembrooke Farms home since it was built — how do we price it right going into today’s market?
This is exactly the question a Pembrooke Farms seller should be asking. With only two closed sales in the 12-month trailing window, there are no easy comps to pull — and the data that does exist tells a story worth understanding before you set a list price. One seller priced at $820,000 and closed at $785,000. The other listed and sold at $787,500 with no reduction. The difference? Likely a combination of construction type, presentation, and how the home was positioned against the broader 37129 market. Sellers in Pembrooke Farms need a pricing strategy built on zip-code context and a realistic read of buyer expectations at the $780K-$800K level in Rutherford County right now — not on automated valuations or what a neighbor “got” two years ago. Patrick Higgins will walk you through the full comparable analysis and build a strategy around your home’s specific attributes. Call or text 615-682-1718 to start that conversation.

We’re relocating from out of state — can we buy in Pembrooke Farms remotely?
Nashville Home Guru at Compass has guided dozens of families through remote purchases in Murfreesboro, including buyers from Georgia, Michigan, Illinois, Virginia, Florida, Texas, and Wisconsin who have purchased homes in the 37129 corridor without ever seeing the home in person before closing. The Stewarts Creek school assignment, the lot sizes, and the 2020-2021 build vintage make Pembrooke Farms particularly appealing to relocating families who are trying to land in a specific school zone with a move-in-ready product. Ashley Cherry, a Murfreesboro native on the NHG team, and Patrick Higgins provide on-the-ground representation, video walkthroughs, inspection coordination, and local market context that bridge the distance gap. The team’s track record with relocating families — reflected in 100+ Google Reviews and 87 Zillow Reviews — means you are not their first out-of-state transaction. You can reach Patrick directly at 615-682-1718 to discuss the remote buying process.
