Reid Hill Commons

FRANKLIN’S PREMIER 55+ ACTIVE ADULT COMMUNITY

Location and Daily Life in Reid Hill Commons

Reid Hill Commons sits off Highway 96 West in Franklin, Tennessee, one of the most convenient corridors in Williamson County for residents who want quick access to everyday amenities without the noise and traffic of a major thoroughfare. The community is tucked behind the Reid Hill Commons Shopping Center, which puts a Walgreens, dining options, and everyday retail within a five-minute walk.

Westhaven, Franklin’s beloved walkable mixed-use community, is about a mile away. Residents frequently walk or drive the short distance for coffee, dining, and the seasonal events Westhaven hosts throughout the year. Historic downtown Franklin is roughly three miles east, making this one of the better-positioned 55+ communities in terms of real proximity to Franklin’s core amenities.

The Highway 96 West corridor also connects easily to I-840, giving residents a convenient bypass route to Brentwood, Cool Springs, and beyond without touching I-65. Streets within Reid Hill Commons include Clapham Street, Connelly Court, Prince William Lane, and Wrennewood Lane, all of which are flat, sidewalk-lined, and designed for easy walkability.

The Homes

Reid Hill Commons was developed in two sections, with construction running from approximately 2003 to 2008. All homes are all-brick construction on slab foundations, which significantly reduces exterior maintenance compared to homes with vinyl or fiber cement siding. The brick-on-slab combination is a key reason the HOA can cover exterior maintenance and still keep dues relatively affordable.

Floor plans are primarily single-story (ranch-style) with 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths. Square footage runs from approximately 1,540 to 1,976 square feet across closed sales, which is a practical size range for the active adult lifestyle: enough room for a home office or hobby space without excess square footage to maintain. Several homes include a heated and cooled sunroom or Florida room that adds livable space beyond the listed square footage.

Interior features typically include gas fireplaces in main living areas, hardwood or laminate flooring, granite kitchen countertops, and attached two-car front-entry garages. Wide doorways, step-less entries, and accessible bathroom features are common throughout the community, consistent with 55+ design standards. Lot sizes are compact, ranging from approximately 0.04 to 0.08 acres, which is intentional in a maintenance-free community where the HOA handles exterior and grounds upkeep.

Community Amenities

Reid Hill Commons is designed as a low-maintenance community, and the amenities reflect that philosophy. The HOA maintains all exterior grounds, landscaping, and common areas, which means residents can leave town without worrying about yard work or exterior upkeep piling up in their absence.

Walking paths wind through the community, and a picnic pavilion provides a gathering space for neighbors. The community is pet-friendly and fully sidewalked, making it practical for daily walks. Parking is well-planned, with attached two-car garages standard across most homes and additional street parking at cul-de-sac ends.

The location itself functions as an amenity. The Reid Hill Commons Shopping Center immediately adjacent to the neighborhood offers daily conveniences without requiring a drive. Kroger, Publix in Westhaven, and additional dining along Highway 96 West are all within a short distance.

How does Reid Hill Commons compare to other 55+ communities near Franklin?
