Silver Springs

MOUNT JULIET’S ESTABLISHED FAMILY COMMUNITY

Location and Daily Life in Silver Springs

Silver Springs sits off Benders Ferry Road in Mount Juliet, Tennessee, putting residents squarely in Wilson County with straightforward access to both downtown Mount Juliet and the Lebanon Road corridor. The neighborhood is roughly 20 minutes from downtown Nashville and about 10 minutes from the Providence Marketplace shopping area, which covers essentially every daily errand from Costco to restaurants to medical offices.

The streets inside Silver Springs include Karen Drive, Bridgeport Way, Southshore Point, Midtown Trail, and Golden Grove. The road network gives you clean access to Lebanon Road without having to cut through commercial traffic, which is a practical advantage most residents appreciate quickly. Interstate access is nearby via the I-40 Mount Juliet interchange, making commutes to Nashville, Smyrna, or Murfreesboro manageable.

One of the biggest draws for Silver Springs is its proximity to two of Middle Tennessee’s top recreational lakes. Old Hickory Lake is just minutes away, and Percy Priest Lake is a short drive south. If your weekends involve a boat, fishing from a kayak, or just finding a quiet spot on the water, the location is genuinely hard to beat at this price point in Wilson County.

The Golden Bear Gateway area near the neighborhood connects to a strip of local dining and retail, and Lebanon Road provides access to a broad range of restaurants and shops heading east or west. The neighborhood has grown into a mature community where residents know their neighbors, and the streets see plenty of evening walkers and families out on bikes.

The Homes

Silver Springs was developed across multiple phases, with Universal Builders constructing a significant portion of the community. The neighborhood spans several phases, including Phase 1 Section 1, Phase 4, and Phase 5A. Construction dates in recent closed sales range from 2008 through 2021, so you will find a range of ages and finishes throughout the subdivision.

All-brick construction is common throughout Silver Springs, with some homes featuring hardboard or partial brick with stone accents. Floor plans typically run from approximately 2,100 to 2,600 square feet, with 3 to 4 bedrooms and 2 to 3 full bathrooms. Many plans include a half bath on the main level. Lot sizes average around 0.15 to 0.20 acres, consistent with the Wilson County suburban development pattern for this era.

Interior features vary by phase and age of construction. Homes built in the 2008 to 2013 range often feature traditional architectural details like wainscoting and crown molding. Newer phases from 2019 to 2021 lean toward more contemporary finishes with open-concept layouts. Two-car attached garages are standard throughout the neighborhood. Several homes have bonus rooms or second-floor flex spaces that current owners use as home offices, playrooms, or guest rooms.

Amenities

Silver Springs offers a community pool and common area amenities that make the HOA dues worthwhile without pushing into the high-cost tier seen in some larger Williamson County developments. The pool is the centerpiece of warm-weather life in the neighborhood and gets heavy use from families during summer months.

What really elevates Silver Springs as a livable community is what surrounds it. The proximity to Old Hickory Lake and Percy Priest Lake gives residents access to boating, fishing, paddleboarding, and waterfront parks just minutes from the neighborhood. For a subdivision at this price point in Wilson County, the lake access alone sets Silver Springs apart from comparable communities located further inland.

Benders Ferry Road offers a low-traffic route that connects to the broader Mount Juliet road network. The Golden Bear Gateway entrance road leads to Lebanon Road quickly, giving residents a practical route to grocery stores, the Providence Marketplace, and I-40 without fighting subdivision sprawl traffic. The Providence area includes every major big-box retailer, dozens of restaurants, and a growing medical corridor.

Schools Serving Silver Springs

Elementary: West Elementary School serves Silver Springs students. The school is part of Wilson County Schools, consistently rated as one of the stronger public school systems in Middle Tennessee.

Wilson County Schools is widely regarded as one of the best public school systems in Tennessee, which is a meaningful factor for families relocating from other states or moving from higher-cost Davidson County neighborhoods.
