The Springs

MURFREESBORO’S PREMIER ALL-BRICK NEW CONSTRUCTION COMMUNITY

Location and Daily Life in The Springs

The Springs sits off Armstrong Valley Road in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, offering a rare combination of new construction quality and country-style living. This all-brick community started in 2021 and continues to add homes, giving buyers the opportunity to purchase move-in ready properties or work directly with the builder on new construction.

What sets The Springs apart from other Murfreesboro subdivisions is the lot sizes. Most homesites range from one-third to nearly half an acre, which means actual yard space rather than the postage-stamp lots common in newer developments. Several homes back up to open fields with no rear neighbors, creating the kind of privacy that’s increasingly hard to find at this price point.

The location works well for families who want breathing room without sacrificing convenience. Downtown Murfreesboro is 15 to 20 minutes away. Interstate 24 at Exit 80 is about 8 minutes from the neighborhood entrance. The Avenue Murfreesboro shopping center and Stones River Mall area are both roughly 12 minutes out. You get peaceful country living with easy access to everything Rutherford County has to offer.

Streets in The Springs include Carousel Drive, Carriage Drive, Canfield Drive, Congress Drive, Delzotto Drive, Goose Creek Lane, and Holly Springs Drive. The neighborhood layout provides good flow without the cut-through traffic that plagues some subdivisions.

The Homes

Trendsetter Homes is the primary builder in The Springs, known for quality construction and attention to detail. Every home features all-brick exterior construction with some hardboard accents. Brick homes require less maintenance than siding, hold their value better over time, and simply look more substantial from the street.

Floor plans range from approximately 2,800 to over 3,900 square feet. Most homes have 4 to 5 bedrooms and 3 to 4 bathrooms. Three-car garages are standard throughout the community, not an upgrade. Many floor plans include bonus rooms over the garage that work well as home offices, playrooms, or media rooms.

Interior finishes reflect what today’s buyers expect in this price range. You’ll find hardwood flooring on main levels, quartz countertops throughout, custom cabinetry with soft-close drawers, and stainless steel appliances. Open floor plans connect kitchens to great rooms, making the main living spaces feel spacious and functional for both daily life and entertaining.

Outdoor living gets serious attention here. Many homes include screened porches, covered patios, and outdoor fireplaces. Gas fireplaces inside add warmth during Tennessee winters. The combination of generous lot sizes and thoughtful outdoor spaces makes these homes feel larger than the square footage alone suggests.

Amenities and HOA

The Springs takes a minimalist approach to community amenities, and many buyers see this as a feature rather than a limitation. There’s no community pool, no clubhouse, and no fitness center. What you get instead is a remarkably low HOA fee of just $15 per month.

That $180 annual fee covers grounds maintenance for common areas and entrance landscaping. Compare this to neighborhoods with full amenity packages where HOA dues run $200 to $400 per month, and you’re saving $2,000 to $4,500 per year. Over the life of a mortgage, that adds up to serious money.

The trade-off works particularly well here because of the lot sizes. With one-third to nearly half an acre, most families have plenty of space for their own play areas, outdoor entertaining, and recreational activities. The generous yards essentially become private amenity spaces.

For community amenities like pools and recreation centers, residents have access to nearby options including Murfreesboro’s public facilities and private fitness centers throughout the area.
