Stonewood

SMYRNA’S ESTABLISHED LUXURY ESTATE COMMUNITY

Location & Daily Life

Stonewood sits off Almaville Road in Smyrna, Tennessee (zip code 37167), in the southern reaches of Rutherford County. The neighborhood occupies a quieter, more rural-feeling pocket of Smyrna, with streets including Stonewood Drive, Woodcliff Drive, Holywell Court, and Mandarin Court winding through generous lots that feel far removed from the suburban sprawl closer to I-24.

Daily errands are easy from here. Sam Ridley Parkway puts grocery stores, restaurants, and retailers within a 10-minute drive, and the interchange at I-24 and Highway 840 connects commuters to Nashville (roughly 25 miles northwest), Murfreesboro (about 10 miles southeast), and Franklin (approximately 20 miles southwest). That triangle of access makes Stonewood a practical choice for households with jobs spread across Middle Tennessee.

The area has a distinct feel compared to tighter Smyrna subdivisions. Lots run from roughly one-third of an acre to well over an acre, wooded backdrops are common, and many homes were built with enough setback from the street to give genuine privacy. Residents describe the neighborhood as quiet and owner-occupied, with neighbors who take pride in their properties and have largely stayed put since the community was built.

The Homes

Stonewood is an established single-family community built primarily between 2005 and 2014. The homes are predominantly all-brick construction, which is one of the defining characteristics that buyers cite when they describe why they chose the neighborhood. Brick exteriors are relatively rare in Smyrna subdivisions at this price point, which adds both curb appeal and long-term durability.

Floor plans range from around 2,685 square feet to just over 4,188 square feet, with most homes falling in the 3,000 to 3,800 square foot range. Layouts are traditional and functional, featuring formal dining rooms, dedicated office or bonus spaces, and multiple living areas. Bedrooms range from four to five, with full bath counts typically running two to four. Kitchens were built to the standards of the mid-2000s and early 2010s and many have been updated since. Master suites are generous, and several homes feature a primary suite on the main level, which is increasingly hard to find in this market segment.

Lot sizes are a genuine selling point. The CSV data shows acreage running from 0.34 to 1.2 acres per closed sale, and the listings confirm wooded backyards, private retreats, and in-ground pool installations on several properties. A handful of homes have been built with saltwater pools, and the lot depths accommodate outdoor living spaces that are simply not possible in newer, denser developments. HOA fees are low, ranging from approximately $180 to $238 per year, which is consistent with a community that does not maintain extensive shared amenities but keeps the entrance and common areas maintained.

Amenities

Stonewood is a residential neighborhood without a clubhouse, pool, or fitness facility maintained by the HOA, which is reflected directly in the remarkably low annual dues. What the community delivers instead is space, mature landscaping, and privacy that amenity-heavy developments with $200/month fees rarely achieve.

Several homes in Stonewood have private in-ground pools, which is more common here than in comparable Smyrna communities given the larger lot sizes. The wooded backdrops on many properties create natural buffers between neighbors, and the scale of the homes makes entertaining on-site easy without needing shared facilities.

For recreation beyond the neighborhood, the Smyrna/Rutherford County area offers strong options. Long Hunter State Park on J. Percy Priest Lake is approximately 15 minutes north and provides hiking, picnicking, and lake access. The Sam Ridley corridor along Veterans Parkway has grown rapidly with dining and retail. Downtown Smyrna has a small-town walkable core, and the Murfreesboro greenway and sports complex are a short drive southeast for families who want more structured recreational programming.

Schools

Stonewood is located in Rutherford County and served by Rutherford County Schools. School assignments vary slightly depending on the specific address within the neighborhood. The closed sales data from RealTracs shows homes assigned to both Stewarts Creek Elementary School and Brown’s Chapel Elementary School at the elementary level, with Stewarts Creek Middle School for middle grades and Stewarts Creek High School for high school.

The Stewarts Creek school cluster is relatively new and has been well-received in the community since it opened to serve the growing southern Smyrna area. Stewarts Creek High School, which opened in 2018, was built specifically to relieve overcrowding at Smyrna High and La Vergne High and serves the zip codes surrounding the Stonewood neighborhood. Rutherford County Schools as a district consistently performs above state average on Tennessee assessments, and the county’s investment in newer school facilities in this area reflects growth in the community Patrick’s team serves every day.

Always verify current school assignments directly with Rutherford County Schools before making any purchase decision, as zone boundaries can change.

The Compass Three-Phase Marketing Strategy for Sellers

For Stonewood homeowners thinking about selling, Compass’s approach to bringing a home to market is fundamentally different from the traditional list-on-MLS-and-wait model. The Three-Phase Marketing Strategy is designed to generate maximum demand before your home ever hits Zillow or Realtor.com:

Phase 1, Compass Private Exclusive, puts your home in front of Compass buyers and agents before any public launch. You can test your price and receive real feedback without accumulating days on market or triggering a visible price history. Phase 2, Compass Coming Soon, launches your listing on Compass.com to a buyer audience that is actively searching. Because you have not yet gone live on the MLS, no days-on-market clock is running and no price history is visible. Phase 3 is the full public launch across the MLS, Zillow, Redfin, and all third-party platforms, arriving with momentum already built from the first two phases.

Compass data shows that pre-marketed homes using this strategy close at 2.9% higher prices, go under contract 20% faster, and are 30% less likely to require a price reduction. For a $740,000 Stonewood home, a 2.9% improvement in closing price represents more than $21,000 in additional proceeds.

Frequently Asked Questions About Stonewood Smyrna TN

What is the price range for homes in Stonewood?

Closed sales over the past 12 months ranged from $580,000 to $950,000, with a median of $740,000 and an average of approximately $751,000. The wide range reflects meaningful differences in lot size, square footage, finishes, and whether a home has features like a private pool. Larger homes on lots approaching an acre command the upper end of that range.

What type of buyer is Stonewood best suited for?

Stonewood appeals strongly to move-up buyers who have outgrown newer Smyrna subdivisions and want more space, more privacy, and a home with genuine architectural character. All-brick construction, large lots, and finished square footage in the 3,000-plus range make this a natural fit for families with multiple children, remote workers who need dedicated office space, or buyers who entertain and want outdoor areas that a standard quarter-acre lot cannot accommodate. Commuters with jobs in Nashville, Murfreesboro, or Franklin find the I-24 and 840 access genuinely useful. The neighborhood is not a starter-home community, and the price point reflects that.

What are the HOA fees in Stonewood?

Based on the most recent closed sales data, HOA fees in Stonewood range from approximately $180 to $238 per year, or roughly $15 to $20 per month. This is among the lowest annual HOA costs in Smyrna for a neighborhood at this price point. The community does not maintain a pool, clubhouse, or fitness facility, which accounts for the low fee structure.

What schools serve Stonewood?

Stonewood is in Rutherford County and served by Rutherford County Schools. Current address-verified assignments from the MLS include Stewarts Creek Elementary School and Brown’s Chapel Elementary School at the elementary level, Stewarts Creek Middle School, and Stewarts Creek High School. The Stewarts Creek cluster is relatively new and serves the growing southern Smyrna corridor. Always confirm current assignments with the district before purchasing.

When was Stonewood built?

Stonewood was developed primarily between 2005 and 2014. The neighborhood is considered established at this point, meaning there is no active construction, all landscaping and trees have matured, and the community has a settled, quiet feel that newer developments are still working toward.

Does Stonewood have a pool or community amenities?

Stonewood does not have a community pool, clubhouse, or fitness center. The HOA focuses on maintaining entrance areas and common spaces. Several individual homes in the neighborhood have private in-ground pools, and the generous lot sizes make adding a pool feasible for buyers who want one. The tradeoff is one of the lowest HOA fee structures in Smyrna at this price point.

How many homes are in Stonewood?

Stonewood is a relatively small, low-turnover community. Based on MLS data, approximately 7 homes closed in the past 12 months, which reflects both the limited inventory in the neighborhood and the tendency for owners to stay for many years. When a Stonewood home does come to market, competition is typically meaningful given the limited supply of all-brick estate-style homes at this price point in Smyrna.
