HOMES OFF NEW SHACKLE ISLAND ROAD | HENDERSONVILLE TN 37075

Location and Daily Life in Sumner Meadows

Sumner Meadows is a single-family community in Hendersonville’s 37075 zip code, located off New Shackle Island Road. Streets within the neighborhood include Meadow Creek Court, Meadow Crest Court, Oak Meadow Court, Sumner Meadows Court, and Sumner Meadows Lane. The New Shackle Island setting keeps residents on the north side of Hendersonville, close to shopping and dining along Nashville Pike, local parks and recreation, and a short drive to Vietnam Veterans Boulevard for the commute toward Nashville or Gallatin.

Sumner Meadows appeals to families and buyers who want a late-1990s home in good condition without the carrying costs of a large amenity development. The low monthly homeowners association fee keeps the community maintained while staying nearly negligible on a monthly budget, and the cul-de-sac street layout gives the neighborhood a quiet, contained feel.

The Homes

Sumner Meadows was built in two phases between 1998 and 2000, so the homes share a consistent era and construction style while offering real variety in size. Recent sales ranged from about 1,616 to 2,609 square feet, with three to four bedrooms and two to three full baths. Layouts are open and practical in the way late-1990s construction tends to be, and because the homes are less than thirty years old, update needs are modest compared with Hendersonville’s mid-century neighborhoods.

The low monthly homeowners association fee of roughly $23 to $25 is worth noting: it maintains the community without the meaningful monthly cost that newer amenity-heavy developments carry. Combined with a convenient north-side location, that keeps Sumner Meadows competitive against both older and newer alternatives.

Schools

Sumner Meadows is served by Sumner County Schools. Recent sales show George A Whitten Elementary School and Knox Doss Middle School at Drakes Creek, with the high school assignment split between Station Camp High School and Beech Senior High School depending on the specific address.
