Sunnyacres

MOUNT JULIET’S AFFORDABLE ESTABLISHED COMMUNITY

Location and Daily Life in Sunnyacres

Sunnyacres is an established single-family community in the Gladeville corridor of Mount Juliet, Tennessee, zip code 37122, within Wilson County. Built between 1979 and 1984, the community sits near Providence Marketplace and represents one of the most affordable entry points into the Mount Juliet housing market.

Streets in Sunnyacres include Sunrise Circle, Sunset Drive, Meadowview Drive, Meadowview Court, Sunny Acre Drive, Sunny Acre Court, and Belinda Parkway. The community is organized across four sections (Sunnyacres 1 through Sunnyacres Sec 4) and sits within one of the more established residential pockets in eastern Mount Juliet.

The location near Providence Marketplace gives residents walkable access to Wilson County’s largest open-air retail center, with grocery stores, restaurants, and retail within minutes. Providence Park, the county’s primary athletic and recreation complex, is a short drive away. Downtown Nashville is approximately 25 miles west via I-40, with a typical commute of 30 to 35 minutes.

For buyers looking for an established community with larger lots, no HOA, and a price point that new construction simply cannot match in the 37122 zip code, Sunnyacres offers a combination of value and location that is increasingly rare in the Mount Juliet market.

The Homes in Sunnyacres

Sunnyacres features mostly single-story ranch homes built between 1979 and 1984 on generously sized lots. Lot sizes across recent sales range from 0.25 to 0.44 acres, with an average of 0.33 acres. That is significantly larger than the 0.10 to 0.20 acre lots typical in Mount Juliet’s newer communities, and the mature landscaping on these properties reflects more than 40 years of growth.

Over the past 12 months, all 8 closed sales were 3-bedroom homes. Full bathroom counts ranged from 1 to 3, with the majority having 1 to 2 full baths. Square footage ranged from 1,050 to 3,010, though the typical Sunnyacres home is closer to 1,050 to 1,475 square feet. The 3,010-square-foot sale at 401 Belinda Parkway is a 2-story home that represents an outlier in an otherwise single-story community.

Construction types vary across the community and include all brick, partial brick, vinyl siding, wood siding, and aluminum siding with partial brick. Garage configurations range from no covered parking to 2-car attached garages, depending on the section and whether the home has been updated. Most homes sit on block or slab foundations in ranch-style floor plans.

There is no HOA in Sunnyacres. Homeowners have full control over their properties without monthly assessments, architectural review, or deed restrictions beyond standard Wilson County regulations. Combined with the lower purchase price, the absence of HOA fees keeps total monthly housing costs well below what buyers face in newer Mount Juliet communities.

Amenities

Sunnyacres does not have community amenities such as a pool, clubhouse, or walking trails, and there is no HOA. The primary draw is the lot size itself: with an average of a third of an acre, homeowners have room for private outdoor living, gardens, workshops, and the kind of yard space that newer Mount Juliet communities rarely offer.

Providence Park, Wilson County’s largest athletic and recreation complex, is located near the community and provides sports fields, walking trails, and green space. Percy Priest Lake offers boating, fishing, and waterfront recreation within a short drive. The Providence Marketplace retail center is within minutes for everyday shopping, dining, and services.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sunnyacres Mount Juliet TN

What is the price range for homes in Sunnyacres?

Over the past 12 months, homes in Sunnyacres closed between $305,000 and $365,000, with a median of $324,500 and an average of $333,084. Most sales fall in a tight band between $305,000 and $365,000, making Sunnyacres one of the most affordable communities in the 37122 zip code. All 8 sales were 3-bedroom homes on lots averaging a third of an acre.

Does Sunnyacres have an HOA?

No. Sunnyacres does not have a homeowners association or monthly HOA fees. Homeowners are responsible for all property maintenance. For buyers on a budget, the absence of a $100 to $300 monthly HOA fee on top of an already-affordable mortgage makes a meaningful difference in total monthly housing costs compared to newer Mount Juliet communities.

What schools serve Sunnyacres in Mount Juliet?

All Sunnyacres students attend Rutland Elementary School. Middle school assignment varies by address: most sections are zoned for Gladeville Middle School, with select addresses zoned for West Wilson Middle School or Mt. Juliet Middle School. All students attend Wilson Central High School. Nashville Home Guru verifies school zoning for every buyer client. Call 615-682-1718.

How large are the lots in Sunnyacres?

Lot sizes in recent sales range from 0.25 to 0.44 acres, with an average of 0.33 acres. That is roughly two to three times the lot size in most Mount Juliet communities built after 2010. The larger lots, combined with 40+ years of mature landscaping and tree growth, give Sunnyacres a character that newer subdivisions simply cannot replicate at any price point.

When was Sunnyacres built?

Sunnyacres was built between 1979 and 1984 across four sections. The homes are primarily single-story ranch-style with mixed exterior materials including all brick, partial brick, vinyl siding, wood siding, and aluminum siding. Buyers should expect homes in varying states of update, from original condition to fully renovated. The renovation status is the primary driver of both price and price per square foot within the community.

What styles of homes are in Sunnyacres?

The majority of Sunnyacres homes are single-story ranch-style, with typical floor plans ranging from 1,050 to 1,475 square feet and 3 bedrooms. A small number of 2-story traditional homes exist in the community, including one that sold at 3,010 square feet. Garage configurations vary: some homes have 1 to 2 car attached or detached garages, while others have carports or no covered parking. Construction includes all brick, partial brick, vinyl siding, wood siding, and aluminum siding.

How does Sunnyacres compare to other affordable options in Mount Juliet?

Sunnyacres is one of the few Mount Juliet communities where buyers can purchase a home under $325,000. For comparison, entry-level new construction in communities like Benders Cove starts near $457,000 for a 3-bedroom home. The trade-off is clear: Sunnyacres delivers larger lots and no HOA at a lower price, but the homes are 40+ years old and may require renovation investment. For buyers who prioritize value, lot size, and location over new finishes, Sunnyacres represents a strong entry point into the Mount Juliet market.

Is Sunnyacres a good fit for first-time buyers and investors in Mount Juliet?

Sunnyacres is one of the strongest value plays in the 37122 zip code for both first-time buyers and investors. A median sale price of $324,500 with no HOA keeps monthly payments substantially below what the same buyer would face in newer communities where the entry price is $100,000+ higher with an additional $100 to $300 monthly HOA fee. For investors, the combination of affordable purchase price, larger lots (0.25 to 0.44 acres), proximity to Providence Marketplace, and Wilson Central High School zoning creates a profile that supports both rental demand and long-term appreciation. Nashville Home Guru can help you evaluate renovation costs against resale potential for any Sunnyacres property. Call 615-682-1718.

How does Patrick Higgins approach buying or selling in Sunnyacres?

Patrick’s team treats every Sunnyacres transaction with the same data-driven approach used for higher-priced communities. With 8 sales in the past 12 months and a price-per-square-foot range of $121 to $322, the comparable set requires careful analysis of renovation status, exterior condition, garage configuration, and lot position. A fully renovated Sunnyacres ranch on a 0.44-acre lot prices very differently from an original-condition home on a quarter acre. Patrick’s team evaluates each variable to position the home accurately. Call 615-682-1718.

Can I buy a Sunnyacres home before it hits Zillow?

Yes. Nashville Home Guru’s position inside the Compass Private Exclusive and Coming Soon network means we often know about listings before they appear on public search portals.

Working with a Compass buyer’s agent gives you access to this pre-market inventory at no additional cost to you as the buyer. Contact Patrick Higgins at 615-682-1718.

What is my Sunnyacres home worth in today’s market?

Sunnyacres homes closed between $305,000 and $365,000 over the past 12 months, with a median of $324,500 and an average price per square foot of $266. Automated tools like Zillow’s Zestimate struggle with established communities like Sunnyacres because the algorithm cannot accurately assess renovation status, exterior condition, garage presence, or lot premium on older homes with mixed construction types. The $200+ per square foot spread in recent sales ($121 to $322) reflects how much condition and updates matter in this community.
