Trafalgar Square

MURFREESBORO’S ESTABLISHED FAMILY COMMUNITY

Location & Daily Life

Trafalgar Square is a well-established single-family neighborhood tucked off Fortress Boulevard in Murfreesboro’s fast-growing 37128 zip code. Homes sit along Garcia Boulevard and Piccadilly Drive, giving the community a distinctive street identity that residents recognize immediately.

Daily convenience is a real selling point here. The Kroger on Fortress Boulevard is about five minutes away, and the broader Blackman corridor puts you within reach of dozens of restaurants, urgent care clinics, and retail options without needing to cross into congested central Murfreesboro. Murfreesboro Medical Clinic’s Blackman location is close by, and the Stones River Greenway access points provide outdoor recreation within a short drive.

Interstate 840 is accessible nearby, making commutes toward Nashville, Brentwood, or Franklin manageable. For buyers relocating to Rutherford County and prioritizing school quality, proximity to the Blackman cluster, and a neighborhood that feels settled rather than still under construction, Trafalgar Square checks the boxes that matter most.

The Homes

Trafalgar Square was built primarily between 2013 and 2017, with homes ranging from approximately 2,566 to 3,100 square feet. The subdivision consists entirely of single-family detached homes, most in traditional and contemporary styles with brick or partial brick exteriors common in this price range and era of Murfreesboro construction.

Floor plans typically feature 4 to 5 bedrooms and 2 to 4 full bathrooms, plus a half bath. Lots run from roughly a quarter to a third of an acre, providing meaningful yard space that is harder to find in newer Murfreesboro communities built at tighter densities. Two-car garages are standard, and many homes include open-concept main floors with separate dining areas, owner’s suites on the main level, and upstairs bonus rooms or secondary bedroom clusters.

The community is divided into multiple sections, with Trafalgar Square Sec 3 representing the largest concentration of recent sales. Because Trafalgar Square was not built by a single national builder, buyers will find some variation in finishes and floor plan layouts from home to home, which keeps the streetscape visually diverse.

Amenities

Trafalgar Square is a quiet, established residential neighborhood rather than an amenity-rich master-planned community. There is no community pool, clubhouse, or trail system within the subdivision itself. What residents trade off in on-site amenities, they gain in larger lot sizes, lower HOA fees, and a location that puts them close to everything the Blackman corridor has developed over the past decade.

The Blackman YMCA on Fortress Boulevard is one of the most popular family fitness facilities in Rutherford County and is minutes away. Barfield Crescent Park, one of Murfreesboro’s largest greenway parks, is a short drive east and offers miles of paved trails, sports fields, and open green space. The Stones River Greenway provides additional walking and cycling routes connecting several parts of the county.

For dining and shopping, the Fortress Boulevard and Veterans Parkway corridors offer a full range of options, from casual chain restaurants to locally owned spots. Grocery stores, pharmacies, urgent care, and home improvement retailers are all within a 5 to 10 minute drive.

Schools

Trafalgar Square is served entirely by Rutherford County Schools, one of the fastest-growing school districts in Tennessee. Based on closed sales data from RealTracs MLS, all homes in the subdivision are zoned for the Blackman cluster, which is among the most sought-after feeder patterns in Rutherford County.

Blackman Elementary School serves kindergarten through fifth grade and has consistently received strong parent ratings for academics and staff engagement. Blackman Middle School serves grades 6 through 8, and Blackman High School rounds out the feeder pattern. Blackman High is a large, comprehensive campus that offers Advanced Placement courses, competitive athletics, and a variety of extracurricular programs. For many families relocating to Murfreesboro, being zoned for Blackman High School is a deciding factor in their neighborhood search.
