The Villages of Fox Creek

MURFREESBORO’S ESTABLISHED FAMILY-FRIENDLY COMMUNITY

Location & Daily Life

The Villages of Fox Creek sits in the 37127 zip code on the western side of Murfreesboro, placing residents close to just about everything that makes this city one of the fastest-growing in Tennessee. I-24 is minutes away, making commutes to Nashville, Smyrna, or LaVergne straightforward. Middle Tennessee State University is a short drive east, and the South Church Street corridor puts grocery stores, restaurants, and retail well within reach.

Day to day, this neighborhood has the feel of a quiet residential pocket. Streets like Foxworth Court and Turtle Trace are low-traffic, the lots tend to back to wooded areas on the edges of the subdivision, and the overall pace is calm without feeling remote. For families, the Rutherford County school assignment here — Black Fox Elementary, Whitworth-Buchanan Middle, and Riverdale High — is a genuine draw.

The neighborhood’s position in west Murfreesboro also puts it near Percy Priest Lake recreation areas, the Stones River Greenway access points, and the Veterans Parkway shopping district. This is a well-connected address without the price premium of newer master-planned communities further south.

The Homes

The Villages of Fox Creek was built primarily between 2011 and 2014, giving the community a cohesive, established character. Homes are single-family, ranging from around 1,370 to over 2,000 square feet, and are built on lots of approximately 0.28 to 0.33 acres — generous by Murfreesboro subdivision standards. Construction is partial brick and vinyl siding, a combination common in this era and price point for Rutherford County.

Floor plans run 1.5 stories, typically with all bedrooms on the main floor or a primary suite main-level with a bonus room above the garage. That layout is a practical feature — the bonus room converts easily to a home office, media room, or guest suite. Primary suites tend to include tray ceilings, walk-in closets, and bathrooms with double vanities and either a soaking tub or glass walk-in shower. Kitchens feature granite countertops, upgraded cabinetry, and pantry access.

Outdoor spaces are a highlight here. Many homes include covered patios, screened porches, or decks, and backyard privacy is common on lots that back to wooded acreage. Fenced backyards, storage buildings, and two-car attached garages are standard. The neighborhood has no HOA fee based on MLS data from the past 12 months, which is a meaningful cost advantage compared to newer communities in the Murfreesboro market where HOA fees of $500 to $1,200 per year are typical.

Amenities

The Villages of Fox Creek is a residential neighborhood rather than an amenity-driven community, which is part of the appeal for buyers who don’t want to pay for a pool or clubhouse they’ll rarely use. The amenity package here is the location itself — the proximity to I-24, MTSU, and Murfreesboro’s expanding commercial corridors.

Within a few miles, residents have access to Stones River National Battlefield and Greenway trail system, which offers over 10 miles of paved multi-use trails connecting several Murfreesboro parks. Thompson’s Station Park and Hugh Walker Park are also nearby. Medical access is strong in this part of the city, with both Saint Thomas Rutherford Hospital and Ascension Saint Thomas Rutherford within a reasonable drive. The Veterans Parkway retail corridor along the western edge of Murfreesboro covers most everyday shopping needs without requiring a long drive.

Schools

Homes in the Villages of Fox Creek are located in Rutherford County and served by Rutherford County Schools, one of the larger and well-resourced school districts in Middle Tennessee.

The assignment for this subdivision is Black Fox Elementary, Whitworth-Buchanan Middle School, and Riverdale High School. Riverdale High has a strong academic and athletic reputation in Rutherford County and consistently draws attention for its career and technical education programs. Always verify current school assignments directly with Rutherford County Schools, as boundaries are subject to change.

For sellers in the Villages of Fox Creek specifically, the Compass Three Phase Marketing Strategy is a meaningful advantage. Here is how it works:

Phase 1 — Compass Private Exclusive: Your home is shared with Compass agents and their buyers before it goes public. This gives you the ability to test price and gather feedback without accumulating days on market or a visible price history.

Phase 2 — Compass Coming Soon: Your listing goes live on Compass.com, generating buyer interest and demand without triggering the MLS clock. Buyers find your home early — without seeing days on market or price reduction history.

Phase 3 — Public Launch: When you go live on the MLS and all third-party sites, you launch with maximum momentum already built. Compass data shows pre-marketed homes close at 2.9% higher prices, go under contract 20% faster, and are 30% less likely to require a price reduction.
