Watercrest Park

SMYRNA’S TOWNHOME COMMUNITY OFF SAM RIDLEY PARKWAY

Location & Daily Life

Watercrest Park is a small townhome community on Annleeken Drive in Smyrna, Tennessee 37167, in Rutherford County. It sits just minutes from Sam Ridley Parkway, the main shopping and dining corridor in town, so groceries, restaurants, and everyday errands stay close.

Sam Ridley Parkway also runs straight to I-24, which is what makes this location work for commuters. Downtown Nashville is roughly 30 minutes away outside of rush hour, Murfreesboro is about 20 minutes south, and the Nissan plant is a short drive across town.

Because the community is built along one street, it stays quiet. Traffic inside Watercrest Park is mostly residents and guests, and the guest parking areas keep driveways and the street clear.

The Homes

Watercrest Park is made up of two-story townhomes built from 2021 through 2024. The recent closed sales were all 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath plans between 1,876 and 1,891 square feet, and the move-in ready units currently marketed run about 1,956 square feet.

The floor plan is the draw. The primary suite is on the main level, the living room has a vaulted ceiling, and upstairs you get two more bedrooms, a Jack and Jill bath, and a loft or bonus room with a large closet and extra attic storage.

The newest phase came with quartz counters, tiled kitchen backsplashes, soft-close cabinets and drawers, LVP flooring, and a one-car attached garage. Most units are partial brick with vinyl siding. The 2021 unit at 303 Annleeken is all brick with a two-car garage, which gives buyers a slightly different option within the same community.

Every closed sale also went under its original list price by about $10,000, which tells buyers there is room to negotiate.

The biggest price drivers are unit position (end units sell higher than center units), the build year, and how much the seller contributes toward closing costs or rate buydowns.

When was Watercrest Park built?

Recorded sales show homes built from 2021 through 2024. The final phase was marketed as new construction, and two of those units closed in February 2025 after the builder described it as the last opportunity in the community. A small number of 2023 units have been offered as move-in ready since then.

What is the HOA fee in Watercrest Park and what does it cover?

The HOA fee is $150 per quarter, which works out to $600 per year. It covers grounds maintenance, so owners get a maintenance-free yard. The community also has a playground, benches, and guest parking.

What schools serve Watercrest Park?

Watercrest Park is zoned to Rutherford County Schools: David Youree Elementary, Smyrna Middle School, and Smyrna High School. School zones can change, so confirm assignments with Rutherford County Schools before you buy.

How big is the Watercrest Park community?

Watercrest Park is a small townhome community built along a single street, Annleeken Drive, off the Sam Ridley Parkway corridor. With only a few resales and builder units coming up each year, inventory is thin, and a good unit can be under contract before most buyers notice it.

What are the townhomes like in Watercrest Park?

The recent sales are two-story townhomes with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths in roughly 1,876 to 1,891 square feet. The primary suite is on the main level, the living room has a vaulted ceiling, and upstairs you get two bedrooms plus a loft or bonus room. Newer units have quartz counters, tiled backsplashes, soft-close cabinets, LVP flooring, and a one-car attached garage. One 2021 unit is all brick with a two-car garage.

Is Watercrest Park a good fit for first-time buyers and Nashville commuters?

Yes, for many of them. At a $355,000 median you get 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and close to 1,900 square feet with a main-level primary suite, which is hard to match in newer Smyrna single-family homes. Sam Ridley Parkway puts I-24 a few minutes away, and the $600 annual HOA handles yard work, which suits buyers who work long hours or commute to Nashville.

How does Patrick Higgins approach buying in Watercrest Park?

Patrick starts with the numbers. Every closed sale in the data went under its original list price by roughly $10,000, and active units have been offering $5,000 to $10,000 toward buyer closing costs or rate buydowns. He also prices unit position: the end unit at 100 Annleeken sold for $9,900 more than the center unit at 102 Annleeken with the same 1,891 square feet. As a six-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent, he negotiates concessions and price together so buyers do not leave money on the table.

Working with Patrick as your buyer’s agent gives you access to both at no additional cost to you.

What is my Watercrest Park home worth in today’s market?

Automated estimates struggle here.
