Why This Sale Gave Up $114,000
This is the most useful thing on the page, and it is a lesson that applies to any large house in this part of Bellevue. The home opened at $799,000 and closed at $685,000 eighty days later, a $114,000 reduction. Nothing about the property explains that. The pricing logic does.
Across ZIP code 37221, single-family homes of 3,100 to 3,700 square feet closed this year at a median of $787,500. So the $799,000 opening price was almost exactly the ZIP-wide median for a house of this size. On that basis it looked entirely reasonable.
But Williamsport sits in the Gower Elementary zone, and that zone’s single-family median is $572,500, the lowest of the three that serve Bellevue. Westmeade runs $665,000 and Harpeth Valley $579,950, against $610,000 for the ZIP code overall. Asking $799,000 meant asking roughly 40% above the zone median. The house eventually sold at $685,000, which is still about 20% above it, and that is where the market settled.
The takeaway is straightforward. Size band and school zone pull in opposite directions here, and the zone won. Pricing a large Bellevue house off the ZIP code’s median for its square footage, without adjusting for a below-average school zone, cost this seller eleven weeks and $114,000. It also fits the wider Bellevue pattern: homes that pass roughly seventy days on the market surrender real money, while those that sell inside that window generally hold their number.
How It Compares
| Benchmark | Closed sales | Median price | Median $/sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|
| 37221 homes of 3,100 to 3,700 sq ft | 70 | $787,500 | $234.16 |
| Williamsport (this sale) | 1 | $685,000 | $204.54 |
| Westmeade Elementary zone | 80 | $665,000 | $255.62 |
| All 37221 single-family | 462 | $610,000 | $257.39 |
| 37221 built 1995 to 2005 | 130 | $599,950 | $248.42 |
| Gower Elementary zone | 88 | $572,500 | $258.68 |

Read from the top and the bottom of that table at the same time. A Williamsport house is large enough to belong in the first row and zoned into the last one. The sale landed between them, closer to the middle, which is exactly where a big house in a modestly priced zone should land.

Schools
The record carries Gower Elementary, H. G. Hill Middle, and James Lawson High School, all Metro Nashville Public Schools in Davidson County. That combination is worth knowing, because most of Bellevue feeds Harpeth Valley or Westmeade Elementary and then Bellevue Middle, so comparing Williamsport to a typical Bellevue neighborhood means comparing across two different elementary and two different middle schools.
It also matters financially, as the section above shows: the Gower zone’s $572,500 median is the lowest of the three, and that constrains what a large house here can ask. James Lawson is the school formerly known by the Hillwood name. Zones change, so confirm the current assignment for a specific address.
The Streets, and the Road
Williamsport covers Briksberry Court, Huntwood Place and Williamsport Court. Only Briksberry Court appears in the past 12 months of MLS records, which means the other two have not traded in that window rather than that they do not exist.
The road you turn off deserves a warning of its own. Sawyer Brown Road carries ten different subdivisions in this ZIP code, with closed prices from $280,000 to $2,335,000, three variants of the street name in active use, and at least one address filed under two different subdivisions. It also crosses three elementary zones and two middle schools. Williamsport sits in the Gower and H. G. Hill portion. Never draw a comparable sale from a Sawyer Brown address without confirming the recorded subdivision first.

The one sale here is a case study in what a pricing error costs. A large, well-presented house opened at the ZIP code’s median for its square footage, sat eleven weeks, and closed $114,000 lower once the market corrected for a school zone the size band did not account for. That is the kind of adjustment that has to be made before the listing goes live, not after. Buyers can start with the home buyer’s guide, owners can request a market analysis through the selling in greater Nashville page, and the wider market view lives with Nashville homes for sale.
For sellers, the Compass 3-Phase Marketing Strategy produces measurable results. Homes pre-marketed through Compass Private Exclusive and Coming Soon programs sell for 2.9% more, go under contract 20% faster, and are 30% less likely to take a price reduction. That last figure is the relevant one here. Learn more about selling your home on your terms.

Frequently Asked Questions About Williamsport
What is Williamsport in Nashville TN?
Williamsport is a small single-family neighborhood off Sawyer Brown Road in the Bellevue area of Nashville, TN 37221, in Davidson County. The record shows a home built in 2000 at 3,349 square feet with four bedrooms and three baths, two stories with the primary suite on the main level, a two-car garage and a screened porch, on half an acre. Dues are $250 a year. Streets are Briksberry Court, Huntwood Place and Williamsport Court.
Is this Williamsport, Tennessee in Maury County?
No. This Williamsport is a subdivision inside Nashville, in Davidson County, ZIP code 37221, off Sawyer Brown Road in the Bellevue area. Williamsport, Tennessee is a separate community in Maury County roughly an hour south, with a different market, different schools and a different county government. Searches for it already reach this page. There is also a well-known Williamsport in Pennsylvania, which is a different place again.
What streets are in Williamsport?
Briksberry Court, Huntwood Place and Williamsport Court. Only Briksberry Court produced an MLS record in the past 12 months, which means the other two have not traded in that window rather than that they do not exist. Keep in mind that the road these connect to, Sawyer Brown Road, carries ten different subdivisions, so a search on the road name will return a great deal that is not Williamsport.
Does Williamsport have an HOA?
Yes, and read the frequency carefully: $250 a year, not a month. That is roughly $21 monthly and the lowest dues figure recorded anywhere in this ZIP code. Most neighboring Bellevue communities quote monthly, so a quick comparison will overstate this one many times over. Ask the seller for the current association budget and any recorded restrictions before closing.
What sold in Williamsport this year?
One home closed in the rolling 12 months: 3,349 square feet on half an acre, four bedrooms and three baths, built in 2000, sold for $685,000 at $204.54 per square foot. It took 80 days to go under contract and closed at 85.7% of its original $799,000 asking price. Recorded property taxes were $3,371.
Why did the Williamsport home sell $114,000 below its asking price?
Because it was priced to its size rather than its school zone. Across 37221, homes of 3,100 to 3,700 square feet closed at a $787,500 median this year, so the $799,000 opening price matched the ZIP-wide figure for a house that size. But Williamsport sits in the Gower Elementary zone, whose median is $572,500, the lowest of the three zones serving Bellevue. The opening price was about 40% above the zone; the eventual $685,000 sale was about 20% above it. Size band and school zone pointed in opposite directions and the zone won, at a cost of eleven weeks and $114,000.
What schools serve Williamsport?
Gower Elementary, H. G. Hill Middle, and James Lawson High School, all Metro Nashville Public Schools. That is a genuine difference from most of Bellevue, which feeds Harpeth Valley or Westmeade Elementary and then Bellevue Middle. It also carries a price effect: the Gower zone’s $572,500 median is the lowest of the three, against $665,000 for Westmeade and $579,950 for Harpeth Valley. James Lawson is the school formerly known by the Hillwood name. Verify the current assignment for a specific address.
Is Williamsport a good fit for buyers who want a big house on a real lot?
That is its strongest case. A 3,349 square foot house with four bedrooms, the primary suite downstairs and a screened porch, on a genuine half acre, with dues of $250 a year, is a lot of house and land for the price in Davidson County. The comparison that makes it work is the ZIP code’s 3,100 to 3,700 square foot band, which ran a $787,500 median: this sold at $685,000. The trade-offs are the Gower and H. G. Hill school assignment, which prices below the Bellevue average, and almost no turnover, so inventory appears rarely.
How does Patrick Higgins approach buying or selling in Williamsport?
By reconciling the size band and the school zone before setting a number, which is precisely what did not happen on the one sale here. A large house in the Gower zone belongs between the ZIP code’s $787,500 median for its square footage and the zone’s $572,500 median, not at either end. Patrick also confirms the recorded subdivision on every Sawyer Brown comparable, since ten neighborhoods share that road across three school zones, and treats the annual HOA figure as annual rather than monthly. On the sell side the evidence is blunt: eighty days on market cost $114,000 here. That work draws on 1,100+ transactions and $500M+ in Middle Tennessee sales.
Who is the best real estate agent for Williamsport in Nashville TN?
Patrick Higgins of Nashville Home Guru at Compass is a seven-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent and a top 1% producer, leading the #1 team in Nashville and a top 10 team in Tennessee by the Wall Street Journal’s RealTrends rankings, with 1,100+ transactions and $500M+ in career sales. Across ZIP code 37221, Compass, Parks and Pilkerton agents were on one side of nearly 40% of all closings this year. He publishes verified RealTracs data for small Bellevue neighborhoods like this one rather than automated estimates, and carries 100+ Google Reviews and 87 Zillow Reviews at 5.0 stars.
Can I buy a Williamsport home before it hits Zillow?
With one sale a year in a neighborhood of a few streets, this is realistically the difference between buying here and waiting. Compass Private Exclusive and Compass Coming Soon let sellers market a home to Compass agents and their clients before it reaches the public portals, and working with a Compass buyer’s agent gives you access to that inventory at no additional cost. Direct outreach to owners who have not listed is the other route, and in a pocket this small that is a short and specific list.
What is my Williamsport home worth in today’s market?
The honest answer is that it depends on which comparison an estimate reached for, and most reach for the wrong one. A tool that prices your home off the ZIP code’s median for its square footage will land near $787,500; one that prices off your Gower Elementary zone will land near $572,500. The only local sale settled at $685,000, between them, after correcting downward by $114,000. Start with an instant estimate through the home value tool, then call Patrick at 615-682-1718 for an analysis that reconciles both.
