Woods Crossing

GALLATIN’S NEW CONSTRUCTION COMMUNITY BY DAVIDSON HOMES

Location and Daily Life

Woods Crossing sits on Woods Ferry Road in Gallatin, about a mile from Old Hickory Lake and the Gallatin Marina. That proximity to the water is one of the features that sets this community apart from most new construction in the 37066 zip code. On weekends, you can be launching a boat or walking the marina in minutes. On weekdays, Highway 386 (Vietnam Veterans Blvd) puts the commute to Nashville at roughly 40 to 55 minutes during peak hours.

The surrounding retail has caught up with this part of Gallatin quickly. A Publix-anchored shopping center opened nearby, downtown Gallatin is a short drive for dining and community events, and Nashville Pike puts additional retail within easy reach. Other new construction communities in this corridor include Kennesaw Farms, Kensington Downs, and Carellton, but Woods Crossing is the only one offering lake-adjacent living with a single-builder product.

The Homes

Every home in Woods Crossing is built by Davidson Homes, one of the Southeast’s fastest-growing private builders. All homes are site-built single-family with fiber cement and hardboard exteriors, partial brick or stone on select elevations, composition shingle roofs, and two-car attached garages. Interiors feature a mix of carpet, tile, and vinyl plank flooring with open-concept layouts. Floor plans range from approximately 1,679 to 2,882 square feet with 3 to 5 bedrooms.

Davidson Homes offers a Design Studio experience, meaning buyers work one-on-one with an in-house designer to select finishes, fixtures, and structural upgrades before construction begins. That level of customization is a real advantage over buying resale. The lineup includes two single-story plans (Prairie at 1,679 sq ft and Cottonwood at 1,841 sq ft) and five two-story plans (Logan at 2,155 sq ft, Willow at 2,340 to 2,496 sq ft, Ash at 2,416 sq ft, Henry at 2,665 sq ft, and the Ridgeport at 2,882 sq ft). The Ridgeport is the best-seller, featuring an owner’s suite on the main level, vaulted ceilings, a gourmet kitchen with large island, dedicated study, and a bonus room upstairs alongside three additional bedrooms.

Based on the 24 closed sales over the past 12 months, the most popular configurations have been the larger two-story plans. Of those 24 closings, 18 were the Ridgeport or similarly sized 2,882-square-foot homes, suggesting that buyers in this community are gravitating toward the most square footage Davidson offers here.

Amenities

Woods Crossing is a newer community, so the amenity package is centered around the location and the lot sizes rather than an on-site clubhouse or pool. The HOA runs $30 to $40 per month and covers grounds maintenance for common areas, keeping the fee burden minimal compared to communities with full resort-style amenities.

The real amenity here is proximity to Old Hickory Lake. The Gallatin Marina and public boat ramps are within minutes, making this an ideal landing spot for buyers who boat, fish, paddleboard, or kayak. A Publix-anchored shopping center sits nearby for daily errands, and downtown Gallatin offers dining, local shops, and events at the Gallatin Civic Center. The Sumner County park system and several community recreation areas are all within easy reach.

Schools

Woods Crossing is zoned for Sumner County Schools. Students attend Guild Elementary (approximately 1.1 miles from the community), Rucker Stewart Middle School, and Gallatin Senior High School (approximately 1.9 miles away). Sumner County Schools is one of the more consistently rated public school systems in the greater Nashville area, and the proximity of these campuses to Woods Crossing is a practical advantage for families with school-age children.

Always verify enrollment eligibility directly with Sumner County Schools, as attendance zone boundaries can shift as new developments come online in this part of Gallatin.

Why Work with Nashville Home Guru?

Davidson Homes has an on-site sales team at Woods Crossing, and they are helpful, but they represent the builder. When you buy new construction without your own agent, you are negotiating against someone whose job is to protect the builder’s margin. Having an experienced buyer’s agent costs you nothing on new construction because the builder pays the commission. Your agent reviews the purchase contract, coordinates an independent inspection, and makes sure you are not leaving money on the table on upgrades, incentives, or lot premiums.

Patrick Higgins, a six-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent, leads the Nashville Home Guru team at Compass. Ranked the #1 team in Nashville and #7 in Tennessee by the Wall Street Journal’s RealTrends, the team has closed 1,100+ transactions and $500M+ in residential sales across Middle Tennessee. With 100+ Google Reviews and 87 Zillow Reviews, the feedback from buyers and sellers across Gallatin and Sumner County speaks for itself.

Compass is the #1 residential real estate brokerage in the United States by sales volume. After merging with Parks Real Estate in 2024, Compass agents represent approximately 1 in 4 homes sold in Tennessee. That gives our buyers access to coming-soon listings, private exclusives, and the largest agent referral network in real estate.

For sellers in this area, the Compass 3-Phase Marketing Strategy delivers 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 experience a price reduction. If you own a home nearby and are considering a move into Woods Crossing or another new construction community, that pre-market advantage can help you maximize the sale of your current property.

Patrick and the Nashville Home Guru team track new construction pricing at the floor-plan level because the cost-per-square-foot varies significantly across Davidson’s lineup.
