TWO NEW UP-AND-COMING CONDO DEVELOPMENTS IN FRANKLIN TN

While 2011 was a challenging year in real estate, there were positive signs of growth. A couple of bright spots in our own Williamson County backyard are two new Franklin TN condo developments. Gateway Village and Grant Park are both mixing residential, retail and office space, creating a complete living experience for homeowners.

According to Realtracs/MLS, Camden Gardens within Gateway Village had 20 sales, more than any other condo development in Williamson County, TN in 2011. After a few years, it seems like this development has found its footing and is beginning to establish itself as its own center of activity. Priced in the $200,000s, these are spacious new units with 1500 to just over 2,000 square feet.

The success of restaurants Mack and Kate’s and Sopapilla’s has helped bring people to Gateway where they discover a blossoming planned community. On Franklin Road and Moore’s Lane, Gateway is located in Cool Springs, while also being a hill line removed from the mall and I-65. As its name implies, it is positioned to be a northern entry point to the city of Franklin.

With a dozen sales (Realtracs/MLS) in 2011, Grant Park is another success story in Franklin. From the people who brought you Westhaven, the planned community experts at Southern Land Company have set their sights on the new area off of McEwen, between Cool Springs and 96 East. Grant Park is located within the larger mixed-use McEwen Town Center and is walking distance to Whole Foods, Brick Top’s, and Brixx’s.

Like other Southern Land developments, this is upscale, gated community with upgrades and amenities such as a club house, pool, and fitness center. Starting in the $300,000s and going into the lower $400,000s this is a great opportunity to get in on established communities in the new growth area of Franklin. (At this writing, Grant Park is currently offering free upgrades on several units).
