Living in Country Hills, Hendersonville, TN: A Golf-Course Neighborhood Guide

Country Hills at a Glance

Country Hills is a golf-course subdivision in Hendersonville, Tennessee (ZIP 37075), in Sumner County, roughly 20–25 minutes north of downtown Nashville. Unlike a single-phase, edge-of-town master plan, it was built out gradually — sources place its development era from about 1990 to 2021 — which is why you'll see homes of different vintages, sizes, and styles wrapped around the fairways rather than one uniform streetscape.

The defining feature is the golf course itself: the neighborhood is organized around roughly 110 golf-course lots along the City of Hendersonville–owned Country Hills Golf Course. Streets include Country Hills Drive, Spy Glass Way, Golfview Drive, and Crestwood Court. A distinct but adjacent development, Masters Glenn (also spelled 'Masters Glen'), sits on the same golf club with its own street, Masters Way, and a slightly more attainable, smaller-home profile.

Homes and Current Price Bands

Homes in Country Hills are single-family, custom-built residences ranging from roughly 2,671 to 6,955 sq ft, with 3–6 bedrooms and 3–6 bathrooms. Listings commonly note hardwood floors, granite countertops, and golf-course or pond views. Because the neighborhood filled in over three decades, you'll find a genuine spread of home ages and sizes rather than a single builder's product line.

On pricing, 2026 active listings in Country Hills run roughly $542,500 to $1,150,000 (one aggregator cites a current range of $654,000–$1,150,000), with a median sale price near $631,000 and about $217 per square foot. Vacant golf lots have listed in the $199,900–$270,000 range for buyers who want to build. A representative active listing that corroborates the specifics: 111 Country Hills Dr (recorded as 'Country Hills Sec 1') — $729,900, 3 bed / 3.5 bath, 3,300 sq ft, built 2016, on a 0.28-acre lot, with a $300/year HOA fee.

Masters Glenn, the adjacent section on the same golf club, skews smaller and somewhat more attainable. Its early-2026 snapshot showed about 4 active listings around $542,500–$564,900 (average near $554,325), averaging 3.5 bed / 2.4 bath and about 2,610 sq ft (roughly $214/sq ft) — though a separate source showed a January 2026 average nearer $651,100, a reminder that with only a handful of listings, a single high or low sale swings the 'average' sharply. One example, 100 Masters Way, is a 4 bed / 4 bath, 2,615 sq ft home on a 0.52-acre lot, showing that some Masters Way lots run larger than the interior golf lots.

Community, Lots, and HOA

Lot sizes vary by section. Interior and fairway golf lots tend to be modest — 111 Country Hills Dr is 0.28 acre, and a referenced Hole #4 golf lot runs about 0.31 acre — while the average lot along Country Hills Drive is closer to 0.62 acre. Golf-course lots are positioned along the fairways, with holes #3, #4, #5, and #7 referenced in listings. In the Masters Glenn section, lots like the 0.52-acre parcel at 100 Masters Way point to some larger homesites.

The HOA is notably low: dues are approximately $300 to $350 per YEAR (annual, not monthly), and the 111 Country Hills Dr listing confirms a $300/year fee. Public sources do not detail exactly what the HOA covers beyond common/association obligations, so buyers should request the current HOA documents and budget during due diligence.

The Golf Course

The neighborhood is built around Country Hills Golf Course, an 18-hole PUBLIC / municipal course owned by the City of Hendersonville at 1501 Saundersville Road, Hendersonville, TN 37075 and managed by Raskin Co. (615-824-1100). This is worth underlining because at least one real-estate marketing page described it as 'private' — but the City of Hendersonville facilities site, GolfPass, the PGA, GolfNow, and the Tennessee Golf Association all list it as a public, city-owned course. It offers a banquet room for events.

Course specs: 18 holes, par 70, about 6,174 yards from the championship tees, with a rating of 71.8 and slope of 123. It opened in 1990 and was designed by Leon Howard; it's characterized by narrow fairways and elevation changes. Practice facilities include a driving range, putting green, and bunker area, with green fees starting around $36. For a golf-oriented buyer, living on a walkable, affordable public course is the neighborhood's core appeal.

Location and Commute

Country Hills and Masters Glenn sit about 20–25 minutes north of downtown Nashville — marketing sources cite roughly 22 miles northeast of downtown and about 25 miles from Nashville International Airport. Access is convenient to the SR-386 (Vietnam Veterans Blvd) on-ramp, and the community is near The Streets of Indian Lake shopping and dining corridor.

Country Hills sits within an established cluster of Hendersonville neighborhoods rather than an isolated development. Nearby and adjacent subdivisions include Crest at Country Hills, Ivy Pointe, Masters Glen at Country Hills, Millstone, Saundersville Station, Stonecrest, Wynbrooke, and Wyncrest.

Schools

Country Hills is served by Sumner County Schools. Two zonings are consistent across sources: Station Camp Middle School and Station Camp High School. The elementary assignment is genuinely mixed in public sources — one source assigns Country Hills to Jack Anderson Elementary, while another assigns the Masters Glenn section to Station Camp Elementary. Sumner County zoning can split by street or section and changes over time, so the specific elementary school must be confirmed per address.

An Honest Buyer's Read

Where Country Hills tends to make sense: buyers who want a golf-course setting without a steep club obligation. The HOA is unusually low for a golf community (about $300–$350/year), and because the course is public and municipal, you're not on the hook for a mandatory private-club membership to live on the fairway. The custom, built-out character means more architectural variety and mature landscaping than a brand-new subdivision, and the location gives quick SR-386 access toward Nashville plus the Indian Lake retail corridor nearby.

Trade-offs to weigh honestly: this is an established community, so homes vary widely in age and updates — a 1990s home and a 2016 build can sit on the same street, so inspection and comparison matter. Interior golf lots are on the smaller side (roughly a quarter to a third of an acre), so if acreage is a priority, focus on the larger-lot streets or the Masters Glenn section. And because there are relatively few active listings at any given time (especially in Masters Glenn), 'average' price figures move a lot month to month — always confirm against a live MLS pull. Living on a public course also means public play traffic along the fairway-facing lots, which some buyers love and others prefer to avoid.

How to decide: get clear on your must-haves — golf frontage vs. yard size, move-in-ready vs. a home you'll update, and budget band (the sub-$600Ks of Masters Glenn vs. the $700K–$1.15M range in the broader neighborhood). Then verify the per-address school zoning and the current HOA scope before you write an offer.
