Crestview (Legacy & Ridge Series)

Crestview (Legacy & Ridge Series) at a glance

Crestview is a single-family new-construction community by Meritage Homes in Hermitage, in eastern Davidson County, with a sales presence on Leesa Ann Lane. It is an actively-selling, established neighborhood rather than a brand-new launch — Meritage has recorded 71 closed sales here over the trailing 12 months, so a real street grid, finished homes, and lived-in blocks already exist alongside the homes still being built. At the time of writing, 12 homes are available, including 6 that are move-in ready.

The community is organized into two product lines that sit side by side: the Ridge Series, with smaller, more attainably-priced plans, and the Legacy Series, with larger floor plans. Together they cover a wide range of sizes, from roughly 1,420 to 2,758 square feet, and 3 to 5 bedrooms. Because the price band and home sizes span a broad spectrum, Crestview tends to draw a mix of buyers — those entering new construction at the Ridge price point and those wanting more room in a Legacy plan — many of them relocating to the Nashville area and drawn to a location under 30 minutes from downtown.

Who builds in Crestview (Legacy & Ridge Series)

Crestview is built by Meritage Homes, a national homebuilder with an active Nashville-area presence. Meritage is the single builder across the community, which keeps construction standards, the buying process, and the included-features list consistent from one home to the next.

Meritage offers Crestview in two named series so buyers can choose by size and budget. The Ridge Series spans roughly 1,420 to 2,018 square feet and starts from $403,190, with five floor plans. The Legacy Series spans roughly 1,835 to 2,758 square feet and starts from $469,170, with six floor plans. Because both series come from the same builder within one community, it's straightforward to compare a larger Ridge plan against an entry Legacy plan where the sizes overlap — something we're happy to walk through with you side by side.

Homes & floor plans

Crestview is all single-family homes. Between the two series there are eleven floor plans in total — five in the Ridge Series and six in the Legacy Series — ranging from about 1,420 to 2,758 square feet and offering 3 to 5 bedrooms depending on the plan and series.

• Ridge Series: approximately 1,420–2,018 sq ft, from $403,190, with 5 floor plans
• Legacy Series: approximately 1,835–2,758 sq ft, from $469,170, with 6 floor plans
• Bedroom range across the community: 3 to 5 bedrooms

Meritage homes here come with a practical set of included features rather than a long upgrade list to negotiate: high-speed internet, a fully sodded yard, a refrigerator, a washer and dryer, and blinds throughout. Lot sizes are not specified in the public sources we reviewed, so we confirm lot dimensions directly with the builder for any specific homesite. For exact specifications, elevations, and current standard-versus-optional features on each plan, the Meritage Homes official Crestview Ridge Series and Legacy Series pages are the primary source, and we can pull the live plan details for any home you're considering.

Amenities & community life

What sets the day-to-day experience here is largely inside the homes themselves. Each home is delivered with high-speed internet, a fully sodded yard, kitchen refrigerator, washer and dryer, and blinds already installed — meaning you can move in and be functional without a long list of first-week purchases. Because Crestview is a maturing community with dozens of homes already closed and occupied, the streets and landscaping are established rather than under early-phase construction throughout.

Public sources we reviewed do not list specific shared amenities such as a pool or clubhouse for Crestview, so we don't claim any here. If amenities, an HOA, or shared common areas apply, we confirm those details with the builder before you write an offer.

Location, access & schools

Crestview sits in Hermitage, on the east side of Davidson County, less than 30 minutes from downtown Nashville. The Hermitage area offers everyday convenience along the Old Hickory Boulevard and Lebanon Pike corridors, with quick access toward I-40 for commutes east toward Lebanon or west into the city and the airport area. Homes are located along streets including Leesa Ann Lane and Flora Grove; we can confirm the current model and sales-office address with the builder.

Crestview is served by Metro Nashville Public Schools. The zoned schools are Tulip Grove Elementary, DuPont Tyler Middle School, and McGavock High School. School zoning can change, so we always recommend confirming current attendance boundaries with the district for a specific address before you buy.

What to verify before you buy

New-construction details move quickly, so treat the figures on this page as a starting point and let us confirm the current specifics with Meritage before you write an offer.

• Current pricing and any builder incentives — list prices change as inventory and phases move
• Which homes are available right now, and which are move-in ready versus to-be-built
• The exact lot and homesite (lot sizes weren't specified in public sources)
• Whether an HOA applies, and if so the current dues and what they cover
• The specific floor plan, included features, and any optional upgrades on a given home
• Current school attendance zoning for the specific address

We pull live numbers and availability directly so you're comparing accurate, current information rather than a snapshot that may have shifted.

Bathrooms, HOA & carrying costs

Bathroom counts across the eleven Ridge and Legacy floor plans generally run from 2 to 3 full baths, scaling up with square footage — published Meritage floor-plan sheets show smaller Ridge plans with 2 baths and larger Legacy plans with 3. Whether Crestview carries a mandatory HOA, and what any dues cover, isn't something we'll publish a number on that we can't independently verify — it's exactly the kind of detail that can shift between phases of a single community. We pull the current HOA status, dues, and covenants directly from Meritage's sales team and the recorded plat before you write an offer.

On property taxes: Crestview is in Davidson County, which for the 2025 tax year set a General Services District rate of $2.782 per $100 of assessed value and an Urban Services District rate of $2.814 per $100 of assessed value, per the Nashville-Davidson County Property Assessor (padctn.org). Hermitage addresses are typically taxed at the General Services District rate rather than the higher urban-core rate, but we verify the applicable rate for the exact parcel with the Assessor's office before closing.

Commute specifics & nearby points of interest

Hermitage sits roughly 15 miles east of downtown Nashville, with Interstate 40 as the fastest route in and out. Independent mapping sources put a typical drive from the Hermitage area into downtown at around 20-21 minutes outside of peak traffic, and Nashville International Airport (BNA) is closer still — roughly a 13-15 minute drive via I-40 west, which is a real advantage for buyers relocating from out of state or who travel frequently. Day to day, Old Hickory Boulevard and Lebanon Pike (US-70N) are the two corridors connecting Crestview to Hermitage's everyday shopping and restaurants, while I-40 handles the longer commute west into Nashville or east toward Mt. Juliet, Lebanon, and I-840.

History buffs will recognize the neighborhood name: Andrew Jackson's Hermitage, the 1,000-plus-acre estate of the seventh U.S. president, sits a short drive away at 4580 Rachels Lane and remains a working historic site and museum. Percy Priest Lake anchors the eastern edge of the broader 37076 ZIP code for boating and lake access, and TriStar Summit Medical Center in Hermitage is the closest full-service hospital. Additional big-box shopping is available toward Providence Marketplace in nearby Mt. Juliet. We're happy to map out the specific stores, parks, and services closest to any homesite you're considering.

37076 market context for investors

Crestview sits inside the 37076 Hermitage ZIP code, which recorded 741 home sales over a recent trailing 12-month period with a median sale price of $420,000 across all property types ($444,000 for single-family homes specifically), according to local market data compiled by Nashville Home Guru (accessed 2026-07). Of those, 195 were new-construction sales, reflecting several active new-home communities in the ZIP beyond Crestview — including Beazer Homes' Tulip Hills townhomes and Century Communities/HND Realty's age-restricted Parkhaven. We can't predict where prices go from here, but we're glad to pull the most current comparable sales and active new-construction pricing before you make an offer.

• Rental comparables and rent demand if you're evaluating a Crestview home as an investment property — we can pull recent comps, but we can't predict future rents or resale values
• Flood zone and drainage information for the specific lot, given the community's location within the broader Percy Priest Lake watershed
• Applicable Davidson County property tax rate for the exact parcel (General Services District vs. Urban Services District) with the Assessor's office
• Whether the specific floor plan and series (Ridge vs. Legacy) fits an owner-occupant or rental strategy, since bedroom counts and finish levels differ between the two lines

Frequently asked questions

• Is Crestview a brand-new community or already established? Meritage has recorded 71 closed sales here over a recent trailing 12-month period, so it's an active, maturing community with existing homes and neighbors alongside ongoing construction, not a from-scratch launch.

• What schools serve Crestview? Schools are assigned by address; public sources reference Tulip Grove Elementary, DuPont Tyler Middle, and McGavock High (Metro Nashville Public Schools).
