Estates at Cantor Farms

Estates at Cantor Farms at a glance

Estates at Cantor Farms is a new-construction community in Spring Hill, Tennessee, set along John Sharp Road in the Maury County portion of the city. It sits directly across from Sharp's Manor, and what sets it apart is land: homesites here run from roughly one acre up to seven-plus acres, giving you noticeably more room than many newer Spring Hill subdivisions. The community is actively selling, with all-brick single-family homes built one at a time on these larger parcels.

Homes here are built by Shaw Home Builders, a Columbia-based builder established in 1989. The emphasis is on all-brick construction, main-level living layouts, generous garages, and high-end finishes as standard. Because of the acreage and the build style, Estates at Cantor Farms tends to draw buyers who want a substantial new home with privacy and space close to Spring Hill's schools and shopping, rather than a tightly packed lot. We tour communities like this constantly, so we can help you understand exactly how Cantor Farms compares to Sharp's Manor and other Spring Hill options before you commit.

Who builds in Estates at Cantor Farms

Estates at Cantor Farms is built by Shaw Home Builders. The company was established in 1989 and is based in Columbia, Tennessee, just south of Spring Hill in Maury County, so this is home turf for them. Their work in this community centers on all-brick, single-family homes with a main-level living emphasis and high-end finishes included as standard rather than as upgrades.

Because Cantor Farms is a single-builder community, the experience is straightforward: one builder, one set of standards, and consistent construction across the homesites. When you're buying new construction, having a buyer's agent who knows the builder and the contract matters, and that's a role we're glad to play for you at little or no cost.

Homes & floor plans

Homes at Estates at Cantor Farms are single-family, all-brick designs built on large homesites ranging from about one acre to seven-plus acres. The community leans into main-level living layouts and includes garages sized for three to five cars, which is a real differentiator for buyers who need space for vehicles, a workshop, or storage.

As a documented reference point, a home at 1589 John Sharp Road sold in May 2026: four bedrooms, four and a half baths, 3,420 square feet, on a seven-plus-acre lot. We share that as a real, verified example of what has been built here, not as a prediction of what your home will cost or measure. Available floor plans, square footages, and elevations are set by Shaw Home Builders and change as homes are built and sold, so the best move is to view the builder's official plan pages and let us pull the current, available inventory and configurations for you.

• Single-family, all-brick construction
• Main-level living layouts available
• 3-5 car garages
• High-end finishes included as standard
• Natural gas and high-speed internet
• Homesites from ~1 acre up to 7+ acres

Amenities & community life

The draw at Estates at Cantor Farms is the land and the home itself rather than shared community facilities. With homesites stretching from one to seven-plus acres, day-to-day life here is defined by space and elbow room, set across from Sharp's Manor along John Sharp Road. Compared to nearby Sharp's Manor, where lots start around an acre, Cantor Farms offers the option of considerably larger parcels.

Homes come equipped with the features buyers tend to ask about up front: all-brick exteriors, natural gas service, high-speed internet, and high-end finishes built in. You get the privacy of acreage while staying close to Spring Hill's schools, shopping, and everyday conveniences.

What to verify before you buy

New construction moves quickly, and the details on Estates at Cantor Farms are set by Shaw Home Builders and the district, not by any third-party listing. Before you write an offer, let us confirm the current facts with you so there are no surprises.

• Current pricing and which specific homes or lots are available right now (we pull live numbers for you)
• The exact homesite size, boundaries, and acreage for the parcel you're considering
• Floor plan, square footage, included finishes, and any options or upgrades
• Whether a homeowners association applies and, if so, its current dues and rules
• Build timeline, phase, and any remaining-lot availability
• The confirmed school attendance zone for that specific address

Commute & drive times from Cantor Farms

Cantor Farms sits on John Sharp Road in the Maury County section of Spring Hill (37174), close to Saturn Parkway (State Route 396), the east-west freeway that runs into town and ends near the GM Spring Hill assembly plant on Beechcroft Road. From this stretch of John Sharp Road, Columbia is about 11 miles away (roughly a 17-minute drive), Franklin is about 13 miles (about 26 minutes), and downtown Nashville is roughly 34-36 miles via I-65, typically 40-45 minutes outside of rush hour and up to 60-70 minutes during peak commute times. Treat these as general reference points, not a guarantee for your specific commute — traffic on I-65 and Saturn Parkway varies significantly by time of day.

A real sale, current tax rate, and what they do (and don't) tell you

The home at 1589 John Sharp Road, referenced earlier as our documented example, sold on May 12, 2026 for $1,566,200 — four bedrooms, four and a half baths, 3,420 square feet, on a lot of seven-plus acres, per Homes.com and public sale records as of that date. That works out to roughly $458 per square foot for that specific home and lot, which is a useful real data point but not a promise: acreage, finish level, and lot premiums vary across Cantor Farms' 1-to-7-acre range, and a different lot or plan will price differently. On the tax side, Maury County's certified property tax rate for fiscal year 2025-2026 is $0.739 per $100 of assessed value, per the City of Spring Hill's tax rate page (Ordinance 25-12) and the Maury County Trustee; Tennessee assesses residential property at 25% of appraised value, and Maury County's last general reappraisal was 2022 on its four-year cycle. We can't predict where future tax rates, reappraisals, or home values will land — we simply give you today's sourced figures so you can budget with real numbers rather than a guess.

Rural-acreage due diligence checklist

Buying on a 1-to-7-acre homesite is a different transaction than buying in a standard subdivision, and a few things are worth verifying that don't come up in a typical new-construction contract. We walk every buyer through these before they sign:

• Water and sewer: confirm in writing whether the specific homesite is served by municipal water/sewer, a shared well, or an individual septic system, and get any septic permit or perc test on file
• Deed restrictions and covenants: large-acreage communities sometimes carry different (or no) restrictive covenants than a standard subdivision — confirm what's recorded before assuming anything about outbuildings or land use on your lot or neighboring lots
• Flood zone and topography: pull the FEMA flood map and a topo/soil reading for the specific parcel, especially on larger, more varied lots
• Naming overlap: Shaw Home Builders markets "Cantor Farms" and "The Estates at Cantor Farms" as two separate community pages on their site — confirm which specific section, phase, and homesite you're being shown
• Survey and boundary lines: on multi-acre parcels, get a current survey rather than relying on a plat or builder rendering for where your usable yard ends

Comparing Shaw Home Builders' other communities

Shaw Home Builders is not a one-community operation, which is useful context if Cantor Farms' pricing or availability doesn't line up with your timeline. As of mid-2026, the builder's active Middle Tennessee communities also include Sharp's Manor (28 homesites directly across John Sharp Road, roughly 1-acre-plus lots, around $400,000 starting price per the builder), Veritas (Spring Hill area), Iron Bridge Place (estate-sized lots near Columbia), and Mt. Olivet Estates (twelve all-brick homes on 2-plus-acre lots near downtown Columbia). If the acreage and price point at Cantor Farms don't fit, one of Shaw's other communities may — and because we track all of them, we can tell you where current inventory and pricing actually stand rather than sending you in circles.

Frequently asked questions

Is Cantor Farms the same as The Estates at Cantor Farms? Shaw Home Builders lists them as two separate community pages, both along John Sharp Road across from Sharp's Manor — confirm with us or the builder which specific phase and homesite you're touring. Is there an HOA? Shaw Home Builders has not published HOA dues or covenant details for Cantor Farms as of this writing; we get that in writing before you commit to a specific homesite. What will my home cost? Builder pricing isn't published, and the one documented sale we reference ($1,566,200 for 3,420 square feet on 7-plus acres, closed May 2026) reflects that specific home and lot, not a baseline for every homesite — we pull current pricing for the exact plan and lot you're considering. Can you predict future value? No — nobody can reliably predict future home values or appreciation, and we won't pretend otherwise; we give you today's verified pricing, tax rates, and comparable sales so you decide on real numbers. How do I check schools for a specific homesite? School zoning is set by Maury County Public Schools and can change — pull the current attendance zone at GreatSchools.org and the Tennessee Department of Education's school report cards, and we'll confirm it with the district for you before you write an offer.
