Winston Place

Winston Place is a Smith Douglas Homes single-family community in Gallatin, planned for 68 homes and built around a simple, practical mix — ranch plans for buyers who want everything on one level and two-story plans for the ones who need the extra room. At 68 homes it's a contained, walkable-scale neighborhood rather than a sprawling master-planned development, which is its own kind of appeal. This is written the way we'd talk it through before you drove up to see it — the local read, not the brochure.

Where it sits

Gallatin is the county seat of Sumner County, on the northeast side of the Nashville metro. Winston Place is near Wedgewood Drive and Highway 109. The honest commute advice is the same one we give every buyer looking this far north of the city: the mileage and the 5:30 drive aren't the same number. Drive your actual route at your actual hour before you commit, not at midday when the road is empty — and we'll pull realistic drive times for your commute first.

What you're buying into is a Gallatin address — a real Sumner County town with its own historic downtown square, with Old Hickory Lake forming much of the county's southern edge and a north-metro location that keeps Nashville within reach. For a lot of buyers, Sumner is where the math works: square footage and new-build value at a step below the closer-in suburbs.

The homes here

Smith Douglas Homes builds the single-family homes at Winston Place — ranch and two-story plans. The record doesn't publish specific square footage, bedroom counts, or lot dimensions, so rather than guess at numbers, the right move is to get the floor-plan specs for the exact home you're considering directly from the builder, and we'll pull them with you. What the community does carry is the kind of detail that shapes daily life more than a brochure stat: sidewalks and walking-trail access, so it's a neighborhood you can actually move around on foot.

• Single-family ranch and two-story plans
• Sidewalks
• Walking-trail access

On pricing: homes here start from the high $300s as of 2026 — that's a builder-published figure, so confirm it's current before you count on it. A published 'from' number is a starting point tied to a specific base plan and lot, not a quote on the home you'll actually want once options are in. For current pricing and what's available right now, call 615-265-1000 and we'll get you the live picture.

Who it fits

The ranch-and-two-story mix is the tell on who this community fits. The single-level ranch plans suit a buyer who wants no stairs — a first home, a right-size move, anyone who'd rather keep living on one floor. The two-story plans cover a household that wants more room to spread out. The sidewalks and walking-trail access point to a buyer who values being able to walk the neighborhood, and the Gallatin setting fits someone who wants a town address on the north side of the metro with the historic square and Old Hickory Lake in the broader picture.

What to verify before you buy here

A few things worth confirming in writing before you're emotionally committed to a specific home:

• Current price and availability — the 'from the high $300s' figure is builder-published and a starting point, not a quote on a specific home; confirm what's actually available and at what number.
• Floor-plan specs for your home — since square footage, bedroom counts, and lot sizes aren't published in the record, get the exact plan's specs and the lot dimensions in writing.
• What's standard versus an upgrade — confirm which features are included in the base price and which were optioned in, so you're comparing homes like to like.
• Whether there's an HOA, what it covers, and what it costs — the record doesn't detail HOA structure or dues, so get that confirmed rather than assuming.
• School zoning for the specific address — confirm current assignments directly with Sumner County Schools, since zoning is set by address and can change.
• Builder warranty terms and the new-construction inspection window — you can and should have an independent inspection on a new home; build it into your timeline.

None of this is second-guessing the builder — it's about you having every number and term confirmed for your address before you write the offer, which is exactly the part we handle for our buyers.

The address and the drive

Winston Place sits at 1000 Wedgewood Drive, at the intersection of Wedgewood Drive and Highway 109, in Gallatin. From I-65 in Nashville, the builder's own directions run TN-386 East toward Gallatin/Hendersonville for about 15 miles, then Long Hollow Pike (TN-174) for a mile, then TN-109 south to Wedgewood Drive — call it roughly 30 miles from downtown Nashville to this corner, per Smith Douglas Homes' site (accessed 2026-07). That's the map number. Drive it yourself at 7:45 a.m. and again at 5:15 p.m. before you commit — a 30-mile description on a highway corridor that's actively under construction (more below) can run very differently at rush hour than at midday.

Floor plans in the record

Third-party new-home listing aggregators show Smith Douglas Homes offering multiple named plans at Winston Place, including The Langford, The Braselton II, The Buford II, The Caldwell, The Manchester II, and The Harrington, ranging roughly 1,740 to 2,565 square feet with base prices from the $370,000s to $390,000s as listed (NewHomeSource/Jome plan pages, accessed 2026-07). Treat these plan names, specs, and base prices as a starting reference, not a live inventory sheet — builders rotate which plans are active in a given section, and a listing aggregator can lag the builder's own release schedule. Get the current plan list and specs directly from the sales office or from us before you fall in love with a floor plan that may not be the one available on the lot you want.

What's changing nearby

This stretch of Highway 109 is one of the more active development corridors in Sumner County right now, which cuts both ways for a buyer — it usually means rising demand and more nearby amenities over time, and it also means construction noise and traffic pattern changes while it's underway. A few things worth knowing, each independently verifiable and none guaranteed to land on the timeline described. Highway 109 corridor improvements: TDOT has been widening sections of SR-109 between Gallatin and Portland in phases for several years, part of a roughly $51 million, 35-mile corridor project (TDOT project records, accessed 2026-07); confirm the current phase and any active lane closures near Wedgewood Drive before you assume today's drive time holds. Rezoning activity near Wedgewood Drive: on July 15, 2025, Gallatin's City Council approved on first reading a rezoning of about 10 acres near Wedgewood Drive and Highway 109 from single-family to mixed-use, to allow a townhome development — a change from an expected 19 single-family lots to as many as 72 townhomes, and one that drew neighborhood objections at the hearing (Gallatin City Council record via CitizenPortal.ai, first-reading vote 5-2, dated July 15, 2025); first-reading approval is not final, so confirm the current zoning and site status for any specific parcel near Winston Place before you assume the area will look the way it does today. Longer-range, a large mixed-use project (marketed as Nexus Tennessee) has been in planning since at least 2023 on roughly 650+ acres near the Highway 109/Red River Road intersection in the same corridor, with single-family and active-adult sections eventually built by D.R. Horton and David Weekley Homes among others, and a stated multi-year buildout (Kolter Land developer materials, dated 2023); multi-year buildout plans in Middle Tennessee commonly shift, so we'll confirm current status before you count on it changing your commute or your amenities.

HOA and amenities — what's confirmed, what isn't

The builder's community page and the listing aggregators we checked confirm sidewalks on both sides of the street and walking-trail access as the built-in amenities at Winston Place — no clubhouse, pool, or other shared recreation is listed anywhere in the record we reviewed. None of the sources we checked publish an HOA fee amount or what an HOA (if one exists) covers for this community. That's a real gap, not an oversight on our part — get the HOA documents, the fee, and what it covers in writing from the builder or the listing agent before you're under contract, and we'll help you read them.

Questions we hear about Winston Place

Is Winston Place still selling, or close to sold out? Third-party listing sites showed only a handful of homes actively available as of mid-2026 out of the roughly 68 homesites planned for the community per those same listings, which typically signals a community moving toward its final sections — but inventory changes fast in an active community. Call 615-265-1000 and we'll get you the current count before you drive up.

What school will my kids attend? Schools are assigned by address, not by community name, and assignments can change. Look up the current zoning for the specific address directly with Sumner County Schools or the state's report-card tool at tn.gov, and we're glad to pull it with you rather than guess.

Will the road construction on Highway 109 affect my commute? Likely at times, since phased widening projects on this corridor have run for years — but the affected segment and the completion date shift, so ask us for the current TDOT phase near Wedgewood Drive before you assume anything about your drive time.

Is Gallatin a good long-term value? We don't make price predictions for any Middle Tennessee community, including this one — nobody can promise future appreciation, and we're not going to pretend otherwise. What we can do is show you dated comparables and how similar Sumner County new-construction communities have actually traded, so you're deciding on real numbers instead of a guess.
