Annecy Cottages

Annecy Cottages is a new-construction community in Nolensville, a small town on the eastern side of Williamson County. It is a cottage-style collection of single-family homes built within the larger Annecy neighborhood; ask us to confirm current availability and which homes are selling now. The cottage concept is the defining character here — a single-family home in a more compact, lower-maintenance footprint rather than a sprawling lot. Because we tour new construction across the county constantly and represent buyers in new construction at little or no cost to you, we can walk you through what is currently available in Annecy Cottages and pull the real, current details whenever you are ready to look.

The builder and home styles

Annecy Cottages is a David Weekley Homes community, and the homes here are single-family in a cottage style. David Weekley is a national builder with a long track record in the Middle Tennessee market, and its homes are typically built around two signature programs you will see referenced in the materials for this community: EnergySaver features, the builder's approach to energy efficiency, and LifeDesign features, the builder's framing for livability and how the floor plans are laid out for everyday use.

Beyond the cottage concept and those two programs, the specifics — published pricing, floor plans, square-footage ranges, bedroom and bath counts, lot dimensions, and which finishes are standard versus upgrade — are exactly the kind of details that should be confirmed live rather than assumed. Builder-published pricing and detailed specifications were not confirmed for this page, so rather than quote a number, we would verify the current offering directly with David Weekley. When you are interested, we will put together a side-by-side of what is available right now and walk you through what is included in the base price versus what gets added as an upgrade.

Amenities and day-to-day living

We do not have a confirmed community amenity list for Annecy Cottages, so rather than guess at pools, trails, or common areas, we would find out exactly what is planned and built here and what the HOA maintains. One thing worth understanding in a cottage-style community is the day-to-day maintenance arrangement — cottage collections are often set up so that exterior upkeep like lawn care is handled at the community level, but that varies by community and should be confirmed in the HOA documents. Tell us what matters most to you day to day, and we will get you the specifics in writing for Annecy Cottages and the surrounding Annecy neighborhood.

Location and commute

Nolensville sits on the eastern side of Williamson County, with Nolensville Road and nearby connectors toward Brentwood, Franklin, and the broader Nashville area. Whether that works for your routine depends entirely on where you actually go each day. Rather than trust a generic drive-time estimate, the smartest move is to clock it yourself: plug Annecy Cottages into your map app and run the route to your office, your regular activities, or wherever you head most often — and do it at your real departure time, because traffic at 7:45 a.m. looks nothing like traffic at 11 a.m. We are happy to suggest the routes locals actually use so your test drive is realistic.

Who it fits

Annecy Cottages may be a fit if you specifically want a brand-new David Weekley single-family home in a cottage style and like the idea of a more compact, lower-maintenance footprint within Nolensville's Annecy neighborhood. The cottage format tends to appeal to buyers who want new construction without a large lot to manage. If homes are releasing when you're ready — something we'll confirm live — it can also suit buyers who want to move on a current opportunity rather than wait for a future phase. If you would rather have a larger homesite or a different home type, we can compare Annecy Cottages against other new-construction options nearby. The best way to know if it fits is to see it in person and match it against what you actually need.

What to verify before you buy here

• Live pricing — builder pricing was not confirmed for Annecy Cottages as of June 2026, so confirm the actual numbers with us, and remember new-construction pricing, phases, and incentives change fast.
• HOA dues and what they cover — get the monthly or annual amount in writing along with exactly what is included, especially whether exterior or lawn maintenance is handled at the community level in this cottage collection.
• Lot specifics — dimensions, orientation, slope, drainage, and what sits behind and beside the homesite you are considering.
• Builder warranty and included-versus-upgrade — understand David Weekley Homes' warranty terms and confirm which features, including the EnergySaver and LifeDesign items, are standard in the base price versus paid upgrades.
• Timeline — get a realistic build and completion timeline in writing for the specific home or homesite you are considering, and ask what happens if it slips.
• The real commute — drive your actual routes at the times you will really be on the road before you decide the location works.

The Annecy neighborhood and the wider builder lineup

Annecy Cottages is one collection within the larger Annecy master-planned community in Nolensville, developed by Crown Community Development. Annecy as a whole is built out by multiple builders, not just David Weekley — Drees Homes, The Jones Company, Turnberry Homes, and Celebration Homes all have sections within the neighborhood, alongside David Weekley's cottage collection (Crown Community Development, crowncommunities.com/news/communities/annecy, accessed 2026-07). That means Annecy Cottages buyers share community amenities and an HOA with several other product lines and price points, from David Weekley's cottage-style single-family homes up to larger custom-builder sections elsewhere in the neighborhood — worth knowing if you're comparing what a given price buys across builders in the same community.

David Weekley's cottage homes in Annecy are described in builder and aggregator listings as open-concept, rear-load homes on 55-foot homesites (NewHomeSource / David Weekley Homes community listing, accessed 2026-07). Rear-load means the garage is accessed from an alley or rear lane rather than the front street, which is a common way builders keep front elevations more pedestrian-friendly on a narrower cottage lot — ask us to confirm which specific homesites in the current release are rear-load versus front-load.

What a cottage home here looks like

One recently listed Annecy Cottages home by David Weekley was a 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath, 2-car-garage floor plan at 2,659 square feet, listed at $799,990 (NewHomeSource community listing, accessed 2026-07). Treat that as one example of a built or listed home, not a base price for the community — David Weekley builds multiple floor plans in this collection, including the Plunkett plan, and current base pricing, included features, and available homesites change as the builder releases new inventory. We'll pull the live floor-plan list and current pricing with you before you make a decision.

David Weekley Homes has also run limited-time financing incentives in Annecy, including a builder-advertised rate-buydown or closing-cost incentive said to be worth up to $20,000 in one recent promotion (David Weekley Homes promotional page, accessed 2026-07). Builder incentives like this change frequently and are typically tied to specific move-in-ready or quick-close homes — confirm what, if anything, is currently being offered before you assume a number carries forward to your contract.

Amenities across the Annecy community

These amenities are shared across the broader Annecy neighborhood rather than exclusive to the David Weekley cottage section, based on the developer's and builders' own community descriptions (Crown Community Development; Turnberry Homes community page, both accessed 2026-07). Confirm with us or in the HOA documents exactly which amenities are open to Annecy Cottages residents and which, if any, are phase-specific.

HOA in Annecy

A Redfin listing for a home in the Annecy neighborhood showed an HOA fee of $100 per month covering ground maintenance and recreation facilities (Redfin listing, accessed 2026-07). HOA dues can vary by phase, builder section, and lot type within a large master-planned neighborhood, so get the exact current dues and the full list of what they cover in writing before you go under contract on a specific home in Annecy Cottages.

Development phases and timeline

Annecy has been built out in multiple recorded phases — the Town of Nolensville Planning Commission has taken up items for Annecy Phase 1, Phase 3B, and Phase 3C, including transitioning performance bonds to maintenance bonds as infrastructure work is completed and landscape plan amendments for various phases (Town of Nolensville Planning Commission meeting records, williamsonscene.com, accessed 2026-07). A performance-to-maintenance bond transition generally signals a phase's infrastructure has been substantially completed and accepted by the town — it's a useful marker of how far along a given section of the neighborhood is, though it doesn't tell you which specific homesites within David Weekley's cottage collection are part of which phase. We can help track which phase a specific lot falls in.

Location, schools, and taxes

Annecy sits on the Nolensville side of Williamson County, with developer marketing describing it as roughly 20 miles south of downtown Nashville and close to nearby expressways (Crown Community Development, accessed 2026-07) — confirm the actual mileage and drive time from your own starting point rather than relying on that figure. Schools are assigned by address; pull the current zoned schools and their report cards from GreatSchools.org and the Tennessee Department of Education for the specific home you're considering, since school assignments can change and we don't make quality judgments on schools.

For tax planning, Williamson County's countywide property tax rate and the Town of Nolensville's separate municipal rate both apply to homes in Annecy, and both are set annually — pull the current combined rate from the Williamson County Trustee (williamsonpropertytax.com) or the Town of Nolensville's property tax page before you budget a monthly payment, since municipal rates in particular have been under review in recent Nolensville budget cycles and can change year to year.

Price context — dated, not predictive

As of the sources reviewed in 2026, Annecy overall has included homes priced from roughly the $400,000s up through seven-figure custom builds depending on builder, lot, and finish level, with some sections in the $1.4 to $1.6 million range for larger custom homes (aggregator and builder site listings, accessed 2026-07); the David Weekley cottage collection specifically has shown listed prices around $799,990 for one example home. These are dated snapshots from specific listings, not the community's current price floor or ceiling, and new-construction pricing shifts with every release, incentive, and lot premium. We can't predict where prices go from here — we can only get you the live number for whatever home you're looking at.

Frequently asked questions

Is Annecy Cottages the same as Annecy? Annecy Cottages is David Weekley Homes' single-family cottage collection inside the larger Annecy neighborhood in Nolensville; other builders — Drees Homes, The Jones Company, Turnberry Homes, and Celebration Homes — build other home types and price points elsewhere in the same master-planned community.

What does "rear-load" mean for these homes? It means the garage and driveway are accessed from a rear alley or lane rather than the front street, which is common in cottage-style layouts on narrower homesites and keeps the front of the home more focused on the porch and entry rather than the garage door.

Does the HOA cover lawn care? We have not confirmed whether lawn maintenance is included for David Weekley's cottage section specifically; get this in writing in the HOA documents, since it varies by community and sometimes by builder section within the same neighborhood.

Who is the master developer? Crown Community Development is the master developer behind Annecy; David Weekley Homes is one of several builders constructing homes within it.
