Barton Hills

Barton Hills is a single-family new-construction neighborhood in Spring Hill, Tennessee, planned for 256 homesites and now selling in its third phase. It pairs included home features with a compact amenity package built around an open-air pavilion and pickleball, on the south end of the Williamson County market. We tour communities like this constantly, and we represent buyers in new construction at little or no cost to you — so we can walk you through the floor plans, the homesite options, and the build process from first visit to closing.

The Builder and the Homes

Barton Hills is built by Century Communities. The neighborhood is all single-family, with four floor plans ranging from roughly 1,952 to 2,641 square feet and configurations spanning 3 to 5 bedrooms and 2 to 3 bathrooms. Move-in-ready homes are available alongside to-be-built options, so depending on what is on the ground when you visit, you may be able to choose a finished home or start fresh with a plan you select.

Across the plans, the homes lean into open-concept living. Standard and featured details include gas cooking in every home, open-concept main-floor layouts, owner's suites, covered patios, and 2-bay garages standard. Select plans add upstairs lofts and additional guest rooms for households that want flexible space. Because builders regularly adjust which features are included versus optional, treat any specific finish as something to confirm on the current plan and price sheet — we can pull that for you.

Amenities and Day-to-Day Living

Barton Hills keeps its amenity package focused rather than sprawling. The community offers walking trails, an open-air pavilion, pickleball courts, a playground, and a community gathering lawn. The pavilion and gathering lawn give residents shared gathering space, while the pickleball courts and trails add recreation close to home. The amenity footprint here is more compact than a larger resort-style amenity center, which means less shared infrastructure to maintain. If amenity dues or what they cover matter to your budget, that is worth confirming live, since HOA structures vary and can change as a community completes.

Location and Commute

Barton Hills sits in Spring Hill, on the southern edge of the broader Nashville metro and Williamson County corridor. Spring Hill draws buyers who want newer construction with access south toward Columbia and Maury County and north toward the Cool Springs/Franklin employment and shopping corridor.

Rather than relying on a generic mileage estimate, clock the drive yourself at your real departure time. Commute times along the I-65 and US-31 corridors vary meaningfully by time of day, so plug in your actual work address and the hour you would actually leave, then drive it on a typical weekday. That test tells you far more than any number we could put on a page — and we are happy to talk through what we have seen in the area.

Who It Fits

Barton Hills tends to fit buyers looking for a newer single-family home in Spring Hill, with included features like gas cooking and a covered patio already baked in. The 3-to-5-bedroom range and select-plan lofts give room for buyers who want a flexible second story, while the open main-floor living and owner's suites suit those who prioritize a single-level main floor.

The amenity mix — trails, pavilion, pickleball, playground, and a gathering lawn — leans toward buyers who want walkable shared spaces and light recreation close to home. If a pool or expansive clubhouse is a must-have, this community's package is intentionally more compact, so it is worth weighing what amenities matter most to you and confirming the current list live.

What to Verify Before You Buy Here

• Current pricing — new-construction pricing and from-prices move fast, so we pull live numbers and any current incentives before you commit rather than relying on a figure on a page.
• HOA dues and exactly what they cover — confirm the amount, the cadence, and which amenities and services are included.
• Lot specifics — homesite dimensions, orientation, premiums, and which lots remain in the current selling phase.
• Builder warranty and included-versus-upgrade features — get the written warranty terms and a clear line between standard finishes and options that add cost.
• Construction timeline — estimated completion for to-be-built homes, or availability dates on move-in-ready inventory.
• Your real commute — drive it yourself at your actual departure time before deciding.

Floor Plans, Sales Office, and Distances

Century Communities markets Barton Hills with several named floor plans rather than just a square-footage range: the Harper (the entry plan at roughly 1,952 square feet), plus the Woodruff, Calderwood, Chastain, and Harding plans running up into the 2,600-square-foot range, per the builder's site and NewHomeSource. Each plan carries its own bedroom count, garage configuration, and optional upgrades, and which plans are actually available to select shifts as phases sell through — ask us for the current plan book for whatever is open today. The sales office and model are at 332 Granville Way, Spring Hill, TN 37174 (615-682-4234), with hours listed as Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday 10am-6pm and Wednesday/Sunday 1pm-6pm — call ahead, since builder hours shift. Century Communities' own marketing places the community roughly 20 miles south of downtown Franklin and roughly 40 miles from downtown Nashville; those are straight-line marketing distances, not drive times, so verify your actual route as noted below.

An Important Location Correction: Confirm the County

Spring Hill straddles two counties, and Barton Hills is a case where that matters. A City of Spring Hill planning record for "Barton Hills Subdivision Phase 1B" identifies the development's location as Spring Hill, Maury County, Tennessee — not Williamson County. Builder and aggregator marketing pages for the community don't always spell out the county, so don't assume based on the Spring Hill mailing address alone. That same county question follows through to schools: we don't characterize school quality, but builder- and aggregator-listed school-zoning references for this address point to the Maury County Schools zoning office rather than Williamson County Schools. Before you write an offer, confirm directly which county a specific homesite sits in and which elementary, middle, and high school it's assigned to — that determines your property tax rate, your closing-table paperwork, and your school zone, and we can pull the parcel-level confirmation for any lot you're considering.

Nearby Shopping, Dining, and Employment

Century Communities' marketing for Barton Hills highlights The Crossings of Spring Hill as the nearby shopping center, anchored by a Super Target, along with HomeGoods and Marshalls, plus named dining options including BoomBozz Craft Pizza & Taphouse, Martin's Bar-B-Que Joint, Tito's Mexican Restaurant, LongHorn Steakhouse, and Jonathan's Grille. Confirm current hours and that a given location is still open before you plan around it, since retail centers in fast-growing corridors change tenants. On the employment side, Spring Hill's largest named employer is General Motors' Spring Hill manufacturing complex at 100 Saturn Parkway, which includes GM's assembly operations and the Ultium Cells battery plant on the same site — a useful fixed point to route your actual commute from if you're relocating for work there or weighing a reverse commute against Franklin/Cool Springs.

Property Tax and HOA Dues: What to Verify

If Barton Hills sits in Maury County, as the Spring Hill planning record above indicates, Maury County's certified property tax rate for fiscal year 2025-2026 was set at $0.739 per $100 of assessed value under county ordinance; Tennessee assesses residential property at 25% of appraised value, so the effective rate is a fraction of that headline number, and any city taxes inside Spring Hill's municipal limits are added on top. We can't predict where tax rates go next — pull the current combined city-and-county rate and this parcel's assessed value from the Maury County Assessor and City of Spring Hill before you budget. Separately, we were not able to find a publicly listed HOA due amount for Barton Hills from Century Communities or the major aggregators as of this writing, which is common while a community is still in active phases and the HOA hasn't yet transitioned from builder to homeowner control. Don't assume a number — get the current dues, billing cadence, and exactly what they cover (trails, pavilion, pickleball courts, common-area landscaping) in writing before you're under contract.
