Bonterra

Bonterra is an intimate luxury single-family community in Franklin, Tennessee, built by Partners in Building. The smaller scale is part of the appeal here — rather than a sprawling subdivision, Bonterra reads as a tight collection of luxury single-family homes, including floor plans such as the Alexandra. We tour Franklin and Williamson County new construction constantly and represent buyers in these communities at little or no cost to you, so the notes below are meant to help you decide whether Bonterra belongs on your shortlist and what to confirm before you commit.

The builder and the homes

Bonterra is built by Partners in Building. The product is luxury single-family, with floor plans like the Alexandra among those offered in the community. Because this is an intimate community rather than a high-volume one, the lineup of available plans can be limited and can change as homes sell, so any single plan is best treated as a starting point rather than the full picture.

We do not have published bedroom and bath counts, square footage ranges, lot dimensions, or a standard feature list to quote you for Bonterra, and we would rather tell you that plainly than invent details. When you are ready, we will pull the current plans, the homesites still available, and exactly what is included in the base price versus priced as an upgrade — straight from the source — so you are working from live information rather than an aggregator snapshot.

Amenities and day-to-day living

We do not have a confirmed list of shared amenities published for Bonterra, so we are not going to invent one. The character of the community is its intimate luxury scale and the custom homes themselves rather than a long roster of common facilities. If specific amenities matter to you — a pool, trails, a clubhouse, a gated entry, or anything else — let us know and we will confirm what does and does not exist on site, plus how any common areas are maintained and funded.

Location and your real commute

Bonterra is in Franklin, which sits in the southern Williamson County corridor that many Middle Tennessee buyers shop. Rather than quote you a drive time we cannot stand behind, the honest move is this: pin the exact homesite or model address, then map your real route to work, school drop-off, the airport, or wherever you actually go — and clock it yourself at your real departure time. Morning and evening traffic can change a commute meaningfully, so a midday test drive rarely tells the whole story. We are glad to send the precise location so you can run that test.

Who it fits

Bonterra tends to fit a buyer who wants a luxury single-family home in Franklin and likes the idea of a smaller, intimate community over a large subdivision. It suits someone who wants that kind of home, along with the cost and upkeep that come with new construction at this tier. If you prefer a different footprint, a more amenity-rich community, or a different price tier, we can line Bonterra up against other Franklin and Williamson County new-construction options so the comparison is apples to apples.

What to verify before you buy here

• Current pricing. New-construction pricing, phases, and availability move fast, so rather than quote a number we cannot stand behind, we will pull the live figures for the specific home you are considering.
• HOA dues and what they cover. Confirm the amount, the billing cycle, and exactly what the dues fund — common areas and any services.
• Lot specifics. Get the actual lot size, dimensions, orientation, grade, and any easements or setbacks for the homesite you like.
• Builder warranty and standard-versus-upgrade. Confirm the Partners in Building warranty terms and which finishes are included in the base price versus priced as upgrades.
• Construction timeline. Ask for the realistic completion or move-in window for the specific home, plus what happens if it shifts.
• Your real commute. Map and drive your actual routes from the exact address at the times you would really travel.

Where Bonterra sits and what's actually nearby

Bonterra sits at the intersection of Peytonsville-Trinity Road and Meeks Road in south Franklin, in southern Williamson County (Redfin, Homes.com listing data, as of 2026-06). Multiple third-party listing sources put the drive to Berry Farms' shopping and dining at roughly 10 minutes and to Historic Downtown Franklin's Main Street at roughly 15 minutes, with access toward Nashville via I-65 and I-840 (as of 2026-06). Treat those as someone else's estimate, not a promise about your commute — the honest version is still to map the exact homesite address and drive it yourself, at the time of day you'd actually be leaving, before you decide how the location fits your life.

The lots: what makes Bonterra different from a typical subdivision

Bonterra is planned around 37 total homesites, and multiple listing sources describe every lot as a minimum of one acre, with a 20-foot side setback required on each home (nashvillehome.guru, Homes.com, as of 2026-06). That combination — acre-plus lots with wide side yards — is a meaningfully different feel from most new-construction communities in Williamson County, where lots are frequently a fraction of an acre. If genuine space between homes matters to you, that's worth confirming lot-by-lot, since position on a ridge, grade, and tree cover can vary even within a single community.

HOA dues and what they do (and don't) cover

Third-party sources report Bonterra's HOA dues at roughly $300 per month, covering common-area maintenance, road upkeep, and shared infrastructure — with no clubhouse or community pool included (as of 2026-06). We have not independently verified that figure with the HOA or management company, so treat it as a starting point rather than a locked-in number. Before you write an offer, get the current due, the billing cycle, the reserve-fund status, and a copy of the CC&Rs directly — dues and covenants can change as a community finishes building out.

Recent price and size range (dated, sourced, not a forecast)

Aggregator data pulled from closed and active MLS listings shows Bonterra homes ranging roughly 4,084 to 5,193 square feet, with 4 to 5 bedrooms and 4.5 to 5.5 baths, built mostly in 2024-2025 (nashvillehome.guru, as of 2026-06, rolling 12 months). Reported closed sales over that window ranged from about $2.18 million to $2.79 million with a reported median near $2.45 million, and reported price per square foot ran roughly $472 to $569. We're passing those along as a snapshot of what has already happened, not a prediction — we can't tell you what a home in Bonterra will be worth next year, and neither can anyone else. Pull a current comp set for the specific homesite or resale you're considering before you rely on any number, including this one.

How homes have been moving

The same aggregator snapshot noted a wide spread in how quickly homes found buyers — some reported selling essentially the day they were listed, while others sat on the market for over four months before going under contract (nashvillehome.guru, as of 2026-06). That spread is a reminder that days-on-market at this price point can depend heavily on the individual lot, orientation, and finish level, not just the community name. Ask for the current days-on-market for comparable homes before you assume a quick sale — or a slow one.

Schools assigned to Bonterra

Multiple listing sources report Bonterra is zoned to Arrington Elementary, Fred J. Page Middle, and Fred J. Page High, all part of Williamson County Schools (as of 2026-06). We're not going to characterize how those schools rank or perform — school assignments and ratings change, and this is exactly the kind of judgment call we'd rather you make from primary sources. Pull the current GreatSchools.org profile and the Tennessee Department of Education report card for each school, and confirm the zoning hasn't shifted for the specific address you're considering, since attendance lines can be redrawn.

Buying resale inside Bonterra, not just from the builder

Because homes in Bonterra started closing in 2024, the community now has both builder-direct opportunities on remaining homesites and a small resale market of homes that have already changed hands at least once. That matters for you as a buyer: a resale purchase moves at a normal closing timeline instead of a construction schedule, but it also means you're evaluating someone else's finish choices, upgrades, and maintenance history rather than picking your own. We can pull whichever mix of resale listings and remaining builder homesites is currently live and walk you through the tradeoffs of each path.

Frequently asked questions about Bonterra

How many homes will Bonterra have when it's finished? Multiple sources describe the community as planned for 37 total homesites (nashvillehome.guru, Homes.com, as of 2026-06) — we'll confirm the current build-out count and how many remain available before you tour.

Is there a model home? Listing data points to a Partners in Building model home on Bonterra Drive reported at roughly 4,381 square feet with 4 bedrooms and 4.5 baths (as of 2026-06); model homes and their availability for touring change, so we confirm the current schedule before you drive out.

Is Bonterra gated or does it have shared amenities like a pool? Sources describe the HOA as covering common-area and road maintenance without a clubhouse or pool (as of 2026-06); we'll confirm current gate status and any amenities directly rather than assume.

Can I still customize a home in Bonterra, or is it all resale at this point? As of 2026-06, sources describe homesites still being built out with the opportunity to work directly with Partners in Building on structural and design decisions before construction begins; that window narrows as remaining lots sell, so confirm current availability before you plan around a custom build.
