Nexus South

Nexus South is the gated 55+ active adult village within Nexus Tennessee, an ambitious 655-acre master-planned community in Gallatin developed by Kolter Land. Set in the rolling landscape of Sumner County about 30 miles northeast of downtown Nashville, Nexus South will total 860 single-family homes and paired villas, all built by D.R. Horton under its Freedom Series line, which is designed specifically for main-level, lower-maintenance living with owner's suites on the ground floor. Homes range from roughly 1,402 to 1,884 square feet with 2 to 4 bedrooms and 2 baths, and include paired villas around 1,472 sq ft with attached two-car garages as well as larger single-family plans like the Dover (1,884 sq ft, 3 bed, 2 bath, flex room). Interiors feature quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, upgraded painted cabinets, 9' ceilings, open-concept layouts, walk-in closets, soaking tubs in primary suites, and screened porches or covered patios. Construction leans heavily on fiber cement siding with stone or partial brick accents, and energy-efficient features like tankless water heaters, programmable thermostats, insulated glass, and sealed duct systems are standard rather than optional. The heart of the community is the Freedom Village Amenity Center, a 13-acre recreation facility exclusive to Nexus South residents. The 10,000+ square foot clubhouse houses a main hall with fireplace, lounge, multi-purpose room, full fitness center, yoga and aerobics studio, indoor fireplace, large covered patio, and restrooms. Outside, residents have a combination resort-style/lap pool with beach entry and a large sun deck, eight pickleball courts, two tennis courts, two bocce ball courts, outdoor dining with firepit, a raised garden area, an event lawn, covered breezeway, outdoor picnic area, and walking and biking trails. A full-time lifestyle/activities director coordinates social clubs, classes, and events including pickleball, tennis, swimming, and walking/jogging groups, with more programming rolling out as the community fills in. Because Nexus South sits inside a larger master plan, residents also benefit from extensive internal connectivity — sidewalks throughout, an 8-foot-wide trail system along main throughways, and a 10-foot greenway trail that follows a creek through preservation areas. The broader Nexus plan includes a mixed-use area with future retail and business space, plus a regional business park, meaning more walkable amenities are expected to arrive over time. AT&T fiber internet serves the community and is included in the monthly HOA along with common grounds, lawn and grounds maintenance, and management. Location is a major part of the Nexus South story. Highway 109 runs just west of the gates, giving residents a straight shot to Kroger, Target, Home Depot, and other national retailers within 10 minutes. Old Hickory Lake is minutes away for boating, fishing, and paddling, and downtown Gallatin's historic square offers local restaurants, coffee shops, and boutiques. Long Hollow Golf Course, Country Hills Golf Club, and Tennessee Grasslands Golf and Country Club give golfers multiple nearby options, while Bledsoe Creek State Park and Lock 4 Park deliver hiking, mountain biking, and lakefront recreation. Downtown Nashville and Nashville International Airport are both roughly 40 minutes away, and the Music City Executive Airport in Gallatin provides a closer option for general aviation travel.
