Forest Park

Forest Park is a new-construction community taking shape on Sandersville Road in Hendersonville, and at the moment it's mostly a story told in city records rather than model homes. The April 7, 2026 Hendersonville Planning Commission agenda shows a Phase 2 preliminary plat alongside a Phase 1, Section 1 final plat — the paperwork stage where a community is being laid out and the first section is getting cleared to build. So here's the honest version: there's real movement and a place on the map. There just isn't much published yet — the builder hasn't been confirmed in the city record — and I'd rather tell you that straight than dress up a coming-soon plat as a finished neighborhood.

Where it sits

The address is 1685 Sandersville Road in Hendersonville, which puts you in Sumner County, directly northeast of Nashville and within reach of Old Hickory Lake's southern shore — the combination of close-in commuting and lakeside town that Hendersonville has built its identity on. Sandersville Road is inside the city, not out on the rural edge, so this is brand-new construction within Hendersonville proper rather than a far-out subdivision you drive into town from. If the exact pocket matters to you — what's walkable, what the drive to your office actually looks like — that's worth pinning down before you fall for a floor plan, and it's the kind of thing we'll drive with you.

The homes here

The builder and owner of record aren't yet confirmed in the city record, and we'll add them here once they're published. Beyond that, the specifics aren't public yet either. Home types, floor plans, square footage, lot sizes, and pricing haven't appeared in the city record, which is normal for a community still moving through platting. As the first section is finalized, the developer typically publishes its plan lineup and a starting price — but until that's actually posted, I won't put numbers in your head that the record can't back up. Confirm the current builder and availability with us.

Who it fits

On what's known today, Forest Park is geared toward buyers who want brand-new construction while staying inside Hendersonville and close to the lake-town lifestyle and the northeast-of-Nashville commute. Early-platting communities also tend to suit people who are comfortable buying into something still being built — choosing a lot and a plan before the streets and neighbors fill in, in exchange for getting in at the start. If that's the kind of timeline you're after, this is exactly the stage to be watching it.

What to verify before you buy here

Because this community is early, the smart moves are mostly about confirming what isn't on paper yet. Put your investor hat on and check these:

• Phasing and build-out timeline — Phase 1, Section 1 is what's being finalized first; ask which lots are in it and when each later phase is expected to deliver.
• Current pricing and availability — none is published in the city record yet, so get the developer's actual starting price and what's releasing, not an estimate.
• Lot details — exact lot, dimensions, grade, drainage, and what backs up to your homesite, since Phase 2 is still preliminary.
• HOA structure and dues — whether there's an association, what it covers, and the budget, before you're committed.
• Builder contract terms — the developer's standard agreement, warranty, what's included versus an upgrade, and any lender or timeline conditions.
• School assignment and any future road or plat changes — confirm the current zoning directly with Sumner County Schools and the city rather than assuming, since boundaries and plans can shift while a community is still platting.
