Fairington (formerly Storyvale)

Fairington is a master-planned community taking shape at McFarlin and Fly roads in Nolensville, Tennessee. Renamed from Storyvale in January 2025, it is planned across roughly 372 acres for 700 to 735 homes, with a design built around front-porch streets, sidewalks and curated landscaping. A village center, an amenity park and roughly 160 acres of trails and open space are woven through the neighborhood, giving Fairington the feel of a walkable, connected place rather than a single row of houses. We tour new-construction communities like this across Middle Tennessee constantly, so the notes below are meant to help you understand what is planned here and what to confirm directly before you commit.

The builder and the home styles

Fairington is developed by Southern Land Company and built by its in-house builder, SLC Homes. Homebuilding began in 2025, with first sales opening in April 2025 and model homes opening in summer 2025. Because a single developer-builder is shaping the whole community, the streetscape, architecture and landscaping are intended to feel cohesive from one block to the next.

The plan calls for a wide range of housing across the community, from townhomes and live/work residences to single-family homes, luxury single-family homes and estate homes. That mix is reflected in the lot program: alley-loaded lots at 22 to 24 feet for live/work residences, plus 33-, 41- and 46-foot alley-loaded lots, and non-alley lots ranging from 65 to 85 feet wide along with half-acre estate lots. Across the community, roughly 445 units are planned as alley-loaded designs and about 290 as front-loaded designs. Recurring design elements include front porches, sidewalks and curated landscaping. New-construction pricing and available floor plans change quickly, so rather than rely on a figure that may already be out of date, let us pull current numbers for the plan and lot you are considering.

Amenities and day-to-day life

Fairington is planned with roughly 160 acres of parks and open space out of its 372 total acres, laced together by trails. The trail network is planned to connect into the broader Nolensville greenway system, and the everyday hub of the community is intended to be a village center of roughly 15,000 to 15,300 square feet set aside for retail and restaurants.

Beyond the open space, the plan includes a resort-style amenity park with a swimming pool and a fitness center. Land has also been reserved within the community for a future elementary school site, with roughly 11.41 acres donated for that purpose. As with any community still under construction, the order in which amenities open can differ from the homes, so it is worth confirming what is finished, what is funded and what is still planned at the time you tour.

Location and commute

Fairington sits in Nolensville in Williamson County, at the McFarlin and Fly roads area. Drive times in this part of Middle Tennessee swing a lot depending on the hour, so rather than trust an estimate, clock it yourself: punch in your real route to work, school or the places you visit most, and drive it at the actual time of day you would be leaving. That live test tells you far more than any number we could print here. We are happy to talk through how this location lines up with the rest of your week.

Who it fits

Fairington is built around variety, so it tends to suit buyers who want options within one walkable, master-planned setting. The range from townhomes and live/work residences up through single-family, luxury single-family and estate homes means very different floor plans and lot sizes live under the same plan. If a village center, a resort-style amenity park with a pool and fitness center, and miles of trails connecting into the Nolensville greenway system are high on your list, those are central to how this community is designed. Buyers drawn to front porches, sidewalks and curated landscaping, or to a half-acre estate lot at the larger end of the lot program, will find that the community is laid out with those preferences in mind.

What to verify before you buy here

• Current pricing for the specific plan and lot you want — published starting prices move, so confirm today's number live.
• HOA dues, what they cover, and how amenity costs are handled as the village center, pool, fitness center and trails come online.
• Lot specifics — which lot width and orientation you are buying (alley-loaded vs. front-loaded), and the exact dimensions and any premiums.
• Builder warranty terms from SLC Homes, plus a clear line between what is included in the base price and what is an upgrade.
• Construction timeline — your home's projected completion as well as when each planned amenity is expected to open.
• The real commute — drive your actual routes at your actual departure times before you decide.
