The Mill at McFarlin

The Mill at McFarlin is a large new-construction community taking shape in Nolensville, planned for 444 single-family detached homes spread across nearly 300 acres along Kidd Road, between Baronswood Drive and McFarlin Road. What sets it apart on paper is its scale and its nature-forward layout: roughly 135 acres are dedicated to open space, including about 80 acres of tree preservation, with a full amenity package woven through it. As a brand-new community it is still early, so the details below reflect what has been published so far, and we always pull current numbers before you tour.

The builder and home styles

The Mill at McFarlin is being developed by Beazer Homes, which broke ground on the community. The plan calls for 444 single-family detached homes, with a stated focus on energy efficiency aimed at keeping utility bills lower over time. Published square footage runs from 2,532 to 3,435 square feet, giving a meaningful spread between smaller and larger floor plans within the community.

Bedroom and bathroom counts have not been published yet, so those should be confirmed live as floor plans are released. The community is also being laid out with a mix of lot types: roughly 200 rear-loaded lots, 160 lots that are 80 feet wide, and 80 lots measuring 100 by 150 feet. Because a community this size is built in phases, the specific plans, lot types, and pricing available at any given moment will shift over time, so we verify what is actually open before you visit.

Amenities and day-to-day lifestyle

The amenity package planned for The Mill at McFarlin is built around its open space. Of the nearly 300 acres, about 135 are set aside as open space, including roughly 80 acres of tree preservation, and the community is planned with both natural and paved trails connected by a pedestrian bridge.

Beyond the trail network, the published amenities include a pool, a clubhouse, a fitness area, a pickleball court, dog parks, and playgrounds. As with any new community, amenity timelines often trail home deliveries, so it is worth confirming which amenities are complete and which are still planned at the time you are considering a purchase.

Location and getting around

The Mill at McFarlin sits in Nolensville along Kidd Road, between Baronswood Drive and McFarlin Road. Commute times depend entirely on where you are heading and when you leave, and traffic patterns in this corridor vary throughout the day. Rather than rely on an estimated number, the best move is to clock the drive yourself at your real departure time, on a typical weekday, to wherever you actually commute. We are happy to map out the routes that matter to you so you can test them before you commit.

Who it fits

The Mill at McFarlin is likely to appeal to buyers who want a larger, amenity-rich community where the outdoors is part of daily life. With extensive open space, tree preservation, and a connected trail system with a pedestrian bridge, it leans toward those who value walking and being outside. The pool, clubhouse, fitness area, pickleball court, dog parks, and playgrounds add gathering spaces and recreation right within the community.

On the home side, the 2,532-to-3,435-square-foot range and the variety of lot types, from rear-loaded lots to wider 80-foot and 100-by-150-foot lots, give buyers options at different sizes within the same community. Because Beazer emphasizes energy efficiency here, it may also suit buyers focused on lower long-term operating costs. Whether a specific plan and lot fit your needs is worth working through together against current availability and live pricing.
