Poplar Farms
Poplar Farms is a high-volume Meritage Homes community in Franklin offering single-family homes across a wide size range. It is among the most affordable entry points into new construction within Franklin city limits.
Poplar Farms is a new-construction community in Franklin, Tennessee. With an active building pipeline and floor plans that span a wide range of sizes, it gives buyers a chance to get into brand-new construction inside Franklin city limits — a part of Williamson County where new homes are not always easy to find. Pricing moves quickly here, so we pull the current numbers for you rather than working from anything that may already be out of date.
The builder and home styles
Poplar Farms is built by Meritage Homes. The community is made up of single-family homes, and the floor plans span a broad range — from more compact plans up to much larger layouts — so there is meaningful variety in the lineup. Because the size range is so wide, the right plan really depends on what you need; we can pull the current square footages and help you sort through which plans are actively being offered when you are ready to look.
Meritage builds with energy-efficient construction as part of its standard approach. As with any builder, the specifics of what is included as standard versus what is an upgrade can shift between plans and phases, so it is worth confirming the current spec sheet for the exact plan you are considering rather than relying on a general description.
Amenities and day-to-day living
Community amenities at Poplar Farms are not something we'll list here, because the publicly confirmed amenity details are limited and we don't want to put anything in writing that we can't stand behind. If amenities — a pool, trails, common areas, or anything else — matter to your decision, that's exactly the kind of thing we verify directly before you commit. Call us at 615-265-1000 and we'll pull what's actually offered today.
What we can say is that Poplar Farms sits within Franklin, so day-to-day life draws on the broader Franklin area for shopping, dining, parks, and services. The right way to judge fit is to spend time in and around the community at the hours you'd actually be there.
Location and commute
Poplar Farms is located in Franklin, in Williamson County, south of Nashville. Commute times depend heavily on where you're driving to and when you leave, and traffic on the corridors in and out of Franklin varies a lot by time of day. Rather than quote you a number that may not match your reality, the best approach is to clock it yourself: drive the route from the community to your office, school, or wherever you go most often, at your real departure time, on a normal weekday. That's the only commute figure that actually means anything for your day.
Who it fits
Poplar Farms tends to make sense for buyers who want brand-new construction inside Franklin and who value having a wide spread of floor-plan sizes to choose from. The single-family format and the range from smaller plans up to large layouts mean the community can work for a number of different space needs. Because new-construction pricing and availability move quickly, it's smart to confirm what's actually on offer before you build your shortlist around it — and that's exactly the live information we pull for you.
What to verify before you buy here
- Current pricing — new-construction pricing changes fast, so we'll confirm the live starting number for the specific plan and phase you want before you build your shortlist around it.
- HOA dues and what they cover — confirm the monthly or annual amount and exactly which services and amenities, if any, it includes.
- Lot specifics — lot sizes, dimensions, orientation, and which homesites are still available, since these aren't fixed in the public listing data.
- Builder warranty and the included-versus-upgrade list — get the current spec sheet so you know what's standard and what costs extra for your chosen plan.
- Build timeline — current construction and delivery estimates for the phase you're buying into.
- The real commute — drive your actual routes at your actual departure times before you decide.
