Westhaven in Franklin, TN is a 1,500-acre Southern Land Company plan inside the city and in Williamson County Schools, with a Kroger, an 18-hole course and five pools inside it. Zillow's typical value for its ZIP, 37064, is $901,467 (September 2026). If that's above your budget, price a Westhaven townhome or condo, and get the HOA dues in writing first, since they aren't published.
You're relocating to Franklin and Westhaven is on your shortlist, and you want to know which home type fits your budget and what owning one costs.
Is Westhaven right for you?
Westhaven fits if
- You want a grocery, golf and pools inside one plan: Westhaven has a Kroger, an 18-hole course and five pools.
- You want a choice of home type inside one plan: single-family, townhomes, condos and a 55+ section.
- You want to be inside the City of Franklin on the $1.566 tax line rather than the FSSD rate.
Look elsewhere if
- You want the Franklin Special School District: look at Downtown Franklin, which sits inside FSSD.
- You want a short run to I-65 and offices: Berry Farms sits at the Peytonsville Road exit.
- You want an older neighborhood with lots of resale stock: Fieldstone Farms has about 2,137 homes from 1987 on.

What it costs to own in Westhaven each year
Prefilled with the typical price used in this guide for Westhaven. Add HOA dues if the home has them: ask the HOA for its current budget. Insurance isn't estimated: get a quote.
Tax year 2026 rates (Williamson County and city 2026 rate tables). Tennessee assesses homes at 25% of appraised value. An estimate, not a tax bill: confirm the jurisdiction on the parcel record and check with the Williamson County Trustee or a CPA.
Homes for sale in Westhaven: which type to buy
Start with the home type, because in Westhaven it sets the price more than the street does. Confirm in writing that a townhome or condo's dues include the Residents' Club and pools. If they do, that's the pick if your budget sits below the 37064 ZIP's typical value of $901,467 (Zillow, September 2026).
| Westhaven home type | What you get | The catch |
|---|---|---|
| Condominium | A shared building, so compare recent sales with the houses | A condo association may bill on top of the master HOA |
| Three-story townhome | Village-style streets; newer ones have elevators | Stairs on units without an elevator |
| Single-family home | Homes from the developer's listed builders | Priced by builder and lot, so ask for recent sales on the street |
| 55+ section | Westhaven Active Adult and the Astor Club | Age-restricted resale, so fewer buyers when you sell |
Zillow has no Westhaven value of its own, so the ZIP figure above is a guide to the band, not a subdivision median.
If you're weighing a townhome here against a house at the same price in an older plan, compare what the dues buy as well as the square footage. Fieldstone Farms gives you two pools and a clubhouse; this plan adds three more pools, an 18-hole course and a Kroger. Neither association publishes its dues, so get both figures in writing and put them side by side before you decide.
Westhaven amenities: pools, golf, trails and the Kroger
Southern Land Company planned about half the land as green space, parks and trails. The rest holds homes, a golf course and a small town center. The list below is the developer's.
The Residents' Club at Westhaven
A 15,000-square-foot clubhouse with a fitness center, a movement studio, an art center and a 37-seat theater. Ask what's included in dues and what's charged per use.
Five pools and the Skube Swim Center in Westhaven
A lap pool, a zero-entry pool, a shallow pool, a slide pool with a 119-foot slide and lazy river, and the Skube Swim Center, a six-lane competition pool. Fieldstone Farms, the big established plan across town, has two.
The golf club and trails at Westhaven
An 18-hole Arthur Hills course with a Golf Performance Center. The developer lists about 9 miles of trails and 20 parks on one page and higher counts on another, so walk them before you rely on either number. Tennis and pickleball courts are on the list too.
The Kroger at Westhaven's Village Center
The Village Center has a Kroger, restaurants, a pub and a bank, so the weekly shop can stay inside the plan. If walking to the store is the point, filter listings by their distance to the Village Center before you look at anything else.
Public elementary school inside Westhaven
A public elementary school was built into the plan. That doesn't settle which school a given home is assigned to: look up the address in the WCS zone finder, since the School Board can redraw zones.
What are the HOA fees in Westhaven?
Southern Land doesn't publish the dues. The only public reference is an offer of two years of dues paid on select new townhomes, so get the number in writing before you offer.
Charges to check on a Westhaven resale certificate
| Charge | Why it matters here |
|---|---|
| Master dues | Every home type pays them; the figure and billing schedule are the baseline |
| Condo or 55+ association fee | Condos and the Active Adult section can bill on top of the master dues |
| Club per-use charges | The theater, studio and drop-in daycare may not all be covered |
| Transfer or capital fee | Due at closing, so it belongs in your cash-to-close figure |
| Dues promotion | The two-years-paid offer is on select new townhomes, so don't assume it on a resale |
Once you have the figure, add it to the cost-to-own tool on this page. Closing-day fees and Tennessee's transfer tax are in the guide to buyer closing costs in Tennessee.
Property tax in Westhaven and Franklin's middle tax line
On a home at the ZIP's $901,467, your 2026 bill is about $3,529, or $294 a month before dues and insurance. That's Franklin's middle line, $1.566 per $100 assessed: inside the city, outside the Franklin Special School District (FSSD), and about $1,500 a year less than the same house on the FSSD side.
It's also the same bill you'd pay at that price in Berry Farms, Ladd Park or Fieldstone Farms, which sit on the same line. So tax won't separate Westhaven from its neighbors; the dues and what's inside the plan will. Use the Williamson County property tax guide for how the bill is built and when it's due.
Williamson County Schools and the Westhaven school line
You're in Williamson County Schools (WCS) here: the plan isn't on FSSD's subdivision list, and a Census check on a Westhaven address returns the county district. Assignment still goes street by street, so the elementary school inside the plan isn't a promise for every home. For how WCS and FSSD compare, see the Franklin schools guide.
New homes and builders in Westhaven
Southern Land is still selling new homes here, so you can choose new or resale inside one plan. Go new and the builder, not the developer, sets the floor plans and the warranty.
Builders selling in Westhaven in 2026
The developer's Homes page lists Ford Classic Homes, Legend Homes, SLC Homes, Stonegate Homes and Zurich Homes, plus a Reserve collection by SLC Homes. SLC Homes, Southern Land's own builder, had built about 870 residences by 2023. Compare builder contracts with the Franklin new construction guide before you sign.
Westhaven or Berry Farms: what decides it
Both put a grocery inside the plan, and on paper they match: both in 37064, both inside the city, both WCS, so the tax line is the same. What decides it is scale and what sits next door.
| Westhaven | Berry Farms | |
|---|---|---|
| Size | About 1,500 acres | About 600 acres |
| Homes planned | About 3,500 | About 1,100 |
| Grocery | Kroger | Publix |
| Golf | 18-hole course | None in the plan |
| Next door | Parks and trails | An office park at an I-65 exit |
Pick Westhaven if you want the bigger amenity set and more choice of home type. Pick Berry Farms near the I-65 interchange if a quick run to the interstate matters more than golf and five pools.
When Westhaven started and how much is left to build
Southern Land Company began selling homes here in 2003. By 2023 the developer counted more than 2,400 households against about 3,500 homes planned, which left roughly 1,100 still to come, so ask what's planned near any street you like. The plan won a National Association of Home Builders Best in American Living Award in 2022. For other plans to set beside it, the Franklin neighborhoods comparison has all 18 in one table.
