New Construction in Hendersonville’s Kennesaw Farms: The Grove and The Paddock

Yes. Hendersonville’s Kennesaw Farms has new construction in two sections: The Grove (townhomes) and The Paddock (courtyard, bungalow, and villa-style homes). The community sits between Hendersonville and Gallatin, and builder materials place it in Gallatin, Sumner County. The Grove was priced from $339,900 to $389,900 in October 2026 listings.

Are there new construction homes in Hendersonville’s Kennesaw Farms?

Yes. Hendersonville’s Kennesaw Farms has new construction in two sections: The Grove, which is townhomes, and The Paddock, which includes courtyard, bungalow, and villa-style homes. The community sits between Hendersonville and Gallatin, and builder materials place it in Gallatin, Sumner County. A builder listing from October 10, 2026 showed The Grove homes at 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and 1,745+ square feet, priced from $339,900 to $389,900.

Key Takeaways

  • Kennesaw Farms is marketed as a Hendersonville-area community, but the new-home listings place it in Gallatin, Sumner County.
  • The Grove was listed at $339,900 to $389,900 for 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath homes of 1,745+ square feet in an October 10, 2026 builder listing, so confirm today's price with the builder.
  • Recent local market data for Hendersonville shows a median sale price of $539,000 and a median of 33 days on market, which makes The Grove's listed range a different product tier than the typical Hendersonville sale.
  • Energy-efficiency features vary by plan, so get the written spec sheet for the exact home before you count on any specific equipment or rating.
  • New construction still deserves an independent inspection, because a new home can have problems too.

If you've searched for new construction around Hendersonville, you've probably run into Hendersonville’s Kennesaw Farms and wondered what's actually for sale there. I get that question often, and the first thing I clear up is geography, because it affects how you research the property. Then we get into the homes, the numbers, and what to confirm before you sign anything.

What new construction can you buy in Hendersonville’s Kennesaw Farms?

You can find two product families: townhomes in The Grove and a mix of courtyard, bungalow, and villa-style homes in The Paddock. A September 2026 local development report describes the sections that way, so treat it as a guide to what's planned. Which products are actually released and available can change from month to month.

What do we know about The Grove?

The Grove is the section with the clearest published numbers. A Homes.com builder profile for Southeastern Building Corporation listed homes with at least three bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and 1,745+ square feet at $339,900 to $389,900 as of October 10, 2026.

That's a builder and portal listing, not an official price sheet. Lot premiums, upgrades, incentives, and closing-date changes can all move the number you actually pay. I'd treat the range as a starting point for your budget conversation, not the final answer.

What about The Paddock?

The Paddock is described as courtyard, bungalow, and villa-style homes. I don't have a verified price sheet for it, so I won't guess at one. If that style appeals to you, I'll request the current plans and pricing straight from the builder so you're looking at real numbers.

Is Kennesaw Farms in Hendersonville or Gallatin?

It's positioned between the two, and the new-home listings place the community in Gallatin, Sumner County. You'll hear "Hendersonville" because that's where many buyers orient themselves. Confirm the municipality for any specific address, since it determines which offices you'll deal with for services and records.

How does pricing at Hendersonville’s Kennesaw Farms compare to the local market?

The Grove's listed range sits well below the Hendersonville median, but it isn't an apples-to-apples comparison. Recent local market data for Hendersonville shows a median sale price of $539,000, and that figure blends every home type and age across the area.

Hendersonville market measureRecent local market data (trailing ~90 days)
Median sale price$539,000
Median days on market33
Active listings for sale459
New listings (last 30 days)175
Homes sold (last ~90 days)309

Those are area-level figures. An individual home's value depends on its condition, street, build year, and timing, and a new townhome will not behave like the median.

With 459 active listings and a median of 33 days on market, buyers have real choices. That matters when you're deciding between new construction at Hendersonville’s Kennesaw Farms and a resale home nearby.

New build or resale?

The cheapest house isn't always the best value, and that applies in both directions. A resale home may offer a bigger lot or an established setting, while a new build gives you fresh systems and a floor plan nobody else has lived in. I walk my clients through both side by side so the decision rests on what each home costs you and what you get for it.

What should you verify before buying new construction in Kennesaw Farms?

Verify anything you'd be relying on that isn't in writing. For a new build, that means the exact plan's specifications, the real price, the completion timeline, and the ongoing obligations. Marketing copy is a starting point, not a contract.

Energy-efficiency claims

New homes are often described as energy-efficient, and that's a reasonable thing to want. But I won't tell you a Kennesaw Farms plan meets a particular standard or includes specific equipment until the builder puts it in writing for that plan. Ask for the spec sheet covering insulation, HVAC, windows, and appliances. Then compare it against the plan you're actually buying.

Your pre-closing checklist

  • Written price and inclusions: Ask what's standard, what's an upgrade, and whether any lot premium applies.
  • Timeline: Ask for the projected completion date and what happens if it slips.
  • HOA and community details: Ask for dues, rules, and what the fees cover, in writing.
  • Warranty terms: Ask what's covered, for how long, and how to submit a claim.
  • Utilities and services: Confirm the providers for the exact address.
  • Financing: Get your lender's guidance on rate locks and timing, since a build timeline can run longer than a resale closing.

Do you still need an inspection on a brand-new home?

In my experience, yes. A new home isn't a perfect home, and a fresh set of eyes before closing is cheap compared with finding a problem after you've moved in. I'd rather you catch something while the builder is still motivated to fix it.

Who represents you at the builder's sales office?

The sales representative on site works for the builder. Builder policies on buyer-agent representation vary, so I'd talk to me before your first visit and I'll check how the builder handles it. That way your interests are covered from the first walkthrough. After you sign, the sequence of steps looks a lot like what I describe in what happens after you accept an offer in Nashville, though a new build adds construction milestones on top.

Your numbers will depend on the plan, the lot, and your financing. That's where a one-on-one conversation beats any online listing, so bring your questions and I'll help you sort the Hendersonville’s Kennesaw Farms options from the rest of the Sumner County market.
