Westhaven in Franklin, Tennessee
Located just 2 miles west of downtown Historic Franklin on New Hwy 96, Westhaven is a “Traditional Neighborhood Development (which) represents a return to small-town living and a reawakening of the American hometown spirit.” Modeled after the historic town of Franklin, and situated on 1,543 acres, when completed, Westhaven will consist of five neighborhoods. Housing choices range from starter homes to high-end residences. This housing variety allows parents to live near their children, gives people the opportunity to move up and down without leaving their community and create diverse and vibrant places for a larger percentage of Franklin's residents.
Parks and playgrounds, bike paths, hiking and walking trails, a 12-acre lake and an outdoor amphitheatre will provide abundant opportunities for recreation and relaxation while greenways, wetlands, stately trees and a natural habitat area ensure preservation of the land's natural beauty.
Westhaven will include a center with a lakeside main street, shops, cafés, restaurants, businesses and civic centers within a short walk from most every home. A planned elementary school, day care, open-air amphitheatre and places of worship will also be part of Westhaven's community.
Westhaven is devoted to conservation and in sustaining the surrounding natural beauty Williamson County has to offer. To maintain this, Westhaven has allocated 50 percent of its land (768 acres) to open green space.

I Can Sell Your Home in Westhaven
Tori Stamps provides you with a guaranteed Market Analysis and an Absorption Rate Study prepared specifically for your home. While some real estate agents will consider every home within a 5 mile radius sold in the past 12 months, I prefer to provide a more accurate analysis. With the real estate market fluctuating rapidly in Williamson County, narrowing the search to 3 months will give you a much better idea of what quality homes like your own are selling for NOW, not a year ago. I also prefer to initially look solely at Westhaven listings (to ascertain your competition), and then widen the search to include comparable homes in surrounding communities.
In order to make your home stand out above all others, we utilize a professional photographer. Our extensive marketing allows us to sell homes in less time than most real estate listings. Your home will be given its own independent website, as well as placed on numerous local websites including Franklin-Estates.com, as well as over 30 nationally syndicated websites including Realtor.com, Homes.com. Instead of just placing your home as “one of many” – we also feature your home in several prime local print publications.
