Princeton Hills

It’s hard to imagine that nearly 150 years ago, the land which now boasts grand estates and new homes in the Brentwood TN and Franklin TN area, hosted several fierce battles of the Civil War. The historical landmarks scattered throughout the area often go unnoticed. Take, for instance, the Murry Lane entrance to the prestigious Princeton Hills neighborhood.

The entry to Princeton Hills on Murray Lane in Brentwood TN depicts the a skirmish of the Battle of Nashville, during the winter of 1864. The resulting defeat of the second largest Confederate force, the Army of Tennessee, proved to be a significant victory for the Union forces.

Today, the area between Granny White and Franklin Road is home to the luxurious Princeton Hills neighborhood. With homes ranging from $1 million to nearly $4 million. The neighborhood located near the Concord road exit of I-65, and within walking distance of Brentwood High and Brentwood Middle Schools.

Featured Homes include 717 Princeton Hills Drive, and 5178 Colleton Way.  For more information, Visit www.homesbydoyle.com
