OAK HILL

Nashville dwellers can find a slice of calm in the suburb of Oak Hill, where picturesque woodland meets stately country homes.

Oak Hill lies on the southside of Nashville, and while it’s part of the metro area, it’s mostly formed of natural landscapes. The landscape of the Radnor Lake State Park forms swathes of the neighborhood and there are mature trees and open expanses throughout.

A former farming community with pre-Civil War roots, Oak Hill’s rich rural and natural heritage has been well-preserved for generations while its development has been nature friendly. It is uniquely residential and is quieter compared with other tony Nashville suburbs. 

Notable for its prestigious houses, it’s a top spot among affluent locals, including celebrities and the governor of Tennessee.
