Williamson County · Middle Tennessee
Living in Arrington
Arrington is an unincorporated community in eastern Williamson County, zip code 37014, gathered around the crossing of Wilson Pike and Murfreesboro Road about thirty road miles from downtown Nashville. Most people know it for Arrington Vineyards, and that is fair. What they miss is that a real castle sits a few minutes away, that the village was called Petersburg until 1858, and that a gated neighborhood of more than 420 homes grew up around a chapel built in 1815.

- Castle Gwynn and the Tennessee Renaissance Festival, which fills the grounds every weekend in May
- Kings’ Chapel, built in 1815 and reconstructed on its original site in 2008, with a gated neighborhood of more than 420 homes around it
- Arrington Elementary at 6280 Cox Road, which opened for the 2023 to 2024 school year
- Three historic congregations founded between 1852 and 1882: Bellview Cumberland Presbyterian, Hopewell A.M.E. and Patton’s Chapel A.M.E.
- Working farms alongside the estate lots, including Hatcher Family Dairy and Delvin Farms a few minutes south
- No town government, and therefore no city property tax
- I-840 running south of the community, which is how you reach I-65 and I-24 without driving through Franklin
The housing stock
Old farmhouses and working acreage with two decades of luxury construction layered over them, most of the new volume inside gated neighborhoods like Kings’ Chapel. RealtyTrac put the median sale price for zip 37014 at $1.3 million in July 2026, down 5.87 percent year over year, with 141 homes on the market, up about 25 percent from a year earlier. Read those two numbers together rather than separately: prices eased while choice widened, which is the friendliest that combination has looked here in a while. It is still a market where a handful of very large sales move the median, so ask me for the comparable set on the specific kind of property you want rather than leaning on a zip code average.
Getting around
About 30 driving miles to downtown Nashville, roughly 40 minutes without traffic. There is no interstate frontage in the village itself. You take Murfreesboro Road or Wilson Pike out to I-840 south of here, then pick up I-65 or I-24. Drive it at the hour you would actually be driving it before you commit, because the first few miles are two-lane and they set the pace.
Things to do in Arrington
Places worth knowing before you decide whether you want to live here.
Arrington Vineyards
6211 Patton Road. Ninety-five acres with sixteen under vine, five tasting rooms and shaded picnic grounds. Live music on weekends April through November, Food Truck Fridays May through October, trivia on Wednesdays. It opened July 1, 2007, with Kix Brooks of Brooks and Dunn as a founding owner and John Russell joining as a partner in 2008. Hours shift with the season, so check before you drive out.
Tennessee Renaissance Festival at Castle Gwynn
2135 Newcastle Road. Every Saturday and Sunday in May plus Memorial Day, with the medieval town of Covington Glen built at the foot of an actual castle. Jousting, music and an artisan market.
Kings’ Chapel
Built in 1815 and reconstructed on its original site in 2008, now used by LifePoint Church. The gated neighborhood that carries its name grew up around it and runs to more than 420 homes.
Arrington Elementary School
6280 Cox Road. Williamson County Schools opened it for the 2023 to 2024 school year, which is why older zoning maps of this area are out of date.
The Arrington historical marker
In front of the Arrington Volunteer Fire Department on Murfreesboro Road, put up in 1999 by the Williamson County Historical Society. It records that the settlement was called Petersburg until the post office arrived in 1858 and the village took the name of the creek.
Hatcher Family Dairy
6545 Arno Road in College Grove, a few minutes south. Robotic milking, farm tours and a dairy store, plus two farm stays on the property.
Delvin Farms
6361 Cox Road, the same road as Arrington Elementary. More than fifty varieties of vegetables grown without pesticides or herbicides, a CSA running May through December, and a farm store open Tuesday through Saturday, 10 to 5, in season.
The Grove and Troubadour Golf and Field Club
Two private club communities a few minutes south in College Grove, at 6200 Wildings Boulevard and 6257 Patton Road. The Grove hosted LIV Golf Nashville in 2024.
Checked against each business as of August 18, 2026. Nashville loses restaurants faster than most cities, so if something here has closed since, tell me and I’ll get it corrected.
Schools
Williamson County Schools
Look up an address with the district →
Arrington is served by Williamson County Schools, kindergarten through twelfth grade. Franklin Special School District does not reach here: its boundaries were frozen in 1986 and cover only part of the City of Franklin. Arrington Elementary at 6280 Cox Road opened for the 2023 to 2024 school year, so zoning in this part of the county was redrawn recently and any map older than that is unreliable. Zoning is assigned by address, so confirm the specific address with the district.
I publish district and school zoning as published fact and nothing more. No ratings, no rankings, no comparisons. School zones are set by the district, assigned by address rather than by subdivision or city name, and they change. Confirm any address with the district itself, and evaluate the schools yourself against what matters to your family.
What a buyer needs to know here
Three things decide whether Arrington works for you. First, the tax layer is simple: this is unincorporated, so there is no city rate at all, only the Williamson County rate of $1.30 per hundred of assessed value following the 2025 reappraisal. Second, on acreage the money is in things photographs do not show: septic capacity and where the field lines run, well versus utility water, access easements, and what the land next door is zoned to become. On a large parcel out here those four answers are worth more than any finish in the house. Third, understand what you are buying into on the calendar. The Renaissance Festival runs every weekend in May and the vineyard draws crowds most weekends from spring through fall, which is charming if you like it and a genuine consideration if your driveway is on Patton Road or Newcastle Road. One more practical note: a 37014 mailing address stretches well past the historic village, so the address on the listing does not by itself tell you which roads, schools or neighbors come with it. That is worth pinning down before you fall in love with a photograph.
Common questions
Is there a city property tax in Arrington?
No. Arrington is unincorporated, so there is no municipal layer at all. You pay the Williamson County rate of $1.30 per hundred of assessed value and nothing more. Anyone quoting you a rate from before the county’s 2025 reappraisal is quoting the wrong one.
Which schools serve Arrington?
Williamson County Schools, kindergarten through twelfth grade. Arrington Elementary opened at 6280 Cox Road for the 2023 to 2024 school year, which redrew zoning in this part of the county, so treat any older map as out of date. Zoning is by address, and the district publishes the lookup, so confirm the specific address rather than the subdivision name.
What is actually in Arrington besides the vineyard?
Castle Gwynn and the Tennessee Renaissance Festival every weekend in May, Kings’ Chapel from 1815 with its gated neighborhood around it, three congregations founded between 1852 and 1882, the 1999 historical marker at the volunteer fire department, and working farms including Hatcher Family Dairy and Delvin Farms just south. The Grove and Troubadour are minutes away in College Grove. It is a short list on purpose. That is the appeal.
