809 Swinging Bridge Rd

A study in contrast on Swinging Bridge Road
The Realtracs record for 809 Swinging Bridge Rd, in the River Landing area of Old Hickory, reads: four bedrooms, four full baths and a half, in 1,607 square feet — an unusually deep bath count for the footprint. Built by May as a fee build, it reached completion on February 20, 2026, and the client took it to market.
Outside it is calm — pale blue board-and-batten with cedar porch rails, photographed in winter with the yard freshly seeded under straw and a new privacy fence run along the drive. Completion photography, not a staged spring shoot.
Design notes
Inside, the palette flips dark: a wood-slat feature wall set into deep charcoal paint in the living room, black island cabinetry under white quartz with stainless appliances, matte-black plumbing at the undermount island sink, a powder room with a black basin on a brass stand, and a study wrapped in full-height paneling.

What's underneath, before you have to ask.
The build standard behind every May home, 809 Swinging Bridge Rd included — the parts a spec sheet usually leaves out.
Site & construction
- Site-finished white oak flooring on the main living level — sanded and sealed on site for a seamless grain match, not a factory floor with visible seams.
- Solid-core doors and an architectural trim package throughout, not hollow-core doors and builder-grade base and casing.
- One project manager owns the build day to day, tracking framing, trim-out, and CO in BuilderTrend and requesting inspections as each milestone is ready.
- Conditioned storage and a mudroom drop zone sized for how a family actually loads in from the garage, not an afterthought off the laundry room.
Appliance & window package
- Custom cabinetry and a full appliance package specified before the budget locks, not substituted after contract for a cheaper line.
- Windows and doors sized and placed by Native during design, so the light plan is drawn before a wall goes up — not value-engineered after permit.
- Selections are locked before bidding, so what is on the plan is what closes at CO, with no last-minute downgrade.
- A dedicated scullery keeps the working kitchen out of sight while hosting, plumbed and wired for a second dishwasher and prep sink.
Warranty & process
- One point of contact from signed contract through final walkthrough, so you are never chasing three subcontractors for one answer.
- Milestone-based draws tied to framing, trim-out, and CO — payment always follows visible progress, never a calendar.
- Financial terms are formally confirmed by our accounting team before a project record closes, with collections tracked against every milestone.
- 175+ years of combined experience across the build team, with every sub bid checked against an independent internal takeoff before it is approved.
