Custom home builder in Franklin
Southern charm, new construction ease.
Franklin pairs a walkable, historic downtown with newer upscale subdivisions spreading south and west — Westhaven, Berry Farms, and the corridors off Highway 96 among them. It draws relocating families from California, Texas, and the Northeast who want Southern charm without sacrificing new construction, alongside longtime Nashvillians moving out for land and schools. Lot sizes and price points vary more here than almost anywhere else we build, from in-town infill to acreage toward the edge of the county. We take on projects across that range, matched to what the lot and the family actually need rather than a fixed template.
In Franklin, project scope tracks the lot — design-led homes from $1.5M in the newer subdivisions, up through $2.75M–$4M estate builds on larger acreage toward the edge of the county.

Common questions about building in Franklin
What does a custom home cost in Franklin?
Custom builds in Franklin typically run $1.2M–$4M depending on where you're building — in-town infill runs leaner than acreage toward the edge of the county. We'll narrow that fast once we know your lot and your list.
Does May build on owner lots in Franklin?
Yes. Franklin has the widest mix of owner-held lots of any area we serve — from a family's acreage outside town to an infill lot near downtown. We also acquire select Franklin lots directly; both paths start with a site walk and feasibility review.
Which schools serve Franklin?
School zoning changes by address, even within Franklin, so we don't publish specific assignments here. It's one of the first things we confirm during a lot review — ask us during a consult and we'll walk through what serves your specific street.
