## The Williamson County Pool Home Market: Real Numbers from the MLS Most articles about pool homes give you national statistics. This one gives you Williamson County data, pulled directly from the Realtracs MLS, covering all residential in-ground pool home sales, active listings, and properties under contract as of June 2026. Here is what the past six months of pool home activity actually looks like. Closed sales showed a median sales price of $1,912,350 and an average of $2,903,238 across all closed pool home transactions. Homes sold at a median of $411.88 per square foot, with an average of $505.08 per square foot. The median days on market was just 17 days. For homes in this price range, that is a meaningful signal about buyer demand. The median contract-to-close time was 32 days once a pool home went under contract. Among currently active listings, the median list price sits at $3,300,000 with an average of $4,084,899. Active pool home inventory is pricing at a median of $555.44 per square foot. Homes under contract and still showing have a median list price of $2,374,950, and the median time to contract for those properties was just 9 days. That 9-day median for pool homes under contract is notable. When a well-positioned pool home hits the market in Williamson County, serious buyers are paying attention quickly. The entry point for in-ground pool homes in the closed data starts around $534,000, but the largest concentration of closed sales sits in the $1 million to $2 million range. From there, the market extends well into the multi-million dollar tier, with closed sales reaching into the $5 million to $10 million range and beyond for large estate properties. --- ## What the Data Tells Sellers About Pool Homes in Williamson County If you own a home with an in-ground pool in Franklin, Brentwood, Spring Hill, Thompson's Station, or anywhere in Williamson County, the data above gives you a useful baseline. It also raises a critical question: where does your home fit within this wide range? Pool homes in Williamson County span an enormous price spectrum. A 3-bedroom home in Western Woods Village closed at $534,450. A property in Governors Club closed well above $3 million. The single variable that creates the most spread is not the pool itself. It is the overall property: lot size, home size, finishes, community, and school zone. What the pool does is attract a specific, motivated buyer profile. Buyers searching specifically for in-ground pool homes in this market are not casual browsers. They have made a lifestyle decision and are actively filtering for it. That means your listing reaches a more targeted audience, which drives faster decisions when the price and presentation are right. A few things that separate pool homes that close quickly from those that sit: **Condition is the biggest variable.** A well-maintained pool with current equipment, clean water, and a finished deck reads as a turnkey asset. A pool with deferred maintenance, aging coping, or cloudy water gives buyers a reason to negotiate down or walk away. Buyers in the $1 million to $3 million range in Williamson County are not interested in inheriting a maintenance project. **Pre-listing pool inspection pays for itself.** You will spend less getting ahead of issues than you will giving concessions during contract negotiations when a buyer's inspector finds them first. **Photography matters more than most sellers expect.** A pool with poor photography, covered in winter tarps, shot in flat light, or photographed with bad angles, undersells the feature. Twilight photography showing lit water, clean decking, and an inviting outdoor environment is worth the investment at this price point. **Pricing against the right comps requires pool-specific analysis.** Your pool home should not be priced against non-pool homes in your neighborhood. I pull pool-specific comparable sales when listing pool homes so that the pricing reflects what buyers have actually paid for the feature. --- ## What the Data Tells Buyers About Pool Homes in Williamson County That 17-day median days on market for closed pool home sales is your most important number as a buyer. The Williamson County pool home market is not a segment where you browse casually and make an offer whenever you get around to it. Here is how to approach it strategically: **Know your target price tier before you start.** The pool home market in Williamson County spans from the mid-$500,000s to well into eight figures for large estate properties. The experience of buying a pool home at $850,000 in Arbors at Autumn Ridge is entirely different from buying at $3 million in Governors Club or $5 million in The Grove. Know your tier, and know what pool quality and outdoor amenity level to expect within it. **Get fully pre-approved before you tour.** At the median pool home price of nearly $2 million, a pre-qualification letter is not sufficient. Sellers of pool homes in this market expect buyers to arrive with complete underwriting, not a letter that says you might be able to get the loan. If you are paying cash, have your proof of funds documented in advance. **Insist on a pool inspection.** Even on homes with newer construction, pool inspections are essential. You want to know the age and condition of the pump, filter, heater, and salt system if applicable; the condition of the shell, coping, and decking; any prior repairs; and the permit history. An unpermitted pool is a red flag that can create insurance, appraisal, and resale complications down the road. **Understand the ongoing cost structure.** Annual chemical and service costs for an in-ground pool in Middle Tennessee typically run $1,200 to $2,500. Utilities for pump and filtration add $800 to $2,500 per year depending on equipment efficiency. Pools classified as salt systems generally have lower chemical costs but require periodic salt cell replacement. These are manageable costs at the price points where Williamson County pool homes trade, but they are worth factoring into your ownership budget. **Think about the full outdoor package, not just the pool.** The closed sales data includes a wide range of outdoor environments. A pool surrounded by dated landscaping and no covered patio is a different ownership experience than a pool integrated into a full resort-style backyard. At the $1.5 million and above tier, buyers in Williamson County are increasingly expecting the complete package: pool, covered outdoor living space, quality hardscape, and cohesive landscaping. --- ## Pool Home Communities Worth Knowing in Williamson County The closed sales data spans communities across the county. A few that appear with notable frequency in pool home transactions: **Arbors at Autumn Ridge** (Spring Hill area) shows up consistently in the $850,000 to $1.2 million pool home range. Multiple closed sales in this community reflect strong buyer demand for that price tier with pool features. **Inglehame Farms, Brenthaven, and River Landing** appear in the $1.5 million to $2.3 million closed range, representing established Brentwood-area communities where mature pools are a common feature. **Westhaven** in Franklin has pool home sales spread across multiple price tiers, from the mid-$1 millions into the $3.5 million range, reflecting its broad range of home sizes and lot types. **The Grove** represents the upper-end pool home market in the closed data, with multiple closed sales between $2.5 million and $8 million, featuring resort-caliber outdoor environments in a private community setting. **Governors Club** pool homes appear in the $2.9 million to $3.6 million closed range, with large homes on generous lots in a gated golf community. --- ## The Bottom Line for Williamson County Pool Home Buyers and Sellers The MLS data confirms what experienced agents in this market already know: in-ground pool homes in Williamson County are in demand, they move faster than the general market median suggests, and the price range is genuinely wide, from entry-level pool homes in the $500,000 range all the way to estate properties north of $10 million. What determines where a pool home lands in that range, and how quickly it moves, is condition, presentation, community, and pricing against the right comps. That is true whether you are buying or selling. I work with buyers and sellers of pool homes across Williamson County every day. If you want to know what a pool home is worth in your specific neighborhood, or where the best values are in your target community and price range, the conversation starts with a call.
