ABOUT FOREST HILLS
An incorporated city within Nashville — and one of the most sought-after addresses in Middle Tennessee.
Forest Hills isn't just a neighborhood — it's its own incorporated city, and that distinction matters. Strict single-family zoning, a Hillside Protection Overlay, and a deeply engaged civic community have kept Forest Hills exactly what it was always meant to be: a private, wooded, estate-style enclave just minutes from everything Nashville has to offer.
Homes here range from lovingly preserved mid-century ranches to sprawling custom new builds, with lots that feel more like personal nature reserves than suburban yards. If you value land, privacy, and a neighborhood that has actively protected its own character, Forest Hills is unlike anywhere else in the city.
