What Oak Hill homes for sale cost

These are the $1M-plus sales recorded over the past year for homes for sale in Oak Hill, Nashville TN, and across the surrounding 37220 zip code, with names as recorded in RealTracs:

Area$1M+ salesMedian priceMedian $/sq ftMedian days on market
Oak Hill13$3,500,000$54335
Oak Hill Valley5$2,560,000$55910

Across 37220, 20 homes sold for $2.5 million or more and the highest sale reached $7,500,000. Prices in Oak Hill swing widely by pocket: the Oak Hill subdivision’s median is more than double Oak Hill Estates’. That is why Alex prices from what actually closed nearby, not from list prices.

Is Oak Hill a million-dollar neighborhood?

At the top end, yes. Of the 13 homes recorded in the Oak Hill subdivision that sold for $1 million or more last year, 10 sold for $2.5 million or more, and the highest reached $5,550,000. The tracker only counts sales of $1 million and up, so it does not show every sale in the city, and Oak Hill Estates shows a much lower median of $1,550,000.

Why buyers choose Oak Hill

The Oak Hill neighborhood in Nashville draws buyers who want quiet streets and wooded land without leaving the city. Most of Radnor Lake State Park sits inside Oak Hill, and Green Hills shopping is a short drive north.

It is also a slower market than its neighbors. The median sale in the Oak Hill subdivision took 35 days and closed at about 94 percent of its final list price, compared with about 97 percent across all three tracked zip codes. With only 13 sales, that is a small sample, but buyers here have generally had more time to decide than in Green Hills.
