There’s a new luxury community headed to Spring Hill.
Storied Development and Wheelock Street Capital, a Connecticut-based real estate investment firm, announced plans Friday for Firefly, a gated club community, according to a news release.
Located 30 miles south of Nashville on more than 700 acres, Firefly will feature 407 single-family homes, an 18-hole golf course and a 9-hole short course.
“The topography of Middle Tennessee is a perfect canvas for a really interesting, challenging golf course,” Andrew Green said in the release. “I think members are going to be excited by what we have planned.”
Green is the president of principal architect of A.H. Green Design/Green Golf & Turf, Inc. The Maury County courses will be his first original design.
Permitting for the courses is underway, with construction projected to begin by the end of 2024. The courses will be completed by the end of 2025 and open in 2026, according to the release.
Homesites will range from $500,000 to $1.5 million and closings on homesites are expected to begin this spring.

The community will also offer a full-service clubhouse, fitness center, family club, adult and kid pools, bowling alley, golf simulators and a racquet club with indoor pickleball courts.
“Firefly will be the premier club community in the Nashville area,” Mark Enderle, Storied partner, said in the release. “The amenities are designed to give everyone in the family an activity and a level of service they will love.”
Country club demand surged during the pandemic. At the end of 2019, about 25% of country clubs with golf courses had waitlists. Now, about 49% have waitlists, according to Chris Davis, a director at Club Benchmarking, which uses club data and evaluations to help properties plan for their capital needs.
A 40-minute drive south of Nashville, Spring Hill is the fifth-fastest-growing municipality among the more than 340 communities in Tennessee. The city, that’s now on its second or even third General Motors generation, morphed into a company town after GM made it the epicenter of its massive automotive plant.
Firefly marks Storied Development's second local private golf community. The Georgia-based private residential community developer was the firm behind The Grove, a 1,100-acre master planned golf community in College Grove, with involvement in other communities like Talisker Club in Park City, Utah, and Boot Ranch in Fredericksburg, Texas.
