Large Clarksville neighborhood on the edge of everything

Bluegrass Downs is a close-knit suburban neighborhood "That's super convenient to everything,” says Brandon Easton, leader of Sweet Home Realty’s The Elite team, who’s made just under 10 sales in Bluegrass Downs. “For the most part, it’s a pretty large neighborhood. You’ll see a variety of different floor plans and houses, and it’s all within decent price points.” A shopping center with chain brands and local staples borders the neighborhood to the north, while three schools sit just east of the community’s boundaries. A Regal movie theater abuts the homes on Marla Circle and “you can probably walk there from the subdivisions if you wanted to,” says Ciera Netherton, a Realtor with Legion Realty, who’s made nearly two dozen sales in Bluegrass Downs. Bluegrass Downs is also one of the neighborhoods closest to the Tennessee and Kentucky state line. This means direct proximity to Fort Campbell and that the community “is going to be heavily military,” Easton adds. “A lot of those people either have ties to the military, or are on active duty at the moment.”

Traditionals, ranch-styles and Craftsmen from 1990s and 2000s

Houses in Bluegrass Downs were primarily built in the 1990s and 2000s and many don ranch-style, Craftsman and Traditional designs. Most prominently feature vinyl and brick sidings, common of that er, paired with mature trees and shrubs. Chain link and wooden fences enclose many backyards, while colorful flower beds adorn a few front yards. Walking paths along the roads provide convenience for residents going on early morning and evening strolls and cul-de-sacs are another common feature. Most of the houses here run between 1,500 and 2,000 square feet, and their modest sizes are reflected in the neighborhood’s price points, which range from $245,000 to nearly $360,000.

A community that comes together

Tragedy struck Clarksville in December of 2023 when a tornado passed through the city and caused three fatalities. Bluegrass Downs was one of the neighborhoods the tornado hit. Tornadoes touchdown in the Clarksville area a little less than once every other year, with about 30 twisters passing through Montgomery County over the past seven decades. Spring is the typical tornado season, while a secondary season occurs between fall and winter. The aftermath of the December 2023 incident saw the community and the city band together in support of the repair efforts. “A lot of those have been redone and repaired by this point, but there are still some repairs going on,” Easton says. “This community, it really comes together. As soon as that tornado occurred, hundreds and probably thousands of people immediately started taking action, helping out with cleanup efforts, food deliveries, helping other people with housing. In a very short period of time, the entire community came together to help everyone who was negatively impacted by the tornado. It’s just a really great thing to see how tight the community is. It still has that small-town closeness you just don’t get with a lot of bigger cities anymore.”

Movies at Regal and dining around Tiny Town Road

A shopping center with both chain and local institutions sits right along the northern edge of the neighborhood. The Regal Clarksville movie theater is among the tenants and is a go-to spot for those looking to catch the latest blockbusters. The multiplex comes complete with the company’s high-quality RPX screen and reclining seats. Neighboring the movie house, the veteran-owned Getsome Coffee is popular for its variety of beverages and muffins. Dining options here include Clarksville institution Smokin Chikin, which specializes in gourmet rotisserie chicken. At Dos Margaritas Bar & Grill, many are fans of the plates of authentic soft shell tacos served with lime and jalapeno peppers. Farther down Tiny Town Road, there are more options like Bahama Buck’s and Four Brothers Wood-Fired Pizza. In addition to its snow cones, Bahama Buck’s treats include a small plastic bowl of strawberries and sliced bananas topped with honey and coconut flakes. A Sam’s Club and Publix, both nearly 4 miles south of Bluegrass Downs, provide some of the nearest grocery shopping options.

Nearby activities at Billy Dunlop Park

Located a few miles west of the neighborhood, and along the Red River, Billy Dunlop Park is one of the closest recreational spots. Here children enjoy the park’s playground and swing set, and during the summer months the park's banks come to life with activity. Teens take turns dangling from a swinging rope before plummeting into the water below. While those who enjoy walking can cross the park's tall pedestrian bridge to take in scenic views of both the Red River and the surrounding woodlands. The Sky Zone Trampoline Park about 3 miles south provides another hangout spot for children and teens.

Strong academics and athletics at Northeast High School

Students in Bluegrass Downs start at either Pisgah Elementary or Northeast Elementary School, depending on where they live within the neighborhood. The two elementary schools both receive B grades from the ratings site Niche. Pisgah Elementary School’s building features distinct architectural touches like pod areas for kindergarten through fifth-grade classrooms, which also benefit from ample natural light. Older students are zoned for Northeast Middle School and Northeast High School, which receive B-minus and C-plus grades respectively from Niche. Northeast High also offers a specialized Computer Information Technology Academy, which provides students for future careers in engineering or computer programming. The high school has also produced some impressive athletes. In 2016 and 2017, several football players set state records in regular season statistics like most receiving yards and most touchdown passes in a game.

Pisgah Elementary offers education to students from Pre-K through 5th grade.

Celebrations from nearby Clarksville Speedway to downtown

Bluegrass Downs sits just north of the Clarksville Speedway & Fairgrounds, which hosts events like the weeks-long Drive Thru Christmas Lights or the Montgomery County Fair. The Drive Thru, which takes place between late November and December, invites visitors to go on short tours of the speedway to enjoy a display of over 1 million lights. The fair occurs during a select few days in July and August, and goers can enjoy entertainment like carnival rides and racing. Many here also travel downtown to enjoy events like the July Fourth celebrations and the Lighted Christmas Parade in early December. Many businesses and organizations take part in the parade by entering a Holiday themed float or vehicle. “It depends on what people are interested in,” Easton says. “In Clarksville, a lot of people drive around,” visiting their favorite sites.

Close to major commuter route in I-24

Bluegrass Downs is located right off Interstate 24, which serves as a commuter route to both downtown Nashville and Fort Campbell. Many here, however, prefer taking Tiny Town Road to reach Fort Campbell, which is about 11 miles west of the neighborhood when using that route. Tiny Town runs along Bluegrass Downs’ northern bounds. For flights out of state, many use the Nashville International Airport, which is about 56 from the neighborhood. Located about 6 miles south, Tennova Healthcare - Clarksville serves as a major medical facility for this part of the city.
