Rural bedroom community miles north of Nashville
The area around the intersection of Cheatham Dam Road and Tennessee Route 12 is called Cheap Hill. Local stories say the name came from a store that was popular throughout the area for its low prices. “Everybody would just say, ‘I’m going to Cheap Hill,’” says Amanda Bell, a Realtor with At Home Realty. Cheap Hill blends into Cheatham County’s primarily rural area of Chapmansboro. These scenic farmlands between Pleasant View and Ashland City include attractions like the historic Adalea, a more than 150-year-old estate that Bell owns in Cheap Hill. Anchored by an impressive house with Colonial and Greek touches, the 143-acre site is a destination for picturesque weddings and keeps a horse boarding facility. The peaceful scenery makes Chapmansboro’s appeal. “The biggest thing is peace and quiet. There’s not the hustle and bustle of the city going on. Traffic is limited,” says Cheatham County Commissioner Bill Powers, whose district covers Chapmansboro. “It’s basically nicknamed a bedroom community. Everybody gets up in the morning, leaves to go to work outside and comes back.” Bell echoes Powers’ points. “It’s pretty much halfway between Ashland City and Clarksville. It’s good if you work in Ashland City, or even Pleasant view, because it’s a quick drive there. But it also allows you to work and play in Clarksville,” she says.
Ranch-style and log farmhouses on multi-acre lots
The houses in Chapmansboro dot rural lands that mix open fields and dense clusters of tall and mature trees. Ranch-style houses and log farmhouses sit along two-lane country roads and share multi-acre lots with small barns or buildings storing farm equipment. Fixtures like propane tanks, wooden swing chairs and narrow gravel driveways with parked pickups on the ends complete the rural character. “We hold on as tight as we can to rural living in Cheatham County,” says county Mayor Kerry McCarver. A few modern Traditional houses built within the past few years also add to the mix of houses. Depending on factors like age, size and acreage, many houses here can go from $275,000 to just under $570,000. A few houses that are either several thousand square feet in size or sit on well over two-dozen acres can run for over $700,000.
Some areas of Chapmansboro have brick Ranch homes.
Log homes are a rare architectural style in Chapmansboro.

Water-oriented activities along the Cumberland River
The Cumberland River flows right on the southern edge of Chapmansboro. The Sycamore Recreation Area draws kayakers who enjoy paddling down the water. The roughly 6-mile Cumberland River Bicentennial trail also cuts through the area. The path passes through a natural woodland tunnel, and its users can treat themselves to overlooking views of the surrounding habitat when they cross the truss bridge going over the Sycamore Creek. The Bicentennial Trail continues west, passing by the Dyson Ditch Wildlife Refuge before reaching the Cheatham Dam Right Bank recreation area. The steady supply of bass and catfish at the site draws many anglers.
Chapmansboro residents can visit the Cheatham Dam Right Bank for boating.

Hearty meals Cumberland Grille
Chapmansboro keeps a modest shopping and dining scene. “It’s extremely rural, there’s a lot of farmland and very few businesses. Most of all the businesses around are convenience stories, Dollar General stores, stuff like that,” Powers says. But the community does have one staple in the Cumberland Grille, which is popular for its hearty plates of deep-fried foods, cheeseburgers and fries and pies. For grocery shopping, the Food Lion in Ashland City provides one of a few options in the area. The Riverview Restaurant & Marina on Ashland City’s western bounds serves plates of fried fish and hush puppies and a slice of key lime pie as a dessert option. Patrons can also sip on margaritas as they take in views of the Cumberland from the outdoor porch. Pleasant View to the east is another nearby spot for more dining and shopping. Options include Golly G’s Coffee, Ice Cream & Sweets, a staple for desserts.
Locals living near Chapmansboro can take in the Cumberland views at the Riverview Restaurant.
The Cumberland Grille has been serving the communities around Chapmansboro for over 14 years.
