Southern Land Company Taps Choate Construction as General Contractor for Fairington’s Amenity Center
Southern Land Company (SLC), a Nashville-based national real estate developer of award-winning master-planned and mixed-use communities, has started construction on Fairington Club, a modern amenity center for homeowners and their guests at Fairington, SLC’s new 373-acre master-planned community in Nolensville.
This community development milestone comes less than six months after the first homeowners moved into Fairington.
“While Fairington is still in its early stages of development and construction, we’re prioritizing what matters most—giving homeowners swift access to the inspired club living that defines this community,” said Brian Sewell, SLC President and COO. “Once complete, Fairington Club will provide homeowners a dedicated space for fitness, wellness, and social engagement, and will serve as one of the unique destinations within the community.”
Choate Construction, with a track record of constructing iconic buildings in Middle Tennessee and across the Southeast, is serving as the general contractor for the project. Choate Construction is also the general contractor on Astor Club & Residences, SLC’s luxury, 55+ rental community at Westhaven in Franklin.
“Fairington Club is an important project for our Choate Nashville division,” said Matt Relick, Choate’s Nashville division manager. “We’re proud to continue our partnership with Southern Land Company on a development that reflects our shared commitment to quality, thoughtful execution, and long-term value—bringing a well-designed amenity center to serve the community’s homeowners.”
Distinctive design and innovative planning guide the vision for Fairington Club. Comprised of more than 10,000 square feet, Fairington Club’s amenity spaces will span two primary buildings—one outfitted for fitness offerings and a second designed for neighborly gatherings and programming. A third building will be dedicated to the community’s resort-inspired swimming pool. Situated on more than four acres, Fairington Club will provide homeowners with cardio, movement, and strength studios; a teaching kitchen; a “Craft & Create” room; event lawns; a basketball court; tennis and pickleball courts; the aforementioned swimming pool with a water slide; fire pits; and a dog park. A dedicated community lifestyle manager will also join our team to facilitate special events and engaging programming, amplifying the homeowner experience.
Fairington Club will be part of the Village Commons, a mixed-use destination that will also include 15,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space. While Fairington Club is exclusively for homeowners and their guests, the commercial component of Village Commons will be open to the greater Middle Tennessee community, creating a welcoming hub for homeowners, neighbors, and visitors. Fairington Club is expected to open in 2027.
“Community and connection are the foundation of all SLC communities,” said Sewell. “With the groundbreaking complete, we are well on our way to introducing Fairington’s central hub of activity for homeowners, their families, and guests.”
Upon completion, Fairington will consist of more than 700 homes, bringing new housing options to Nolensville, which was named Tennessee’s fastest-growing city in 2025. Fairington will feature single-family residences and townhomes in various sizes and architectural styles. All homes are designed by SLC’s single-family architecture team and built by SLC Homes, the company’s homebuilding division. Signature features throughout the community include welcoming front porches for relaxing and gathering with neighbors, sidewalks along every street, and meticulously curated landscaping by SLC’s landscape architecture team. Home prices start in the mid-$800,000s.
Fairington’s master plan also includes 160 acres of open green space, parks, and walking trails designed to preserve the community’s natural beauty and seamlessly integrate with the greater Nolensville area. Additionally, a select parcel within the community will serve as the site for a future public elementary school for Williamson County Schools.
