Renovations and additions steps from Crockett Park

Concord Hunt sits just off Concord Road about a mile and a half from I-65, next door to Crockett Park. All-brick houses, deep lawns, and a community pool — with the city's biggest park effectively serving as the neighborhood's back yard.

History & architecture

How Concord Hunt was built

The neighborhood was developed along Concord Road as Brentwood built out the corridor between Franklin Road and I-65.

Its houses follow the Brentwood convention of the period: all-brick elevations, formal front rooms, and attached garages on generous suburban lots.

Proximity to Crockett Park, which the city developed into its principal athletic and events park, shaped the neighborhood's family-oriented identity.

Concord Road improvements over the years have changed access patterns, including the closure of one neighborhood entrance during road construction.

The community pool has remained the neighborhood's shared amenity and social anchor.

Zoning & overlays

Common zoning codes in Concord Hunt

These are the base districts and overlays we see most often on Concord Hunt lots. Always confirm your parcel's district and overlays on the Metro zoning map before design decisions get expensive.

R-2Suburban Residential

One-acre minimum lot, 125 ft width, 75 ft front, 20 ft side, 30 ft rear, 25% building coverage — the standard fit for Brentwood subdivisions of this character. Verify your parcel on the city zoning map.

R-1Large Lot Residential

Two-acre standards with a 150 ft front setback and 30 ft sides apply on some parcels along the Concord Road corridor.

Overlays that apply here

HOA

Concord Hunt homeowners association standards

Recorded covenants and the HOA architectural committee govern exterior changes here — confirm current standards with your association before design starts, since they are amended more often than zoning.

STORMWATER

Stormwater and riparian buffers

Lots near the Little Harpeth drainage and park edge carry Chapter 56 buffer and stormwater requirements.

Permitting path

  1. 1Start with your homeowners association's architectural review committee. In Brentwood's planned subdivisions the HOA covenants are usually stricter than the zoning ordinance on materials, roof pitch, garage orientation, and outbuildings.
  2. 2Confirm the parcel's base district — AR, R-1, R-2, or OSRD — on the City of Brentwood zoning map, because the front setbacks differ dramatically between them (175 ft in AR, 150 ft in R-1, 75 ft in R-2, 50 ft in OSRD).
  3. 3Check the 25% maximum building coverage across all structures. On Brentwood lots this, not floor area, is usually what caps an addition plus a detached garage or pool house.
  4. 4If the lot includes steep or visually prominent slopes, the Hillside Protection Overlay applies and the planning commission reviews the site plan and grading; accessory structures in front or side yards also need planning commission approval there.
  5. 5Creek-adjacent lots carry Chapter 56 stormwater, erosion control, and riparian buffer requirements that shape where a footprint can go.
  6. 6Then submit to Planning & Codes for the building permit. There is no Certificate of Appropriateness step anywhere in Brentwood.

What this means for your Concord Hunt project

  • The 75 ft front setback in R-2 means front-facing additions are effectively off the table — plan growth to the rear or up.
  • Rear screened porches and covered outdoor rooms are the highest-return project for houses this close to a park; they extend the season by months.
  • Main-level primary suites are the most requested structural addition, and the 30 ft rear setback usually sets their depth.
  • A detached garage or workshop is achievable, but the 25% coverage cap counts it alongside the house and any roofed porch.
  • Where the addition meets an all-brick original, a designed material change — board and batten, stone base, or a lower connecting roof — reads better than an imperfect brick match.
