Living in Westhaven Legacy: Franklin's 55+ Active Adult Community

Westhaven Legacy is the newest chapter of the Westhaven story — a 55+ active adult community being built within the larger Westhaven development by Southern Land Company. If you've always loved Westhaven's lifestyle but wanted a more age-appropriate, low-maintenance option, Legacy is designed for exactly that. The community features single-family homes designed specifically for active adults — single-level living, open floor plans, and premium finishes throughout. Residents get access to the Astor Club, a dedicated clubhouse and amenity center built exclusively for the 55+ section, plus full access to the broader Westhaven amenities including the Residence Club, pools, trails, and Village Center. Location within Westhaven means Legacy residents are walking distance (or golf cart distance) from restaurants, coffee shops, and retail. It also means proximity to adult children and grandchildren who may live in the main Westhaven community — a big draw for families who want to be close without sharing a roof. The tradeoff is that this is new construction, which means ongoing build-out through approximately 2031. If you buy early, you'll be living in a community that's still taking shape. But you'll also have the advantage of choosing your lot and customizing your home.
