Unionville, Tennessee

Unionville Real Estate: Homes, Land, and Acreage.

Unionville anchors the north end of Bedford County, close enough to Murfreesboro to commute and far enough out to still feel like the country. Homes, small farms, and acreage all trade here, and they do not all sell the same way.

The Unionville Market

Close to Murfreesboro, Still Bedford County.

Unionville is an unincorporated community at the north end of Bedford County, with a population of 1,394 as of the 2020 census. That number undersells its reach. The Community school complex here serves the whole northern end of the county, and plenty of people who say they live in Unionville sit well outside any census line.

The practical draw is position. You are close enough to Murfreesboro and the Rutherford County job market for a daily commute to make sense, while staying in Bedford County. Buyers who have priced Rutherford County and flinched often end up looking here, and they are usually looking for land with the house.

The town was platted in 1827 and named for the fact that two rival settlements finally merged under one name. Its post office has been running since 1837. For a community this size, that is a remarkably long unbroken run.

What to Know

Buying or Selling Around Unionville.

Northern Bedford County, and that matters

Unionville sits at the north end of the county, which puts Murfreesboro and the Rutherford County job market within a realistic commute while keeping county taxes and county pace. For a lot of buyers that combination is the entire reason they are looking here.

The Community schools are the anchor

Community Elementary, Community Middle, and Community High all sit here, serving the northern end of the county. Families searching this area are usually searching this school zone specifically, which changes how a listing should be written and where it should be pointed.

Land and acreage need aerial work

A lot of what trades around Unionville is acreage, small farms, and homes on real land. None of that reads properly in interior photos. The shape of the parcel, the tree line, the road frontage, and the outbuildings are the product, and showing them takes drone and video.

A town literally named for a compromise

Unionville was platted in 1827 and took its name because two rival settlements merged into one. The post office has run continuously since 1837. That is a long time for a small community to hold together, and it shows in how people here talk about the place.
