Antioch could be in line for a fresh wave of for-sale housing, as national builder M/I Homes moves to plant roughly 182 homes in southeast Nashville. Newly filed plans show a sizable subdivision in the works, a proposal local coverage has described as a 100-plus-home project, and one of the larger single-builder plays to surface in the area this year. Neighbors and city planners will now be zoning in on Metro’s review process for answers on timing, traffic, and infrastructure.
According to the Nashville Business Journal, the developer’s filing lists about 182 units for the Antioch parcel and includes a rendering credited to Thomas & Hutton via Metro records. The report characterizes the plan as a 100-plus-home development and notes that the public filing does not spell out a detailed construction schedule. The application now sits on Metro’s public docket, where it will go through technical review before any building permits are on the table.
Builder already active across Nashville
M/I Homes is not a newcomer to the market. The company already lists several Nashville-area communities on its website and reported operating more than 230 active communities at year-end 2025. That kind of scale helps explain the pivot to Antioch, a part of Davidson County where bigger tracts of land and recent commercial momentum have been pulling in homebuilders. With a national footprint and a growing Nashville pipeline, this Antioch filing could turn into a very visible neighborhood project once approvals clear.
Where the new homes would land and why it matters
Antioch has been steadily filling in with retail and mixed-use projects, a shift that has made the southeast corridor more appealing to both builders and buyers. Coverage of filings at Century Farms, including Target’s plans as Target zeroes in on Antioch, has highlighted commercial growth that often arrives just ahead of major residential moves. Local listings and land records show nearby parcels marketed for multifamily and for-sale development around Bell Road and I-24, reinforcing Antioch’s role as a practical growth node for the region.
At the same time, Greater Nashville Realtors points out that the broader market is still relatively tight, with roughly 11,400 active listings across the region. That means any new for-sale supply in Antioch will be closely watched by shoppers and brokers looking for more options…
