Welcome to Shelton Square, your new home in the peaceful Blackman neighborhood of Murfreesboro, Tennessee. We’re just 1.5 miles from I-840, which serves as an outer bypass route around Nashville, making it easy for you to access all the area has to offer.

Murfreesboro is a thriving town with a touch of Southern nostalgia and the motto “creating a better quality of life,” which is exactly what you will find. From the historic downtown main street where the community gathers at the town square for annual events, to the abundance of outdoor activities like the Greenway System and the Richard Siegel Soccer Complex & community park, there truly is something for everyone.

Just a short drive away, you’ll find yourself in Franklin, a town rooted in Americana. Main Street in downtown Franklin thrives with southern hospitality, historic preservation, and modern sophistication. There, you can enjoy a craft cocktail at one of the many bars, indulge in local cuisine, snag an heirloom in the antique district, or attend one of the numerous free festivals throughout the year. Locals also enjoy movies, live concerts, live theater, and stand-up comedy performances at the historic Franklin Theater.

For even more things to do, visit Nashville, which is home to professional sports teams, museums, the Nashville Symphony, concert venues, and many other cultural attractions to keep you busy. The city has become a true foodie destination and attracts visitors from all around the world for its live music scene.
