Hendersonville, Suburban city in Sumner County, Tennessee, United States.
Hendersonville sits on the shores of Old Hickory Lake, spanning 32.9 square miles with numerous residential neighborhoods and waterfront properties.
The settlement began in 1784 when Daniel Smith received a land grant from North Carolina, leading to the construction of Rock Castle estate in 1796.
The city maintains strong connections to country music, with former residents including Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash who made their home in the area.
The location provides direct access to Nashville via Vietnam Veterans Boulevard and features multiple shopping centers along Main Street and Indian Lake Boulevard.
Old Hickory Dam, completed in 1954, transformed the surrounding farmland into a water recreation destination, spurring rapid residential development.
