## Character

        

Estate-scale residential with minimal commercial intrusion. The City of Belle Meade enforces strict zoning preventing multi-family and commercial development.

      
    
    
          
        

## History

        

Belle Meade was incorporated as an independent city in 1938, separating from Davidson County to maintain exclusivity and resist annexation by Nashville. The Belle Meade Plantation, a National Historic Landmark, operated as a thoroughbred horse farm from 1807 until the early 20th century.
