The Sherwood Green House is a property in Nolensville, Tennessee, United States, that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. The property is also known as WM-194.[2]

It was built c.1810 and had significant developments also in c.1840, and c.1928. It includes Central passage plan and other architecture. When listed the property included four contributing buildings, one contributing site, and two non-contributing structures, on an area of 8 acres (3.2 ha).[2]

Like the John Motheral House and the William Leaton House (also NRHP-listed in Williamson County), the house was built as a single story log pen building, and was later enlarged to achieve an "imposing" two story frame construction.[1][2]

Sherwood Green was a surveyor who was paid in land for his services. Green came to own more than 1,000 acres (400 ha) in the area.[1]
