Centered along 12th Avenue South in Davidson County, 12 South blends front-porch charm with one of Nashville’s best walkable dining and boutique corridors. From renovated cottages and tasteful new builds to luxe townhomes and condos, it’s a neighborhood made for coffee walks, patios, and easy living minutes from Belmont, Vandy/West End, and Downtown.
Highly walkable: cafés, bakeries, boutiques, and parks on your block
Mix of renovated cottages, modern new builds, and townhomes/condos
Quick access to Belmont, Vanderbilt/West End, Green Hills, and I-440
Lively yet residential vibe—tree-lined streets and front porches
Strong lifestyle appeal for both primary and lock-and-leave living
Mornings start with coffee and a stroll; afternoons mean errands on foot, a workout, or a park run; evenings spill onto patios for dinner with friends. Weekends bring farmers market stops, boutique browsing, and casual hangs, then a quick rideshare to Downtown shows or games.
Doorstep access to chef-driven spots, classic Nashville staples, and destination desserts—plus beloved boutiques and local makers all along 12th Ave S. Larger retail is a short hop to Green Hills; concert halls and arenas are minutes away Downtown.
Expect renovated historic homes, modern new construction, and low-maintenance townhomes/condos. Luxury commonly ranges $1.1M–$2.5M+, with premiums for walkability, lot size, newer builds, and parking. Buyers weigh street quiet vs. proximity to the strip; sellers who polish curb appeal, lighting, and staging see standout results.
Sevier Park: green space, community center, playgrounds, and events
Nearby Belmont and Rose Park areas for runs and workouts
Quick drives to Radnor Lake and Percy/Edwin Warner Parks for bigger trail systems
Murals, galleries, and pop-ups mix with songwriter culture all around you; major venues (Ryman, TPAC, Bridgestone) are a short rideshare away.
Coffee walk → Sevier Park loop → boutique browsing → patio brunch → sunset cocktails → quick Downtown show—repeat. It’s easy, social, and very Nashville.
Most addresses are served by Metro Nashville Public Schools. Proximity to Belmont University and short commutes to Vanderbilt add convenience for academics and healthcare professionals.
