Rare Multi-Generational Home with 4.46 Acres IN THE CITY! This former farm is where country charm meets city convenience, and it's minutes from the airport, interstate, Hip Donelson, and downtown. Built in 1938, the original home is filled with character, and has been thoughtfully re-configured for multi-generational living. The primary side features 3 bedrooms and two full baths. Two bedrooms are on the main, with an upstairs loft-style bedroom with a full bathroom and living room. The kitchen has a large central island, Jenn Air gas range and beverage fridge. The adjoining apartment has two bedrooms, a kitchenette, and a full bathroom; creating an ideal setup for family, guests, or rental income. Prefer a single-family layout? The home can easily be converted back with the removal of a single wall. Endless possibilities await outside with two huge garages. One includes a wood shop and a 24’ x 20’ artist’s studio with electric, plumbing and a half bath. The second is a giant 30' x 80' car workshop with a 2 Post A-Symmetric Lift (10,000 pounds) and 200 Amp service. Not into cars? Turn it into a recording studio, a work-from-home or entertainment space....the sky is the limit! At the back of the property is a charming "off-grid" solar-powered two-bedroom cottage. How "off-grid"? The gutters run into a 500 gallon tank, the bathroom utilizes grey water and has a composting toilet, (can be connected to sewer,) there's a wood burning stove in the living room and a propane heater in the bedroom. The cottage is mainly used in the winter months, but you could easily add mini-splits for cooling for year-round living. Clear some brush to also reveal a creek at the back of the property! Whether you’re looking for a private Nashville homestead, a multi-generational home, an income-producing property, or simply room to breathe without giving up city access, this property offers acreage, flexibility, and location. Bring your vision to finish what these creative sellers started.

Welcome to 1310 Riverwood—a one-of-a-kind Inglewood property with character, flexibility, and possibilities you simply don’t find every day. Set on nearly half an acre, it’s a collection of spaces ready for income-producing use, multigenerational living, a recording or creative studio, office, workshop, guests—or simply room to spread out. The main house welcomes you with an oversized front porch, custom trellis, and—yes—a disco ball. Inside, an airy living room flows to the dining room with bay window, built-in corner cabinet, and solid wood swinging door. The kitchen brings even more personality with stainless steel countertops, period flooring, and a back door straight to the garden. The main level also has two spacious bedrooms with cedar-lined closets, a black-and-white tiled bath, and an office that can double as a bedroom. Original details are everywhere: hardwood floors, wide crown molding with picture rails, solid wood doors, period lighting, and perhaps best of all—a built-in telephone niche. A full basement adds storage and potential. Upstairs, a separate space currently operates as a profitable Airbnb, with a full kitchen and incredible vintage stove, 1950s-diner-style dining nook, sitting area, large bedroom, full bath, cozy living room, and office. Furnishings may stay with the right offer. Outside: generous parking, a pollinator garden, and a peaceful back porch, all near East Nashville’s restaurants, shops, and music. And then there’s the Little House. Barn doors open to a bright gathering room with stone fireplace, wall of windows, custom upholstered wall detail, and original tile floors. Add a kitchen, full bath, and two cozy dens and imagine the possibilities: recording studio, creative hideaway, office, workshop, guest quarters, or gathering place. 1310 Riverwood is layered, unexpected, full of personality—and ready for whatever you imagine next.

In a neighborhood celebrated for its energy, Oakland Avenue has become one of its most coveted addresses for a very different reason: peace and privacy. Just moments from the restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, and parks that define 12 South, this quiet stretch of the neighborhood feels remarkably insulated from the activity surrounding it. Built by JBT Builders, one of Nashville's most respected names in craftsmanship and custom construction, this home was designed for those who want proximity without the noise, convenience without the congestion, and a level of privacy that has become increasingly rare in the urban core. Mature surroundings and a quiet streetscape create an unexpected sense of calm from the moment you arrive. Inside, white oak floors, custom millwork, steel-framed windows, and carefully layered materials create interiors that feel collected rather than constructed. The office is wrapped in rich textures and warm tones, the dining room is anchored by a custom wet bar, and a chef's kitchen supported by a fully equipped scullery makes both everyday living and entertaining effortless. Thoughtful sightlines and generous gathering spaces allow the home to feel inviting despite its scale. The primary suite offers a sense of separation and calm, anchored by a bathing environment that feels more akin to a five-star hotel suite than a traditional primary bath, where proportion, materiality, and light take precedence over excess. Outside, the property takes on an entirely different rhythm. Mornings begin beside the pool with coffee and a quiet backyard rarely found this close to the city. Afternoons move between the putting green, shaded gathering spaces, and outdoor kitchen. Evenings stretch a little longer as friends linger around the fire and dinner gives way to conversation. Few properties successfully balance walkable urban living with genuine privacy. Fewer still do so with this level of craftsmanship.
