Although built in 1935, the property has undergone a complete top-to-bottom restoration with high-end designer finishes. The kitchen features new soapstone countertops, zellige tile, and modern stainless appliances. The interior shows mint condition with new built-ins, lighting, and millwork, qualifying it as a recent (<5 year) comprehensive renovation.

Located in a highly sought-after East Nashville pocket, the property is positioned near major neighborhood hotspots and a massive future mixed-use development, ensuring strong long-term appreciation potential.
The home includes a fully fenced backyard and an abundance of off-street parking, which are rare and highly desirable features for a historic bungalow in this dense urban corridor.
At just 963 square feet with only one bathroom, the compact layout may be a challenge for buyers needing extra space for a home office or a growing family.
The property is zoned for middle and high schools with low performance ratings (3 and 2 respectively), which could be a deterrent for families prioritizing public education.
