Not every home stops you in your tracks, but this one does. This spectacular mid century residence sits in South Nashville and brings together the kind of light, character, and thoughtful design that is genuinely hard to find at any price point. Walls of natural light pour through, giving every room an airy, open quality that feels more like a retreat than a typical neighborhood home. With three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a bonus room that works as a home office, guest suite, or hobby space, plus a dedicated family room and separate living area, this home lives with a flexibility that modern buyers are actively searching for. Whether you work from home, host out of town guests, or just need room to spread out, the layout delivers. The updated kitchen features an island with generous storage, making it as functional as it is good looking. Two years ago this home received a complete top to bottom renovation and it shows in every detail. Priced to sell and ready for its next chapter. OPEN HOUSE SATURDAY 2-4
