About this property

The Waverly - Classic Southern Victorian Mansion - less than 2mi from Dwntwn

Located just two miles from downtown, 1 mile to convention center, Music Row, Vandy, and Belmont. and blocks from cool music venues, bars, and restaurants, this home is an ideal set up for large groups needing to be close to town...and for those wanting a peaceful neighborhood to get some rest! Three floors, tons of sleeping areas, & 5 full showers! Perfect set up for families, bachelorette groups, and corporate retreats! (Permit number: CASR-(PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN))

This house has been featured on A&E, numerous country videos, tons of magazines, media events with CMT, Rolling Stone Magazine, and so much more!
With soaring 15 ft ceilings, the first thing you will notice is the hand carved and recently hand sanded gingerbread Victorian staircase. The house has custom trim, tile, designer touches throughout. 6! Yes six original hand carved and tile fireplaces.

Our goal is for our guest to enter as strangers and leave as friends. We stay nearby and are always available to recommend dining options, music venues, and hot spots to visit.

This property is in Woodland-in-Waverly (formally 12 south), the oldest surviving suburb in Nashville, just 2 miles south of the heart of downtown and convenient to everything. I-65 is literally a stone's throw away (but no traffic noise). Downtown, Broadway, Music Row, Hillsboro Village, 12 South, and West End are all just a few minutes away. You can also walk to a comedy club, corner bar, coffee shop, and a host of cool thrift/antique shops and tasty restaurants. The neighborhood is safe, charming, and quiet with wide streets and sidewalks just made for strollin'. We are central to shopping, historical sites, parks & sports venues. You will have a key so you can come and go as you please, but your hosts are on site to help with any needs that come up.

We have street parking in the front of the house and three parking spots in the rear. From the airport, travel 40 West to 65 South, take exit 81 Wedgewood, Go east on Wedgewood toward Belmont and Vanderbilt University. Left on 8th and left on the second street, Benton Ave. We are the third house on the left. Taxis to downtown are less than $8 (much cheaper than parking). The Metro Bus has a stop at the edge of our neighborhood.

You will have a key so you can come and go as you please, but your hosts are in the neighborhood to help with any needs that come up.

The house is yours! We have a few areas labeled private (food pantries) but other than that--make yourself at home!

Our goal is to make our house your house. We are in the neighborhood if you need us, but will likely not cross paths unless specifically requested.

This is the closest established neighborhood to downtown! You can not stay any closer to the action. While I would not recommend walking, since an uber is so cheap and convenient, it has happened. I walked it when I was 8 months pregnant. This house is in one of the HOTTEST neighborhoods of all Nashville-- walk to just about everything or just stay in the neighborhood and stroll around appreciating all the historic charm. Lots and lots of early 1900 mansions and 1920/30s bungalows! Plus, the neighbors are great... you will see plenty families raking leaves, walking fur babies and real babies, and chatting with each other. Say hi! They are all great!

The airport is 10 minutes away-$10-20 by Uber. Downtown is just 2 miles-or a $8 Uber/Lyft. There are bus stops at the end of the street, but I have never ridden it to make suggestions. There are 3 parking pads in the back in our fenced/gated backyard...and plenty of street parking.

Incredible House and Location
Everyone in my group of 12 was raving about the house the moment they walked in and had the tour. What a beautiful house, well looked after, incredible location. We were there for my wife's 60th birthday celebration and we had people flying in from all over. We are already talking about making this an annual event and stay in The Waverly again. Right after I arrived, I received a call asking if everything in the house was okay and they offered their phone number should any issues arise. Thank you for everything you did to make our Nashville trip a very memorable one!

Even better than expected
This house is gorgeous. The mixture of historical and modern was so tastefully done. The living areas are perfect for a large group. The management company was extremely responsive and accommodating. The kitchen had all the basics though may have been a little light on extras for the gourmet cook. The beds were amazingly comfortable and the neighborhood was close to so much it was very convenient. We absolutely loved it.

Not what I expected
The property was not at all what I expected. The check in was horrible. I wont go in to details because the property manager did contact me after the fact and he did make things right with me to help cover all the bad things that had occurred so I do appreciate him. Other than that the stay was ok. The house does have potential. It seems to need a good cleaning and general maintenance upkeep. Quite a few things that were broken. The neighborhood was not the best. They built this place up in my head by telling me how amazing it was and I was let down and so were all of my guests.

Why they chose this property

This property is located in the best neighborhood in Nashville...and only 2 miles from downtown! Rich with history, character, and proximity to all things cool about Nashville. The house was built in 1887 (the oldest standing house in the Neighborhood). In the early 1900's, when the first street cars were added to Nashville, the house was uprooted from its location on 8th Ave and moved with logs and mules onto it current foundation. Since that time, the house has been a catering company and a daycare. We purchased the house after it sat for over a decade vacant. We renovated it to the original 2x6 studs. Although we updated all the mechanics, we restored everything that we could to it's original charm.

What makes this property unique

This house sits in a neighborhood FULL of gorgeous historic homes. You can walk to a comedy club, a music venue reserved only for established song writers, a coffee shop, award winning Thai, antique stores, and Subway all in less than 2 blocks. The house is huge, but cozy. It has COMFORTABLE beds and the decor is an eclectic mix of finds from our world travels. The house is truly one of a kind!
