12 South Homes for Sale: 2112 15th Ave S, a 1930 Colonial Near Belmont University

Jason Gruner, REALTOR, Coldwell Banker Southern Realty

Front exterior of 2112 15th Ave S, a 1930 Colonial with a large front porch and stone steps up from the street, one of the 12 South homes for sale in Nashville

2112 15th Ave S is one of the 12 South homes for sale right now, listed at $999,999. It is a 1930 Colonial with four bedrooms, two full baths and one half bath, and 2,989 square feet by tax record, a number that includes a 784 square foot partially finished basement. What caught my eye is the mix of old house character and a practical layout. You walk up stone steps to a big front porch, the living room has a fireplace with an antique mantel, and the primary suite is on the main level. Homes from this era with a main level primary are not common on this side of 12 South Nashville. I'm Jason Gruner with Coldwell Banker Southern Realty, and I track the neighborhood every week. Here is how I read this one.

Inside the home

The listing describes an updated 1930 home with hardwood floors throughout the first and second floors, and the main level keeps the classic rooms you expect in a house this age.

The dining room is about 12 by 12, with panel mold walls and windows that look out over the front porch.

Outdoor space and the lot

The lot is 0.16 acres by tax record, about 50 by 138 feet. It sits up from the street, so the front of the house is reached by stone steps and a large rocking chair front porch. The lot is sloped and the listing describes it as private with a partial fence.

Why 15th Ave S works in 12 South

2112 15th Ave S is in the 37212 ZIP code, in the Belmont Land subdivision, and inside my Realtracs "12 South" search. 15th Avenue South runs parallel to 12th Avenue South a few blocks to the west, on the Belmont side of the neighborhood. The listing remarks place the home near Belmont University, the shops and restaurants of 12th South, and Sevier Park. That puts you on a residential street with the commercial strip close by rather than out your front door. Exact walking times are not in the listing, so I map routes when we tour. If you are searching for homes for sale in 12 South Nashville TN under $1,000,000 with a main level primary, 15th Ave S Nashville is a street worth a look.

Living in 12 South, one of Nashville's best neighborhoods

One reason I think 12 South belongs on any list of the best Nashville neighborhoods is what sits around it. On the north and west side, the neighborhood meets Belmont University, and the Belmont name shows up all over this part of town, including the Belmont Land subdivision name on this listing. On the Belmont campus you will find Belmont Mansion, built in the 1850s for Adelicia Acklen and open to the public as a museum, one of the oldest pieces of history this close to 12 South real estate.

That history matches the houses. Many streets on the Belmont side of 12 South are lined with homes built in the early twentieth century, with front porches, hardwood floors, and the kind of trim and mantels you see in this one. Newer homes have filled in around them, so you get a real mix of old and new on the same block.

Head east and you reach the 12th Avenue South strip, with its shops, coffee, and restaurants, and Sevier Park at the south end. For a walkable Nashville neighborhood that still feels residential, that combination is hard to match.

The 12 South market right now

Recent sales averaged $1,213,037, with a median of $1,100,000, and spent an average of 33 days on market. Under contract means a buyer and seller have a signed agreement but the sale has not closed yet. These numbers move every week, so treat them as a snapshot, not a forecast.

This home was listed on August 25, 2026 at $999,999 and showed 53 days on market in that pull, with no price changes. That is below the recent median sale and longer than the average days on market for recent sales. With seller concessions offered, I think a buyer has room to talk terms.
