2208 Elliott Ave #A is one of the 12 South homes for sale right now, listed at $799,000. It is a 2019 contemporary with four bedrooms, four full baths, a bonus loft, and 1,918 square feet by tax record, spread over three stories. What caught my eye is how much living space it packs in at this price, and where it sits. The listing places it between 8th South and 12 South, which puts two of the most walkable parts of the city close by. Every bedroom has its own full bath, there is covered parking, and the home was built in 2019, so you are not taking on an older house. I'm Jason Gruner with Coldwell Banker Southern Realty, and I track 12 South Nashville every week. Here is how I read this one.

Inside the home

The listing describes high end finishes and a modern design throughout, and the layout works in layers. The main level is the smallest at 350 square feet, with one bedroom and a full bath. That makes it an easy spot for guests or a home office, since it sits apart from the rest of the bedrooms.

Kitchen with white cabinets, stainless appliances, a gas cooktop, and eat in dining at 2208 Elliott Ave #A in 12 South Nashville

The second level is the main living floor. The living area is about 14 by 15 and flows into the dining space and the kitchen, which is about 12 by 13 with room for eat in dining. The kitchen has a gas cooktop, white cabinets, and stainless appliances, and the living room has big windows and a ceiling fan. This floor also has a bedroom with its own full bath.

Bedroom suite with a vaulted ceiling, hardwood floors, and a pendant light at 2208 Elliott Ave #A in 12 South Nashville

The third level has two more bedrooms, each with a full bath, plus a bonus loft of about 10 by 10. The largest bedroom is a suite of about 17 by 13. The listing does not say which floor it is on, so I will confirm that on a tour rather than guess. The loft gives you a flexible spot for a desk, a reading corner, or a TV room. With four bedrooms and four full baths, nobody has to share a bathroom, which is rare at this price in 12 South real estate. The listing calls it well maintained and move in ready.

Outdoor space and the lot

This is a small lot, 0.02 acres by plat, and that is typical for a horizontal property regime home in this part of Nashville. HPR means the land is shared under a regime while each owner holds their own home, so you are not buying a big yard here. The listing describes the lot as level and private, and the association covers grounds maintenance, so the outside is lower effort than a typical single family yard.

The outdoor space you do get is a private covered deck off an upper level, a good spot for coffee in the morning. Parking is a real plus on this side of town. You get a two space attached carport, so there is no hunting for a spot on the street when you come home. The home sits back from Elliott Ave, and you reach it by the shared walkway. The listing shows both long term and short term rentals allowed under its rental policy, which is worth knowing whatever your plans are.

Why Elliott Ave works in 12 South

2208 Elliott Ave #A is in the 37204 ZIP code and inside my Realtracs "12 South" search. The listing remarks place the home between 8th South and 12 South and mention grocery stores, neighborhood coffee shops, and local restaurants like ML Rose close by. They also mention a short walk to Zanies Comedy Club and easy access to the boutiques and dining of 12 South. That gives Elliott Ave Nashville a different feel from the quieter side streets west of 12th. You are on the 8th Avenue side of the neighborhood, with two commercial strips within reach. 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 $800,000 with four bedrooms, this is one of very few.

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

One thing I like about 12 South is how many ways there are to get around it. In 2023 the city finished the 12th Avenue South Complete and Green Street project. It added bike lanes that are physically protected from traffic along the whole route, safer crossings for people on foot, better bus stops, and green stormwater features. The project connects the 12th South, Edgehill, and Gulch areas and ties into Wedgewood Avenue and Division Street. WeGo's Route 17 bus runs along 12th Avenue South between downtown and the Hillsboro Transit Center in Green Hills. By car, downtown is roughly two to three miles north, depending on where you start. Belmont University sits right along the neighborhood's west side, near Belmont Boulevard and Wedgewood Avenue. For a lot of the people I work with, that is the appeal of 12 South Nashville. It feels like a small neighborhood, but you are close to the rest of the city whenever you need it.

The 12 South market right now

As of October 23, 2026, my Realtracs "12 South" search shows 83 homes for sale and 9 under contract (6 still taking showings and 3 not). Over the last three months, 41 homes closed. Recent sales averaged $1,294,780, with a median of $1,100,000, and spent an average of 32 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 26, 2026 at $799,000 and showed 51 days on market in that pull, with no price changes. That is well below the recent median sale and longer than the average days on market for recent sales. In my view, that gives a buyer room to ask questions and talk terms.
