Front exterior of 2500B 9th Ave S, a two story home with a covered front porch and white picket fence, one of the 12 South homes for sale in Nashville

2500B 9th Ave S is one of the 12 South homes for sale right now, listed at $999,000. It is a 2010 home with three bedrooms, three full baths, one half bath, and 2,494 square feet by professional measurement, spread over three levels including a finished basement. It is an attached home in a horizontal property regime, which means it shares a 0.44 acre lot with its neighbor, and the listing shows no HOA fees. What caught my eye is the location at the end of Gilmore Ave and the lower level, which has its own entrance and full bath. 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 main level is about 884 square feet and holds the living room, the kitchen, the dining area, and a half bath. The listing shows the living room at 14 by 16, the kitchen at 12 by 12, and the dining room at 10 by 12, and the plan is open from the front door back to the kitchen.

The kitchen has granite countertops and a peninsula with seating, and the listing says all appliances stay, including the washer and dryer. Plantation shutters run throughout, and the seller lists a new roof in 2024, a tankless Rinnai water heater, and a Carrier HVAC system.

Upstairs, the second floor has two bedrooms and two full baths. The primary suite is up here, and the listing says the primary bedroom and bath were recently updated, with a large walk in closet and built ins.

Open living room with hardwood floors, staircase and dining area beyond at 2500B 9th Ave S in 12 South Nashville

The lower level is the part I'd want to see first on a tour. It adds 726 finished square feet with a bedroom, a full bath, and a rec room listed at 14 by 28. It has its own private entrance, and the listing says the projector, screen, and surround sound stay, so it can work as a media room or a guest suite. The seller notes the space could be rented separately, and long term rentals are allowed per the listing, so ask me to help you confirm the rules before you plan on it.

Outdoor space and the lot

This is the B unit on a 0.44 acre shared lot, so the land is not a private yard in the way a detached home's would be. The listing describes the back yard as park like common green space that is not being developed, and the photos show mature trees across the back.

Off the back of the house there is a deck, and the listing mentions a fire pit in the yard. The front has a covered porch behind a white picket fence. For parking, there is a covered carport plus extra parking in front and in back of the home, which is a real plus on this side of 12 South.

Why 9th Ave S works in 12 South

9th Ave S Nashville runs parallel to 12th Ave S on the east side of the neighborhood, in the 37204 ZIP code. The listing directions go south on 12th Ave, left on Gilmore Ave, and right at the end of Gilmore onto 9th Ave, with the home immediately on the left. The seller says it is a three block walk to the 12 South restaurants and shops and minutes to downtown. That is a big part of why people call this a walkable Nashville neighborhood. It sits inside my Realtracs "12 South" search, in the 12th South subdivision.

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.
