With two rooftop decks for entertaining and abundant street parking along 2nd Ave. S, this home is made for entertaining. Not much of a cook, thats okay! One of the best things about this home is its phenomenal location. Wedgewood-Houston has become one of Nashville's most talked-about dining destinations, and all of it is within an easy stroll. Sample Chef Gene Kato's buzzy Japanese newcomer Momotaro, indulge in handmade pasta and wood-fired pizza at Chef Lee Wolen's Alla Vita, or settle in for a classic French dinner at Pastis, the James Beard-pedigreed brasserie's. Grab a coffee — and later, a cocktail — at Cafe Babu around the corner, and soak up the scene at Soho House Nashville. Longtime favorites like Iggy's, Bastion, and Mercado are close by too, with Geodis Park just minutes away.
