Search real estate in Nashville's 12 South neighborhood

12 South is a trendy Nashville neighborhood that has established itself as one of the more popular places to call home. Previously named one of the South’s best neighborhoods by Southern Living magazine, the combination of beautifully restored homes with the seemingly endless number of quaint little boutiques and cafes give 12 South a charming small-town look and feel that’s especially popular in a city like Nashville, TN.

Many homes for sale in 12 South are historic Victorian and Craftsman-style homes that boast an incredible amount of appeal and desirability. The quiet tree-lined streets and well-maintained yards give most 12 South homes terrific curb appeal, and the homes themselves truly speak for themselves in most cases. Smaller bungalows also have a significant presence in the 12 South area as well, and although each might not offer quite as much living space, you’ll be surprised at just how highly-sought after many of these original bungalow-style listings are by a wide range of today’s home buyers.
