2017 Hackberry Ln

Tucked away on a rare .41-acre lot in the heart of East Nashville, this storybook cottage offers the best of both worlds: peaceful, private surroundings just one block from Eastland Ave favorites like Noko, Jeni’s, Two Ten Jack, and Rosepepper. A charming wet-weather stream runs through the property with a sweet footbridge, giving the backyard an English garden feel that is hard to find in the city. Inside, historic charm meets major updates. Original hardwood floors have just been refinished, the entire interior has fresh paint, and new light fixtures add a soft, modern touch while preserving the home’s classic character. In 2018, the home underwent a substantial renovation, including a full kitchen remodel, replacement of the roof, windows, siding, and HVAC system, the addition of a deck and screened-in porch, and replacement of the bridge over the stream. The exterior was also repainted, giving the home its signature pink cottage curb appeal. These improvements provide the peace of mind of modern systems while keeping the warmth and personality of an older home. Whether you are dreaming of a garden retreat, a quiet place to unwind, or a home that feels like a private escape without sacrificing walkability, this East Nashville gem delivers a rare combination of charm, location, and space.
