Historic Edgefield sits just across the Cumberland River from downtown Nashville and holds the distinction of being the first Nashville neighborhood listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Its streets are lined with Victorian-era homes dating to the late 1800s and early 1900s, including Queen Annes with turrets, Italianates with ornate roof details, and Craftsman bungalows, many of which retain original hardwood floors and stained-glass windows.
The neighborhood is one of the most walkable on Nashville's east side, with downtown just a couple of miles away by car, bike, or bus, and the John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge offers a direct bike route across the river.
Five Points, East Nashville's dining and live-music hub, is an easy walk from most of Edgefield, and Nissan Stadium sits about a mile away for game days and concerts.
That combination of historic character, walkability, and proximity to downtown has made Edgefield one of the pricier neighborhoods on this side of the river, with renovated homes commanding a premium over less central East Nashville pockets.
Renters drawn here are typically looking for architectural character and a short commute over newer, larger-scale apartment living. Apartment List lets you compare Historic Edgefield rentals with nearby East Nashville neighborhoods to weigh that historic charm against the cost.
