Charming East Nashville cottage (and DETACHED MUSIC STUDIO!) with thoughtful updates throughout and an incredible detached flex space full of opportunity. Nestled beneath a canopy of mature trees, this inviting home features a welcoming covered front porch, fresh landscaping, and a beautifully balanced exterior with warm wood accents. Recent improvements include a brand new roof, new vapor barrier in the crawlspace, updated fixtures, and new carpet, making this home feel fresh and move-in ready. Major systems including plumbing, electrical, and HVAC were updated in 2021. A rare bonus: a detached studio space with a full bathroom and professional acoustic treatments by Josh Niles, including acoustic paneling and a ceiling cloud, creating an inspiring setup for musicians, song writers, creatives, podcasting, or remote work. *Studio square footage (549) noted as detached square footage in the MLS. The fully fenced backyard, garden shed, and spacious patio offers privacy and space to entertain outdoors. Conveniently located near some of East Nashville’s favorite restaurants (.4 mi to Mas Tacos) , this property blends character, functionality, and flexibility in one compelling package.
