grace

Perched just across the river from downtown Nashville, this majestic home has truly borne witness to this great city’s rise. Built almost twenty years before the city’s Parthenon was constructed at the World’s Fair in 1897, 504 Russell St. has stood bravely and proudly through The Great Fire of 1916 and The Great Depression. It watched as Tennessee ratified the 19th Amendment and granted women the right to vote. It was here for the struggle for Civil Rights. It saw the birth of the Grand Old Opry, as Nashville became a bastion for musicians, artists, and other creatives, and more than one has called it home.

*A testament to this home’s storied past, an original section of wallpaper remains preserved to museum quality in the bar.

A Victorian Italianate masterpiece marrying classic Southern character with modern conveniences, this historic home has been tastefully and lovingly updated while maintaining 19th century charm. With soaring 14’ ceilings, refined craftsmanship, and original and reclaimed hardwood floors, this home is flooded with natural light. Spaces to entertain abound, inside and out. A second master upstairs opens up to an enormous balcony with incredible downtown views. A breathtaking open chef’s kitchen with high-end appliances, in-law/au pair suite with private entrance, and detached two-car garage with abundant storage space make this home a truly peaceful retreat in the center of the city.
