Situated north across the Cumberland River, the Bordeaux Area is surrounded by rolling hills and lush green spaces. This tight-knit community offers a suburban lifestyle that’s still close to downtown. “The Bordeaux Area is one of the few places in Nashville that still has affordable housing options,” says Steven Russell, Realtor with Reliant Realty Era Powered, who has been in the industry for 19 years. “It’s only 10 minutes from downtown and offers not only modest 1950s homes but also has seen a lot of interest from developers with new builds popping up,” Russell says. Bordeaux has long been home to independent and family-owned businesses, restaurants and churches. In the wake of this new interest, the community has engaged residents in the Bordeaux Initiative, a revitalization effort by Rebuilding Together to preserve affordable homeownership and revitalize community spaces.

Homes

The Bordeaux Area is lined with streets that spread into cul-de-sacs and display a mix of traditional, Split-Level and ranch-style homes. Other streets consist entirely of contemporary new builds. In contrast, CityBluffs, a new mixed-use development featuring condominiums and rental units, features sleek architecture and rooftops where residents can enjoy views of the Nashville area. The median price for a single-family home hovers around $524,500, boasting median lot sizes of just under a quarter of an acre. Modern condominium prices sell in the $500,000s, while townhouses can go from the $500,000s to the $700,000s. Single-family homes vary significantly in price, ranging from the mid $300,000s for a 1930s two-bedroom bungalow to the upper $800,000s for a three-bedroom, modern build with stone accents.

Ted Rhodes Golf Course, part of the park, features a public 18-hole course and a driving range. The Blue Cross Healthy Place, a fully renovated sports facility, allows visitors to enjoy the area’s lush greenery.
