Suburban living close to Nashville

Along the curving Cumberland River in central Tennessee, Greenwood’s tree-lined streets belie its status as a quiet neighborhood. It’s quiet indeed, but as a component of East Nashville it retains the identity that defines “Music City” and the surrounding area. Murals are scattered across the area, with the creativity of residents shining through and feeding into the state capital, with the city a hub for artists past and present like Johnny Cash, the Allman Brothers and more. “It’s the creative focal point of Nashville,” says Michael Gomez, the broker and owner of Hive Nashville LLC.

Food with international influences

For a New Orleans flair, stop into Spicy Boy’s. It might look like a house, but inside patrons can find booths and a bar or head out the back door for a patio seat. The establishment’s sister shack Icy Boy’s is a minute or two’s walk down McFerrin Avenue and onto Cleveland Street, where the spicy food can be chased with a snowball designed to retain its syrup from a menu of dozens of options. “There’s The Pharmacy, which is one of the best burger joints there is,” Gomez says. “You also have Once Upon a Time in France. The area’s full of really cool places.” Other local offerings include Asian fusion at Nomzilla, craft-made cocktails at Pearl Diver and an expansive wine selection at Love and Exile, while anyone craving Mexican food can find more tacos at Mas Tacos. For grocery needs, Publix is just across the northeastern boundary near Greenwood Avenue, and Main Street on the eastern border has plenty of nightlife options. Get supplies for furry friends at Spot’s Pet Supply & Dog Wash, which offers products for all kinds of small animals.

Schools featuring highly-rated athletic programs

All three are part of Metro Nashville Public Schools, which is rated at a B-minus on Niche, ranks as the most diverse district in the entire state and is named the 30th-best district for athletes in Tennessee.

Parks near main thoroughfares

Close to Greenwood’s southeastern tip lies Frederick Douglass Park. Despite Interstate 24 on its western side, the rest is surrounded by residences and features plenty of outdoor offerings for visitors. Start up a pickup game of soccer or baseball on the sports’ respective fields within the park’s boundaries, head to the playground or enjoy a mostly open space perfect for tossing a football or frisbee, going for a walk or simply taking in the outdoors. East Park lies just south outside of Greenwood, while Titans fans can also catch a game at Nissan Stadium just minutes from Greenwood’s southernmost point.

Interstates link Greenwood beyond Nashville

Interstate 24 runs to the south of Greenwood, while Route 31E, also known as Ellington Parkway, hugs the western border and parallels Douglass Park. Residents of Greenwood are just a short drive over the Cumberland River away from the Tennessee State Capitol and the rest of Nashville’s boundless creativity.
