A rare gem in the Music City
Neely’s Bend mostly remains an untouched gem in an otherwise growing and urbanized city. Named for the “bend” in the Cumberland River, this Nashville neighborhood consists of acres of pastures and woodlands accessible only with a narrow two-lane road. Typical scenes here include farm-themed weddings set against a backdrop of the rolling, forested hills and the Nashville skyline. Or horseback riders and joggers taking to some park trails as remote-controlled aircraft buzz in the distance. “To me, the best part of living down there is it’s the country part of Madison,” says Jackie Daniel, who owns the Barn in the Bend property with her husband David and who lives in lower Neely’s Bend. “It’s just the wide open spaces. It’s like nobody believes you can live this close to the city and be in the country, too. The location is excellent; to be able to feel like you’re out in the country, but yet can easily access all the shops, eateries and the downtown environment.”
The Cumberland River twists and turns through the Neely's Bend area.

Craftsmen, ramblers and spacious rural lots
Many homes in Neely’s Bend date back to the first half of the 20th century and have undergone renovations to enhance their appeal. Small homes with Craftsman bungalow and minimal Traditional designs are common on the neighborhood’s north end. Blankets of brown foliage add to the charm of these blocks during the fall and winter months. The rest of Neely’s Bend has multi-acre lots and larger houses with ranch-style and Traditional features. “I think the cool thing about it is some of the history,” says Eddie Rockensock, a Realtor with Benchmark Realty, about the ages of the homes. “It’s got something for everybody.” The smaller homes mainly cost between $200,000 and $450,000, while larger properties with greater acreage can run from $550,000 to approximately $1 million.

Air, exercise and eagle sightings at Peeler Park
Many here go to Peeler Park for some air and exercise. The green space features a nearly 2-mile greenway that runs along the Cumberland and through dense woodland. Cyclists and joggers moving along the path might spot one of the remote-controlled planes from the Park’s RC Airfield. The park is also a birding spot, where some occasionally catch glimpses of a bald eagle. The park has a boat launch for those looking to get on the river. Other nearby recreational sites include the Hermitage Golf Course, which Golf Digest recognizes as one of the top playing grounds in the state. The golf club boasts two 18-hole and championship-level courses. The Urban Air Trampoline and Adventure Park provides more activities for children and teens.
