Neely's Bend has a rural atmosphere just 15 miles away from the city
Tucked into a quiet loop of the Cumberland River, Neely's Bend is a unique neighborhood where you can own horses and still make it Downtown Nashville in under half an hour. This little pocket of Madison has a distinctly rural feel, with ranch-style brick homes on fenced acre lots and unpaved driveways, but it's far from cut off. You're minutes from the growing retail corridor on Gallatin Pike and a short drive from the Opryland and East Nashville entertainment hubs. If you're after wide-open space without giving up easy city access, this hidden corner of Nashville is worth a closer look.
Ranch-style homes and spacious country yards
Ranch-style brick homes are by far the most common housing style, often on multiacre, fully fenced lots. You also might see some newer custom-built houses, especially along the river. Single-story homes on an acre or two run from the upper $200,000s to the upper $500,000s, while modern builds and properties with sprawling yards range from the mid-$700,000s to $1.3 million. Prices tend to be higher than nearby Heron Walk and Madison, because you get larger yards.
There’s a rural feel out here, with unpaved driveways, slow two-lane roads and enough space to own horses. “To me, the best part of living down there is it’s the country part of Madison,” says Jackie Daniel, a local resident and business owner. “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.”
It's very common to see ranch-style homes in Neely's Bend.
Yards tend to be large and shaded by mature trees.

Peeler Park has hiking and horseback riding along the Cumberland River
Peeler Park is a large green space along the Cumberland River, spanning more than 630 acres. The park includes miles of paved and unpaved trails for walking, hiking and horseback riding. Joggers and cyclists share the scenery with model airplanes taking off from the park's remote-control airfield. The riverside setting also draws bird-watchers, and a public boat launch provides access to the river.
Peeler Park is right in the backyard for many Neely's Bend locals.
Peeler Park has large open spaces to enjoy some fresh air in Neely's Bend.

Less than 25 minutes from Opryland and East Nashville
Neely's Bend is tucked away, but you're still within a 25-minute drive of some of Nashville's biggest shopping and dining hubs. “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,” Daniel says. Here are some of the closest hubs:
Madison: Everyday essentials on Gallatin Pike, including local restaurants and Kroger, Aldi and Walmart, about 5 miles away
Opryland: A massive entertainment hub with the Opry Mills outlet mall, the iconic Grand Ole Opry and the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center, about 10 miles away

The tucked away location makes for slightly longer commutes
Neely's Bend Road is basically the only way into the neighborhood, and you can't cross the Cumberland River without driving at least 5 miles. There are a few WeGo bus stops, but this is a very car-dependent area, so expect a slightly longer commute thanks to the out-of-the-way location. Downtown Nashville is about 15 miles away, a trip that usually takes less than 30 minutes.
Neely's Bend Road is the main road in and out of the neighborhood.
There are a few bus stops as you head into Madison.
