Melrose

Friendly Urban Lifestyle
A quickly developing hotspot, Melrose is a small walkable neighborhood with a friendly vibe. It is situated south of downtown, and just east of the 12 South neighborhood. With plenty of great restaurants and places to shop, Melrose is proving itself a great place for young professionals and families to call home. Many of its residents enjoy walking the “mainstreet", Franklin Pike, to spend time shopping, eating, or just strolling. Southwest of town is Sevier Park which offers lovely greenspace for people who want to enjoy a respite from all of the nearby action. At Sevier Park, you will find a scenic walking path featuring a vast lawn and creek.

The bars and restaurants in Melrose include a few destinations that should not be overlooked. These include The Sutler Saloon, Siena, M.L. Rose Craft Beer & Burgers, Monells Cafe, Frothy Monkey, and Santa’s Pub. Restaurants in the area include Las Palmas, Dolce Vita Pizza, The Urban Juicer, and Urban Grub. Melrose is a great place to live if you are looking for an urban and friendly lifestyle.

Melrose — 8.8/10 Rating (based on 12 neighborhood reviews)
8 South is the busy street in front of the complex, which is your typical busy street but has good Nashville restaurants on it such as ML Rose, Sinema, and The Sutler as well as a Kroger, Publix, Chickfila, etc.

The neighborhood behind the apartment is amazing. So walkable and so many beautiful houses in the neighborhood. So many restaurants and things to do in 12 South which is just a short walk away. I love walking the neighborhood and walking to dinner/drinks in 12 South. It is the best!

Lots of restaurants within walking distance and they are really starting to build the area up. Short drive to other areas like 12 south, the gulch, and broadway

Melrose includes 8th south where there are awesome restaurants (Hattie B's Hot Chicken, Smiling Elephant Thai, Mangia Italian, also Chick-fil-A lol ). 4 blocks up the street is 12th South which is a really cute street/area with restaurants, shops, etc. I walk at Sevier Park which is also on 12th South almost every day and it is a perfect spot to walk/picnic/etc.

Very urban feeling neighborhood next to a good handful of restaurant, super close to the interstate and other major thoroughfares as well as campus. Management takes security of garage/residents seriously.

Melrose is really close to all of the things I need. I go to a gym near here, it is close to Belmont, and close to the church I attend. It is right off of some neighborhoods and you can take a walk to 12 south if you desire. It is a busy road to live on, but I do not notice the noise.
