Wedgewood-Houston

Welcome to Wedgewood-Houston

Wedgewood-Houston — WeHo to locals — is the neighborhood I show clients who want to be where Nashville is going, not just where it's been. A decade ago this was a quiet industrial pocket south of downtown. Today it's one of the city's most creative, fast-evolving districts: old warehouses turned into galleries, breweries, distilleries, and design studios, with new condos and townhomes rising between them. If you want energy, art, and upside, this is the conversation.

Who Lives Here?

Creatives, young professionals, designers, and a growing number of investors who saw what happened to East Nashville and The Gulch and want in early on WeHo. It skews younger, urban, and design-minded — people who'd rather be a short walk from the First Saturday art crawl, a brewery, and a great coffee shop than have a big yard in the suburbs. There's a real maker-and-gallery culture here that gives the neighborhood its identity.

On Price, We Ho Has Appreciated Fast

The median is sitting around $644,000 as of mid-2026, up roughly 17% year over year, with condos in the high $600Ks. Homes around 2,500 square feet or less generally run from the low $500Ks to the upper $800Ks, while larger and new-construction properties climb from the low $900Ks past $3 million. It moves quickly too — homes here have been going under contract in around five weeks, faster than the national pace.

What I Tell Clients

You're buying location and trajectory, so understand exactly what you're getting. Most of the inventory is newer condos, townhomes, and contemporary infill rather than historic homes, and quality varies building to building — I help buyers separate the well-built from the merely trendy. Proximity to the core retail and arts strip drives value, and so does being walkable to downtown, The Gulch, and 12 South, all of which are close. If you're buying as an investment or for resale upside, we look hard at the specific block and what's being developed around it.

The Trade-Offs

It's still transitioning, so it can feel uneven block to block — polished in spots, industrial in others — and the amenities are growing rather than fully built out. Lots are small and parking is urban-tight. That unevenness is exactly why prices still have room, but it means you want a guide who knows which corners have arrived and which are next.

My Take

WeHo is one of the most exciting bets in Nashville right now for the right buyer — someone who wants to live in the energy and believes in where the neighborhood is headed. It's not for everyone, but for the creative, urban, forward-looking client, few places in the city are more compelling. Let's tour it and I'll show you the blocks I'd put my own money on.
