Historic Sylvan Park is located minutes from Vanderbilt University and St. Thomas Hospital, and as a result, demand for this neighborhood’s homes has soared in recent years. Sylvan Park features homes built from the late 1800s to the late 1940s, including small cottages as well as impressive Tudors and sprawling Victorians. McCabe Golf Course runs through the heart of the neighborhood, and the main shopping area features great restaurants and nightspots, such as Café Nonna, Park Café, and McCabe’s Pub.
Sylvan Heights is the neighborhood adjacent to Sylvan Park that features a small, diverse community with a wide range of small cottages and modest matchbox houses as well as the incredible California-style modern residences of Nevada Heights that boast impressive views of downtown Nashville. Sylvan Heights is located near the Parthenon at Centennial Park and the Centennial Sports Complex and is also the home to the Nashville Ballet School of Dance and Climb Nashville, an indoor climbing gymnasium.
