Location and Daily Life at The Braxton
The Braxton sits directly on the Cumberland River in Ashland City, Tennessee, offering a lifestyle that is genuinely hard to find anywhere else in Middle Tennessee. This 10-story luxury condominium community at 400 Warioto Way puts you on the water with resort-level amenities, all while being just 25 minutes from downtown Nashville.
The building occupies a prime position adjacent to the Harpeth Shoals Marina, which offers 142 covered boat slips in a protected cove on the Cumberland River. If you own a boat, kayak, or jet ski, your access point is essentially in your backyard. The marina also offers fuel service, making weekend river outings effortless.
Daily errands in Ashland City are straightforward. Downtown is just minutes away with grocery stores, restaurants, and the TriStar Ashland City Medical Center about a mile from the building. Riverbluff Park is a short walk and offers picnic areas, a boat ramp, soccer fields, tennis courts, disc golf, and pickleball. The Cumberland River Bicentennial Trail provides a scenic path for hiking and biking directly from the area.
Two developments are bringing additional energy to the Ashland City waterfront. The $33 million Ashland City River Port Project, a partnership between TDOT, Cheatham County, and Ingram Marine Group, broke ground in summer 2025 on a 40-acre multimodal freight hub at mile marker 162 on the Cumberland. This project is expected to generate jobs, tax revenue, and economic growth for the area with completion targeted for summer 2026. Additionally, Monell’s, the beloved Nashville family-style restaurant known for its Southern cooking, announced a second location at the Harbor House in Ashland City.
The Condos
The Braxton was designed by R. Chris Magill-Architects, Inc. and completed in 2008. The building features a distinctive architectural presence with arched windows, a symmetrical facade, and decorative roofline elements. The community consists of 136 units split between East and West towers, each rising 10 stories above the Cumberland River.
Floor plans range from 2-bedroom units starting around 1,182 square feet up to spacious 3-bedroom and 4-bedroom penthouses exceeding 3,100 square feet. Every unit includes a private balcony, and many feature expansive terraces of 300+ square feet with views of the Cumberland River, Sidney’s Bluff, or the marina.
Interior finishes vary by unit and any owner upgrades over the years. Common features across the building include gas fireplaces, open-concept living areas, high ceilings, and large windows designed to maximize natural light and river views. You will find a mix of hardwood, travertine, marble, and tile flooring depending on the specific unit. Kitchens typically include granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and peninsula bars with pantry space. Primary bedrooms feature walk-in closets and bathrooms with walk-in showers.
The building is secured with gated entry, a covered drive entrance, fire alarm and sprinkler systems, security cameras, and front desk personnel. Each unit comes with assigned parking spaces (typically two) and a dedicated storage unit on the ground floor. An elevator provides access to all floors, which is a significant advantage for accessibility.

Amenities
The Braxton operates more like a resort than a typical condo building. The amenity package is one of the most extensive you will find at any residential community in Middle Tennessee, and the HOA fee covers a significant portion of your monthly utility expenses.
The centerpiece is a saltwater swimming pool with a hot tub, open seasonally for residents. Two fully equipped fitness centers are available year-round. Indoor common spaces include a media room, a library, a game room, a club room with bar area, and multiple party rooms that can be reserved for private events. The Braxton also serves as an event venue for meetings, retreats, and celebrations including micro-weddings.
Outside the building, residents enjoy a private island accessible from the property with walking trails, raised-bed community gardens, a fire pit, and a hog cooker for outdoor gatherings. A dog park is on-site for pet owners. The adjacent Harpeth Shoals Marina provides 142 covered boat slips and fuel service for residents who enjoy boating, fishing, skiing, kayaking, or paddle boarding on the Cumberland River.
The HOA fee structure at The Braxton is higher than a typical condo because it covers an unusually broad range of expenses. Depending on the unit, monthly dues range from approximately $531 to $928 and typically include cable TV, high-speed internet, gas, water, sewer, trash pickup, exterior maintenance, grounds maintenance, pool and amenity maintenance, and in many units, insurance. When you factor in the utilities covered, the effective additional cost for amenities is significantly lower than it appears at first glance.
