Terrazzo Condos

NASHVILLE’S PREMIER LEED-CERTIFIED HIGH-RISE IN THE GULCH

Location and Lifestyle at Terrazzo

Terrazzo stands at 700 12th Avenue South in the heart of The Gulch, Nashville’s most walkable urban neighborhood. This 15-story high-rise was the city’s first and only LEED-certified green building when it opened in 2009, and it remains one of the most sought-after addresses in Downtown Nashville.

The building’s location puts you within walking distance of everything The Gulch has to offer. STK Steakhouse operates on the ground floor. Grab coffee at Crema, dinner at Adele’s, or drinks at L.A. Jackson’s rooftop bar, all without getting in your car. The 12South shopping district is a short walk south, and Lower Broadway is just minutes north.

For commuters, I-40 and I-65 are easily accessible via 12th Avenue or Demonbreun Street. The building’s central location means most downtown offices are within a 10-minute drive, and many residents walk or bike to work in the nearby office towers.

What sets Terrazzo apart from newer buildings is the established community feel. With only 109 units across 15 floors, residents know their neighbors. The building has maintained its appeal for over 15 years because of this intimate scale combined with its prime location.

The Building and Residences

Terrazzo features a contemporary design with classic lines that has aged well since 2009. The exterior combines stone and brick with extensive glass, giving the building its distinctive look on the Nashville skyline. Four floors of retail and dining space anchor the building at street level, with residential units on floors 5 through 15.

The 109 condominiums range from efficient one-bedroom units around 884 square feet to expansive two-level penthouses exceeding 2,500 square feet. Standard ceiling heights run 11’4″, and the floor-to-ceiling windows flood units with natural light while offering views of downtown, Midtown, or the surrounding hills.

Interior finishes vary by unit but typically include hardwood or bamboo flooring, granite or quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and gas cooking. Every unit has at least one private terrace, a feature that inspired the building’s Italian name meaning “terrace.” Many units include in-unit washer and dryer connections, and all have central air with geothermal heating.

Floor plans include one-bedroom plus den configurations (ideal for home offices), standard two-bedroom layouts, and larger two and three-bedroom penthouses. Corner units offer the most dramatic views with windows on multiple exposures. The building includes secure garage parking with most units receiving one or two assigned spaces.
