Construction is ongoing at a 154-home development in the North Nashville area that is set to include a wellness-focused resident clubhouse, pool, walking path, greenway access and more.
The $95 million project, called "The Lanes," is one of the largest private developments in the neighborhood and abuts the eastern-most section of Tennessee State University's campus. The primary address of the development is 2500 W Heiman St.
The project is spearheaded by local developers Edward Tinsley, Jared Bradley and Eric Russell. Tinsley and Bradley have worked on other Nashville developments together in recent years, and Russell is principal at Big Plan Holdings, a real estate development firm that launched in 2020. The team purchased the 12-acre property in 2022 and began construction last year.
Thoughtful neighborhood design was a priority for the development team, which spent time planning how the property would contribute to the overall neighborhood -- including with upgraded sidewalks, street parking and other infrastructure surrounding the site.
"We want the front porch of this project to be something that's beautiful for the neighborhood," Tinsley said.
The plot of land was previously owned by a different development team with plans for a more dense, multifamily project. An LLC tied to Tinsley, Bradley and Russell purchased the land in December 2022 for $7.7 million. The team worked with Metro Nashville to get the land rezoned to allow for the single family subdivision.
The single family homes will be priced between $690,000 and $800,000 to start and include a range of three- to-four-bedroom floorplans. In addition to the 154 homes, the project will consist of a clubhouse with spa-like amenities like saunas and cold plunge tubs. A fitness center, resort-style pool, coworking space, community garden and one-mile walking path will also be included.
A railroad borders the eastern side of the parcel, and the developers plan to add a greenway along it, connecting Heiman Street to a route that could eventually lead along the tracks to the Ted Rhodes Golf Course and Cumberland River Greenway, Tinsley said.
Each home will be move-in ready, complete with custom interior design by Nashville-based firm Murphy Maude Interiors.
"We've taken a lot of care to make it feel like you're stepping into a high-design place," said Leslie Murphy, founder of Murphy Maude.
