Station 40 is in Sylvan Heights, West Nashville — a neighborhood that's been getting more attention as Nashville has grown. It's not downtown, not East Nashville, but it's in a genuinely good spot that gets walkable reviews and sits close to The Nations and West End. For remote workers moving to Nashville who want a modern building without paying Midtown prices, Station 40 comes up regularly. Here's what it's actually like.
Location
Sylvan Heights is one of West Nashville's more established neighborhoods. You're close to The Nations which has become one of Nashville's better spots for restaurants and bars, and you're about 10 minutes to Vanderbilt and Midtown. Walk score of 85 means you can actually get to coffee shops, restaurants, and a farmers market on foot — the Saturday Richland Park Farmers Market is a short walk away. For a city that's mostly car-dependent, that kind of walkability matters.
Pricing
Studios start around $1,241/month, one bedrooms from roughly $1,358, two bedrooms up to $3,185 for larger units. That's competitive for Nashville — Station 40 is generally priced below Midtown equivalents while offering similar or better amenity packages. Units include in-unit washer/dryer, wood-style floors, high ceilings, gourmet kitchens, and private balconies on most floor plans.
Amenities
Station 40 has a 24-hour fitness center with free weights, cardio equipment, spin bikes, rowing machines, and a separate group fitness area. There's a coworking space — relevant if you're working remotely and need a change of scenery from your apartment. Dog park, gaming courtyard, guest suite, valet trash service, secure package lockers, and controlled access round out the amenity list. The coworking space is a standout feature for remote workers specifically.
