Inside The Modernest WeHo: Nashville's New Modern Luxury Condo Community

Wedgewood-Houston has become one of Nashville's most talked-about neighborhoods, known for its galleries, studios, restaurants and walkable streets just minutes from downtown. Now it's getting a new kind of residential option.

The Modernest WeHo, at 1425 4th Avenue South, is a five-story condominium community with 129 residences, with delivery expected in early 2027. It's designed for buyers who want modern new construction, resort-style amenities and the freedom to live there full-time, part-time or rent it out.

Here's what to know about the community, what it offers and who it's a good fit for.

Key takeaways

• The Modernest WeHo is a 129-residence, five-story condo community at 1425 4th Ave S in Wedgewood-Houston, with delivery expected in early 2027.
• Residences include studios, one-, two- and three-bedroom homes and live-work layouts, starting in the $300s.
• The developer says every residence is short-term rental eligible, with in-house management available for owners.
• Amenities include a resort-style pool with cabanas, a fitness center with infrared sauna, a cold plunge, co-working space and a coffee bar.

The Team Behind the Building

The Modernest WeHo is developed by CA South Development in partnership with Franklin Rose Companies. The design comes from Studio APA, based in Los Angeles, and Nashville's Comma Design Works. Avenue Construction is building the project.

That pairing of a national design studio with a local design firm shows in the building's contemporary look, which is designed to fit the creative character of Wedgewood-Houston.

The Residences

The community offers a wide range of layouts:

1. Studios for investors or buyers who want a simple, low-maintenance Nashville base
2. One-bedroom homes that balance price with more living space
3. Two- and three-bedroom homes for full-time residents who want more room
4. Live-work layouts for owners who want a home and workspace in one

According to the developer, prices start in the $300s. Residences feature contemporary interiors, open layouts and private outdoor spaces.

Resort-Style Amenities

The amenity list is one of the community's biggest draws. According to the developer, residents will have access to:

• A resort-style pool and cabanas
• A fitness center with an infrared sauna
• A cold plunge
• Co-working space
• A coffee bar
• A five-star, hotel-style lobby

For a five-story building, that's an amenity package more often found in larger high-rise towers.

Live Full-Time, Part-Time or Rent It Out

Short-term rental flexibility sets The Modernest WeHo apart from many new Nashville developments. The developer states that every residence is 100% short-term rental eligible. Owners who choose to rent can use in-house hospitality management that handles bookings, guest communication, cleaning and maintenance.

The developer sums it up this way: "Stay when you want. Earn when you're away." Buyers planning to rent should still confirm current permit requirements with Metro Nashville before purchasing, since rules can change.

Life in Wedgewood-Houston

Wedgewood-Houston, often called WeHo, sits just south of downtown Nashville. It's known for its art galleries, creative studios and growing restaurant scene. The neighborhood is also home to Soho House Nashville and Geodis Park, home of Nashville SC.

For owners, that means walkable access to dining, culture and live sports, with downtown just minutes away.
