Fifteen-foot ceilings. Original 1871 brick. And a private covered terrace almost no one else at Werthan has. Unit 356 measures 994 square feet on paper and lives far larger, because at fifteen feet the ceiling does as much work here as the floor plan. Arched factory windows and a transom door pour light across wood floors and down an eighteen-foot living and kitchen run. Timber beams, painted steel, and exposed spiral ductwork overhead. Interior walls stop short of the ceiling so nothing interrupts the height. Both bedrooms are true suites. The primary spans 15'6" x 12'7" with aged plank floors, an arched brick niche with floating shelves, a walk-in closet, and private bath. The second runs 13'8" x 11'10" with two large walk-in closets and its own full bath, a genuine second primary for a roommate, guest, or office. Three walk-in closets in all, rare in a loft this size. The kitchen lines the brick wall with granite counters, stainless appliances, and full-height cabinetry. In-unit laundry and keypad entry. Refreshed throughout: new HVAC in 2025, fresh paint, new chandelier and pendants, new mirrors and vanity lighting in both baths, new stainless kitchen faucet, new bath hardware, and antique brass switch and outlet plates. The terrace separates this one (one of the largest at Werthan). Deep, covered, framed by original concrete columns and weathered brick, with room for a full sectional and a dining set, opening to the landscaped courtyard with the historic Werthan water tower beyond. Rare at this scale here. It's addtional outdoor living space. The community delivers the rest: two saltwater pools, fitness center and yoga studio, bocce court, cabana with outdoor kitchen, courtyards, and gated parking. Steps to the Nashville Farmers' Market, Neuhoff, Rolf and Daughters, and First Horizon Park, downtown a mile south. Oracle's planned pedestrian bridge will land at Neuhoff on Taylor Street, crossing the Cumberland to the East Bank and Oracle's new campus.
