Quiet AND views.... SIGN ME UP!
September 30, 2025 - Review from Apartments.comMarc was an awesome tour guide, and Sarah was super friendly and welcoming. The views of the tree canopy throughout Nashville are super cool! Not many places have a pool that can see so much of the city. I really like the style of finishes in the units. They feel modern but not overly flashy. Because The Sylvan is off the major roads it feels (and sounds) secluded but still has quick easy access to downtown and some nearby restaurants and shopping. It really is a picturesque spot... so much so ...that I didn't take more photos during my tour! I'll definitely be back when I get closer to my move date.Read More

January 30, 2024 - Review from Apartments.comNice area, not many maintenance issues. Just loud upstairs neighbors. Management team is super nice and will tend to your needs. Only downside is rent is overpriced and they wouldn’t let us renew with the new rate listed on their site.Property Manager Responded
