Building description
the Rhodes Building at 521 Old Hickory Blvd, a classic mixed-use building in the heart of Old Hickory’s tight-knit, riverfront community. With four commercial suites, two apartments and three rear storage units, the property has the feel of a true neighborhood hub where local businesses know their customers by name.
Unit 525 (1,170 SF) is set up as a small office suite with multiple private offices, central hallway, break room, utility room and restroom—ideal for professional services, trades, counseling, insurance or any “back-of-house” business that still wants a convenient, visible village location.
Both units lease at $15/SF NNN plus approx. $2.25/SF CAM with flexible terms (minimum 12-month lease), making them approachable options for mom-and-pop operators and emerging small businesses. Three 10’ x 10’ storage units at the rear can be added for extra inventory or equipment.
Old Hickory offers a steady base of local residents, historic character and easy access to nearby neighborhoods, giving tenants a loyal customer pool without big-city congestion.
Please do not visit or enter the property without an appointment. All tours must be scheduled in advance and accompanied by the broker. Both units will be available January 1, 2026.
