Nashville, TN – May 2026: Holder Properties, with the assistance of its capital advisor, Patterson Real Estate Advisory Group, successfully closed construction financing from Aegon Asset Management for The Cecilia, a 37-home, Class A luxury build-to-rent townhome community located at the intersection of Martin Street and Gray Street in the heart of Nashville’s Wedgewood-Houston neighborhood.
The Cecilia is a bespoke, urban infill build-to-rent development situated within Wedgewood-Houston, a former industrial corridor transformed into a highly walkable, mixed-use district anchored by marquee projects such as AJ Capital’s 18-acre Wedgewood Village and Nashville Warehouse Co., attracting globally recognized tenants including Soho House, Hermès, Apple Music, and Live Nation. The neighborhood benefits from exceptional lifestyle amenities, including a dense concentration of chef-driven restaurants, art galleries, and creative office users.
The community will consist of three- and four-bedroom townhomes averaging approximately 2,100 square feet, each featuring two-car attached garages, private outdoor spaces, and thoughtfully designed interior finishes. The project delivers a differentiated rental offering that combines the scale, privacy, and quality of for-sale townhomes with the flexibility and convenience of a professionally managed rental community.
“The Cecilia was designed to offer the space, privacy, and finish level of for-sale townhomes, delivered in a professionally managed rental format,” said Robert Holder, CEO and Managing Partner of Holder Properties. “It’s a differentiated product that reflects how renters want to live in Nashville’s urban core today.”
