Default House-like condos in Nashville (East Nashville, Downtown, Vanderbilt, someplace with sidewalks, please!)--under 200k

I currently live in Washington DC, in a nice little 1 bedroom condo (which I rent) that's about 700 square feet. What I love about it is the building--it's in this tiny little complex where each building is only 3 stories and has only 6 units. It reminds me of living in a house--there's a window in every room, and on both sides of the condo, so you get a nice cross-breeze in the summer.

I've been looking at condos around Nashville, where I'll be going to school next year, but it seems like there are a lot of high rises (which, for me, is anything over 4 stories) and then places like the Villager, which doesn't look altogether that nice. Am I missing something? Are there small, house-like condos (NOT townhouses) that are reminiscent of my DC experience?

Suggestions, please! My budget is under 200k, but the cheaper the better...2 bedrooms would be AWESOME, but I can settle for 1..

This is definitely the exception, not the rule, I'd jump on this ASAP if you are serious about buying a condo: Unit 403 at the Encore RIGHT DOWNTOWN is listed at $151,900. THAT IS A STEAL!

Edit: Okay, I was excited that I found a cheap condo, totally forgot you wanted one house-like. The Encore isn't house-like at all, but it's a GREAT steal.

That is a huge building--NOT what I was looking for.

Sorry, I posted before I saw the edit! It looks like a nice condo, though, if you like big buildings... any other suggestions? Anybody know anything about Longview Condominiums (3314 Long Blvd)?

Looks like they might be near Murphy Road between 440 and West End. Nice area, handy to Green Hills and downtown.
