    This is an absolutely charming storybook home. Its been lovingly renovated and meticulously maintained over the past 8 years and now it's time to find the next good steward. This is a light, bright space and the current owner has spared no expense making thoughtful renovations throughout: the kitchen has been opened up and modernized with new cabinetry, granite countertops, pantry storage, and a gas range; the primary en suite has been reconfigured to create an enviable bathroom with double sinks and a walk-in closet; and many other investments including a new roof and gutters (2018), garage roof and gutters (2020), new motorized driveway gate (2020), all new HVAC (2020), exterior paint (2021), and brand new washer and dryer (2024). And this isn't even an exhaustive list! You'll be hard pressed to find a better maintained property. The surrounding Joffre neighborhood is celebrated for its walkability, proximity to the University of Memphis, and easy navigation to the rest of the city.
