What's special

Clinker brick exteriorLight-filled officeHardwood floors

Haven't you heard about Lafayette Circle?! Located between Poplar and Central and next door to Chickasaw Gardens, this cozy little pocket features all the convenience, as well as the charming and magnetic spirit of Memphis's finest neighborhoods. You will absolutely adore this incredibly, carefully, and methodically updated cottage. The home's intrigue begins with the Clinker brick exterior (look it up, it's awesome!) and sincerely does not stop until you're leaving the subdivision. The hardwood floors have been restored and refinished, the bathroom remodeled and brilliantly updated, the light-filled office outfitted with bookshelves, and the kitchen reimagined, redesigned and masterfully executed. All of these upgrades were executed with intention and heart, and you will love what you see. Come take a look!
