Welcome home to this beautiful brick ranch in Colonial Acres where the charm starts at the covered front porch and carries out to a private, fenced backyard where a 12x16 stained deck sits under a cedar pergola with cafe lights. Inside, hardwood floors run through every room, crown molding tops the main living spaces, and the open living and dining room leads right out to the deck. The kitchen keeps white cabinetry, subway tile and a stainless sink, and the range, microwave and dishwasher all stay. Three bedrooms sit on one level, with a terracotta accent wall in the primary, board and batten in the second and a brick accent wall in the third. There are two full baths, one with its original butter yellow tile and a cast iron tub, the other tiled in black with a separate walk in shower. Outside, a long side drive, a carport, detached garage and storage building. Passive income potential, over a level lawn with mature shade trees and a wood privacy fence. Schedule your showing today.
Colonial Acres, located between East Parkway and I-240, is a residential and mid-century Memphis neighborhood with ranch-style streetscapes and a leafy, park-adjacent feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Park Avenue and Getwell Road corridor, where low-slung storefronts, local eateries, and everyday services set a steady, lived-in rhythm. Housing leans toward brick one-stories and tidy lots, with curving blocks that soften traffic and add a suburban cadence inside the city. The edge of the area ties into the green expanse of Audubon Park and the Memphis Botanic Garden for long walks and open lawns. Nearby anchors like the Dixon Gallery & Gardens and Theatre Memphis add a cultural counterpoint to the quiet blocks. Errands and dining cluster along Park and Poplar, keeping the geography practical without changing the calm tone.
