This 1,912 sq. ft. stone ranch sits on a generous 0.42-acre lot in the Rugby South area of Frayser. Built in 1938, the 3-bedroom, 1-bath home features a detached garage and a spacious stone porch. Recent mechanical updates include electrical work and a new gas water heater. With its classic character and ample outdoor space, this property offers significant potential to make it your own. Conveniently located near local transit and major roadways.
Hollywood-Hyde Park-Springdale, located between Overton Park and the Memphis Zoo, is a residential and historic Memphis neighborhood with early-20th-century bungalows and leafy, park-like blocks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Summer Avenue near the Crosstown Concourse corridor, where taquerias, produce markets, and workshop-style storefronts set a busy, everyday rhythm. Crosstown Concourse anchors local culture with galleries, a listening-room feel in its common spaces, and a steady calendar of pop-ups. Nearby, the Levitt Shell and Playhouse on the Square add live music and theater to the weeknight mix. Streetscapes lean toward brick cottages, deep porches, and mature trees, with quick turns onto Midtown’s greenways and trails.

Nice sized home on a large lot. Perfect for the investor as it has 4 BR plus another room that could be a 5th BR. Needs a bit of work, but worth the price.

R-6
Residential Single Family-6 District
The single-family residential districts are intended to accommodate one single-family detached principal dwelling unit per lot. These districts should be applied in areas where the land-use pattern is predominately single-family residential or where such a land use pattern is desired in the future. Five single-family residential districts are established-R-6 which are differentiated primarily on the basis of minimum lot area and setback requirements. New R-6 districts are generally located in an infill or redevelopment location where similar lot sizes are part of the original fabric of development. Additionally, R-6 districts should have a shared street network with and are generally located at least 500 to 1,000 ft from a CMU-1, CMU-2, CMU-3, or CBD district.
