This terrific location backing up to White Station Middle School sets the stage for this beautifully updated 3BR/2BA painted brick home. My smart and conscientious friend did a great job of making the home, which he inherited within the family, a new perfect showplace. Gleaming, newly refinished hardwood floors, a redesigned Kitchen with new appliances & countertops, one cute original bath in perfect condition and one all new bath, a great sized private yard make this a special offering!
Brenton, located between Poplar Avenue and Walnut Grove Road, is a residential and suburban Memphis neighborhood with leafy streets and mid-century ranch homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Poplar Avenue corridor near the East Parkway intersection, where local storefronts and long-running eateries set a steady, everyday rhythm. Nearby pillars such as the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art, the Memphis Zoo, and Overton Park Shell anchor the area’s cultural calendar. Blocks of brick homes and deep lawns give the streetscape a calm, established feel. Overton Park’s trails and greenspace shape daily routines, while Poplar’s small-scale retail keeps errands grounded in place.

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.
