1926 SOUTHERN AVE

Crisp painted brick and a covered front porch set the tone for this updated side-by-side duplex, with two 1-bedroom, 1-bath units. Inside the vacant unit at 1928 (630 sq. ft.), the living room and kitchen share one open space. A sleek linear fireplace in a floor-to-ceiling tile surround anchors the room, and recessed lighting and wood-look tile floors run throughout. The kitchen stays clean and simple - white shaker cabinetry, granite countertops and stainless appliances including a dishwasher. The bath has a glass-enclosed walk-in shower, tile wainscoting, a dark vanity and a stacked washer and dryer tucked neatly into the space. The bedroom has plenty of closet space. Unit 1926 (730 sq. ft.) has a similar layout and is currently leased through November, so a buyer gets rental income right away along with a ready-to-go unit. It works well for an investor or an owner-occupant looking in Memphis.
