Description
Beautiful 3BR/3BA gem in Southaven! Walking in, you're greeted by an open-concept downstairs that feels bright, spacious, and perfect for entertaining. Updated bathrooms add a modern touch, while the backyard patio is ideal for hosting or just unwinding. The workshop offers tons of extra space for projects or storage, and the 2-car garage adds everyday convenience. Conveniently located just a minute or two from Hwy 51 and I-55, making it an ideal spot for easy access to Southaven and Memphis.
Adding to its charm, this home was once the childhood residence of famed author John Grisham--with his and his brothers' initials still visible in the front driveway. Well-maintained and move-in ready, this home offers the space, updates, character, and story buyers are looking for.
