## Description

### Agent Description
Rare opportunity in East Memphis! Situated on the largest prime lot on the street (.88 acre), this elevated property offers exceptional potential for new construction or renovation. Built in 1903, this 4BR/1.5BA home features original hardwood floors, plaster walls and ceilings, and classic shotgun-style bungalow architecture full of historic charm. Enjoy inviting front and side porches, stunning century-old trees, and a very private setting. Home includes central HVAC, dirt basement with crawl space, and small rear carport. Generous lot size provides endless possibilities to build your dream home or restore the existing structure. Ideally located near Botanic Gardens, Dixon Art Gallery, Audubon Golf Course, and the University of Memphis. PROPERTY IS BEING SOLD AS-IS -- perfect for builders, investors, or buyers with vision seeking a premier homesite.
