The Space:
This two-bedroom retreat offers three queen-size beds, making it a comfortable choice for families, groups, or business travelers. The living room invites you to unwind with cozy seating, a large TV, and a fireplace framed by tall windows that brighten the space with natural light.
One bedroom features two queen beds with fresh linens and modern décor, while the other includes a single queen bed, a decorative fireplace, and built-in shelving that highlights the home’s historic character. With two full bathrooms, everyone can enjoy plenty of comfort and privacy.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a coffee maker, microwave, kettle, stove, oven, refrigerator, and basic cooking tools, making it easy to prepare meals at home. Gather around the rustic dining table for a relaxed meal, or step outside to the property’s patio, where you can enjoy a quiet morning coffee or evening drink. An in-unit washer and dryer are also available for your convenience. Hardwood floors, warm tones, and original wood trim throughout the home create an inviting and authentic Memphis atmosphere.
Guests have full access to the private two-bedroom unit, including the living room, kitchen, dining area, bathrooms, and bedrooms reserved exclusively for your group. There is also a separate common living room in the building that is shared with other guests, and the laundry area is shared as well.
Our goal is to ensure you have a 5-star experience.
Our dedicated team is available around the clock to assist with any questions or needs you might have. We value your privacy but are always just a message or phone call away.
We`re always available to provide local recommendations, help with home amenities, or address any issues.
The home is located in the historic Midtown area of Memphis, a neighborhood known for its beautiful tree-lined streets, charming older homes, and eclectic character. You’ll find a mix of quiet residential blocks and lively spots nearby, with plenty of local restaurants, cafés, and bars just minutes away. The property is also close to Overton Park, the Memphis Zoo, and other cultural attractions that showcase the city’s unique energy.
While the area has plenty of charm and convenience, it also reflects the authentic, lived-in character of Memphis, with a mix of modern updates and historic surroundings. Guests who enjoy being near the heart of the city while experiencing the flavor of a local neighborhood will feel right at home here.
Parking is available in the courtyard behind the main house, which has about five spaces shared with other guests, and additional street parking can be found nearby.

Public transit options are also available in Midtown, though having a car or using rideshare services will give you the most flexibility to explore Memphis comfortably.
The home offers self check-in with a secure smart lock, and a unique code will be sent to you prior to arrival. Fresh linens, towels, and basic toiletries are provided, along with complimentary Wi-Fi to keep you connected throughout your stay.

About the host
Hosted by Penn Properties
I’m Adam, and I love creating comfortable spaces where people can relax and feel at home. I travel often myself and always appreciate hosts who make things easy and welcoming, so I try to do the same for my guests. I take pride in maintaining clean, peaceful places, and I’m always just a message away if you need anything during your stay.
Why they chose this property
Midtown Memphis has great character — historic homes, tree-lined streets, and a relaxed local vibe. It’s close to some of the best dining, entertainment, and arts spots in the city, but still quiet enough to feel peaceful and residential. I love that guests can enjoy the calm of a neighborhood stay while still being just minutes from everything.
What makes this property unique
This space has a warm, calming feel with soft natural light, cozy seating, and a comforting layout that just feels good to be in. It’s designed to be a relaxing after exploring the city. Guests often mention how peaceful and surprisingly private it feels, even though it’s right in the heart of Midtown.
