This isn’t just a home; it is a true River Oaks original! Designed by noted architect Oscar Menzer, 491 S. Shady Grove is found on just more than an acre in the heart of Memphis. This spacious Cape Cod style home is the perfect blend of timeless charm & character with functional, livable spaces. A beautiful chef’s kitchen w/eat-in space flows to a lovely dining rm. The inviting great room w/brick flooring & wet bar opens to an amazing backyard. A sun-filled front gallery leads to a formal living rm & office, then to the spacious primary suite w/newly renovated bath+his/hers closets. Upstairs includes four bedrooms & two recently renovated bathrooms as well as a landing space perfect for kids or guests. The layout flows seamlessly from formal to casual, indoor to outdoor, and the grounds of this property are nearly as impressive as the home itself. Whether relaxing by the pool, enjoying an evening around the firepit or playing on the turf sports field, there's something for everyone!
