Originally named 'Walnut Grove', this fine home was designed and built in 1924 for Mr and Mrs Jesse P Norfleet and was their 'summer home'. With classic proportions, fine materials, and large rooms, it was the centerpiece of their country estate, about 10 miles east of Memphis. Documents suggest extensive gardens provided a fine setting for both family life and entertaining. The home has been loved and beautifully maintained for decades by a short list of dedicated owners. It retains most of the original detailing and fine materials. In recent years, the kitchen, casual dining, and large laundry have been renovated. And a pool has been added in the private rear yard. The sellers have made significant upgrades including a new roof, new bathrooms, and some new HVAC equipment. This is, truly, the best of both worlds: a fine historic home retaining its classic beauty while also having been updated for today's lifestyles. Unquestionably, it is the perfect balance of comfort and elegance.
