The space
You will experience the charm of the Old South at The Farmhouse Cottage, located in Memphis TN….Home of the Blues, and Graceland, the former home of Elvis Presley…

My home is in an older neighborhood of Memphis, on a residential, mid-city, semi-busy street. My place is way off the street, like in the country, a quiet, pastoral setting, my family home.
I have ample off-the-street parking, and I am within walking distance of a library, a bus stop, the Greenline biking/walking trail, various restaurants, and a shopping center with a grocery store .

I’m about 8 miles from downtown Memphis, 4 miles to Midtown.
You will feel like you are in the country.

I’ve described the arrangement as precisely as possible, and set my rate accordingly. Be sure you read about my listing.
I don’t want anyone to be here if they aren’t happy. Thank you!

THE GRACELAND COTTAGE- a separate building behind the main house, which provides complete privacy and includes a queen bed, full private bath, kitchenette which includes.. microwave, small fridge, and wifi connection.

Other things to note
During the Winter months, the Cottage can be difficult to keep warm because it is made of concrete. Many others have stayed comfortably, but if you are cold natured, keep it in mind.

I have three very friendly cats who can be irresistible to guests, who may let them inside. If you have a severe allergy to cats, you know that the space cannot have the tiniest amount of dander, so do keep that in mind. I would be sorry to lose you as a guest, but I just want to save you the discomfort. 🥰
Also, please DO NOT flush anything down the toilet, other than what it was made for, please. My house has old plumbing. That's why public restrooms have those signs everywhere.
