If you’re looking for a place where you can put down roots, you might consider buying or building a home at The Vinings at Kirby Parkway.

Already 39 homebuyers have seen the wisdom of investing at The Vinings, a convenient East Memphis development located at the intersection of Kirby Parkway and Messick Road and close to all the essentials — schools, services, restaurants and shopping.

“If you’re looking to live in a convenient, low-maintenance, custom-built home in a luxury gated community, this is the place,” Kathy Hurley, RE/MAX Premier sales agent, said about The Vinings. “This friendly development offers a small-town atmosphere, yet has most every convenience a family could want nearby.”

Homes at The Vinings are built along a French Country theme and vary in price from $325K to $500K. Many homes enjoy a water view thanks to the community featuring two ponds that are stocked with bass, brim and catfish. And the development provides its own security featuring a brick fence and front gates equipped with video camera protection along with mobile phone remote access.

Current residents at The Vinings come from a variety of professional and ethnic backgrounds and diverse cultures with ages ranging from young children to retired empty nesters.

“The homes at The Vinings also have a strong neighborhood association that organizes local events as well as enforces architectural/ community covenants ensuring protection of neighborhood values and appearances,” Hurley adds. “For example, homes at The Vinings are required to have a minimum of 2,800 square feet.”

Two new homes, both professionally constructed by Michael Boyington of Sovereign Builders, LLC., one of the Mid-South’s most respected builders, are currently available at The Vinings.

One residence now awaiting its first occupants is at 6767 Messick Road and features four bedrooms plus a bonus room and three baths. Two bedrooms and two baths, including the master suite with a custom Jacuzzi and tile work, are downstairs in this 3,100-square-foot floor plan that also offers nail-down hardwood floors, nine-foot smooth ceilings upstairs and down, oil-rubbed bronze lighting package, plus a gourmet kitchen complete with a Jenn-Aire gas cooktop, double-tiered peninsula, stainless steel upgrade appliance package, granite countertops and two dishwashers.

This comfortable, all-brick family-size home offered for $324,900, features a large, wood-fenced lot with a professionally landscaped yard including a back-load garage with a back porch entry.

Also available is a new home at 6679 Old Ivy Cove offered for $329,900 which also features four bedrooms with two down, three baths, plus a bonus room. This home has a water view, a master suite that includes a custom Jacuzzi and a double-entry, walk-through shower, and a kitchen with granite countertops, an upgraded appliance package, Italian tile, oil-rubbed bronze fixtures plus a convenient front side-load garage. This home will be completed before the end of April.

Along with these two homes, there are also four lots available.
