Locals enjoy affordability and access in Balmoral
Directly outside I-240 in East Memphis, Balmoral resembles many 20th-century suburbs with its wide drives and calm atmosphere. Residents enjoy the neighborhood’s ease of access to commuting routes and suburban feel, but its affordability compared to other areas close by is the main draw. “It’s a lower price point than nearby neighborhoods like Kirby Woods,” says Max Rubenstein, a Realtor with Keller Williams and a lifelong Memphian, about Balmoral. “As markets have changed and things have shifted, that’s probably more of an entry-level price point.”
Balmoral streets feature mature trees and midcentury homes.
Balmoral’s curved drives often end in quiet cul-de-sacs.
