Brick ranch and traditional-style homes comprise much of the housing stock, generally selling between $175,000 and $350,000.Shelby Farms Park's many activities, including trout fishing
May Park is located just across the street from Keswick Sulgrave and has several soccer fields for youth sports. Plus, Holmes Park sits less than a mile from the neighborhood with a playground and a walking path across a creek. However, the most popular park in the area is Shelby Farms Park, one of the largest urban parks in the country at 4,500 acres. The park has over 40 miles of walking trails, a community garden and even a herd of buffalo, which have lived there since 1989. Fishing is popular in the park at several lakes and ponds. “All of our lakes are stocked by the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency,” says Todd Adams, a Realtor with Keller Williams and third-generation Memphian. “In the early spring, they put trout in our freshwater lakes. They do die by June, so they want you to catch them and take them out. So you’ve got kids of all ages fishing, and they’re really pretty to catch.”Choice of Memphis Shelby County Schools, or highly rated private options
The Memphis Shelby County Schools district serves Keswick Sulgrave. Students are zoned to Balmoral-Ridgeway Elementary, which receives a C-plus grade from Niche.

The all-boys Memphis University School and the all-girls Hutchison School are nearby, with each receiving an A-plus grade.Events within the neighborhood and in Downtown
The Sulgrave Neighborhood Association is a voluntary organization for residents of Keswick Sulgrave. In addition to talks from police and community leaders, the association helps put on an Independence Day celebration and smaller-scale events like bake sales. Residents also often head downtown to enjoy Memphis’ happenings, such as festivals celebrating the city’s music and barbecue. The Memphis Grizzlies NBA team plays at FedExForum, which also hosts concerts. “We live in East Memphis, but we go to the Grizzlies games, we go to the University of Memphis Tigers sports,” Adams says. “We see concerts, shows, restaurants and events downtown.”Access to Bill Morris Parkway and I-240
Keswick Sulgrave sits roughly 18 miles from Downtown Memphis, near a pair of the city’s main routes. Bill Morris Parkway is less than a mile from the neighborhood and leads to Interstate 240, Memphis’ beltway, 3 miles away. While residents almost universally own cars, the neighborhood is relatively bikeable. Kirby Road has bike lanes on the area’s eastern edge and leads to some of East Memphis’ commercial areas. Memphis International Airport is 12 miles away and has nonstop flights to 35 destinations within the U.S., plus seasonal service to Cancun.Grocery shopping and dining across the street in Kirby Gate
The Kirby Gate shopping center is less than a mile south of Keswick Sulgrave. A Kroger anchors the strip and is the nearest spot for groceries, while restaurants include Big Bill’s Bar-Be-Que, which serves Memphis-style pork, brisket and ribs. Closer to 2 miles the other way, Poplar Avenue is the main commercial corridor through East Memphis. A Target is the spot for essentials, and eateries populate the shopping centers.
