Welcome to The Laurels, 40 condominium homes with prices ranging from $200,000 to $500,000, at Central and Highland near the University of Memphis and convenient to Downtown and East Memphis.

Laurels Living…
It's a condominium lifestyle, and the living is easy - easy to choose your home and just as easy to leave it, and your cares, behind. So whether you live a life on the move, or just love the things that move you, The Laurels will be at the center of your lifestyle.

Involved in your hobbies or your favorite charity? The central location and secure garage entry will allow you the mobility to easi
ly get in and out and on your way.

Inspired to learn more, do more and see more? Your favorite theatre is as close as your favorite green space. So you can picnic in the park, take in a film or view the latest collection instead of watering the lawn.

Rooted to the city, your family and friends? Five wonderfully open floor plans host just enough room for you and your books, or enough room for the whole family. But when the sun sets, your beautifully landscaped terrace will beckon you to have company.

Is mobile your middle name? Whether your work requires you to travel, or traveling is the only work in which you like to engage, lock it and leave it all behind in confidence.

Come Inside…
Homes for those who like the vitality of city living, but the comfort of an established neighborhood, The Laurels offers the best of both. New one, two and three bedroom condominiums are finished with designer interiors, so you can entertain in your classically styled abode or lounge in the modern home you've always fancied.

Step Outside…
Leave your work in your home office and bookmark the next chapter for later. When you're living at The Laurels, your outdoor time is just as inviting as your indoor time.

The Design…
Just four floors, the beautiful new brick construction with stone accents complements the stately Tudor Revivals and Craftsman bungalows that pepper the surrounding neighborhood. Garage entrances off Central Avenue allow easy in-and-out from your covered parking below. Keyed-access elevators with generator backup provide for a quick, reliable trip from the car to the kitchen. And all of the private balconies, with ceiling fans humming, overlook the lush landscaping of the terrace below.

Site Plan…
The Laurels site is perfectly situated on a large lot on beautiful Central Avenue. A brick and wrought-iron fence with a handsome mid-rise building adorning the center of the property form an exclusive gated community — your oasis, in this thriving area of town. Mature trees shade the walk around the property while fresh, new landscaping adds color and vibrancy. So take it all in, and leave the maintenance to someone else.

Terrace…
At times a sun-filled courtyard, at others a shady getaway or elegantly lit evening gathering spot. Always an inviting outdoor extension of your home, this community area boasts a crystalline pool with an abundance of dining, grilling and just-plain-relaxing areas for you and your friends.

For Guests…
Knowing how important entertaining is to your lifestyle, The Laurels has set aside designated parking for your guests or deliveries. So tell your friends, your housekeeper or your interior designer to park in the guest parking places right on the property where they'll be just a few short steps from a secured entrance.

Garage…
A private-access, gated entrance and covered parking are right in sight of your elevator, so quick trips in and out can be just that.

The Location…
When you come home to The Laurels, you arrive at a haven in the heart of one of Memphis' most desirable areas. Shaded by a canopy of trees and bounded by wide streets, The Laurels offers you the best of both worlds - luxurious new construction in a beautiful, established location. An area of neighborhoods where your friends stroll by and where kids have lemonade stands. An area where classically styled homes have steadily increased in value over the years.

And at The Laurels, you're central to everything that Memphis has to offer. Close to restaurants, shopping and entertainment, near healthcare and worship. From the moment you leave the grounds at The Laurels, you're just about 15 minutes from everything this town has to offer - from world-class performances at the Germantown Performing Arts Center to the art galleries of downtown's South Main district and all points in between.

History…
In the early 1900s, D.P. Prescott grew sweet potatoes on the land that is now home to the University District. From these humble beginnings, the area evolved into a streetcar suburb near a thriving university then named West Tennessee State Normal School, and which is now the University of Memphis. Today, the neighborhood is primarily residential, with classic Craftsman bungalows sharing street-front with stately Tudor Revivals.

What’s Nearby…
What's in the backyard of your new home? Just the city's largest university, an outstanding public library, exhilarating community theatre and enough green space to let you walk, golf or smell the roses at your leisure. Looking for someplace in particular?
