Construction began 22 years ago in 1989 .Planned and executed by a visionary named Henry Turley, Harbor Town encompasses 110 acres with 30 of those acres set aside for parks, ponds and walking trails. Another section was set aside as a town center- which now boasts the best grocery store in Memphis , a world class 4 star boutique hotel named "the River Inn", 2 restaurants,a "no wait" doctors office, a gym, dry cleaners, pizza joint, nail bar, beauty salon, day spa, school, and me, Karen Soro,the local real estate agent .
There are 420 single family residences along with three
Condominium developments as well as apartments. Built using a European village as the model, all economic strata are well represented. There are retirees and empty nesters living in million dollar homes, there are working professionals in half million dollar homes, there are young families living in three hundred thousand dollar homes and there are young singles living in the condos . The apartments are inhabited mainly by well heeled students or people in transition. The result is a wonderful community where people know and enjoy their neighbors and their neighborhood .
If you are planning a move to Memphis you owe it to your self to discover this gem called Harbor Town before you settle in the nondescript suburban sprawl that surrounds the town.
