Chickasaw Gardens has luxury homes and popular amenities in Midtown
Chickasaw Gardens is named after the upscale subdivision at its heart. That section of the neighborhood features luxury homes at some of the highest price points in Memphis. The residential areas filling out the rest of the community are more standard — ranch-style homes and cottages line the suburban streets. But the entirety of the neighborhood is popular for its amenities, such as museums, country clubs and shopping districts.
Chickasaw Gardens features numerous sprawling Tudor-style homes.

Upscale homes in the community's heart, plus cottages and ranch-style
The Chickasaw Gardens subdivision is one of the most desirable in the city. “It’s one of the nicest neighborhoods in Memphis,” says Leigh Martin, a Realtor with Hobson and a lifelong Memphian. “Chickasaw Gardens is one of the highest priced per square foot in Memphis.” Home styles range from farmhouse style to Colonial Revival and French Country. Prices go from the mid-$400,000s to the upper $800,000s for a typical three- or four-bed house, while larger luxury estates can sell from $1 million to near $2 million. The subdivision also has a pricey HOA, with dues typically around $2,000 per year.
Throughout the rest of the neighborhood, brick ranch-style homes and cottages are more common. These tend to sell from the low $100,000s to the upper $300,000s. There are also a few condo complexes, with standard units going between $100,000 and $200,000.
