Nestled along the coveted, tree-lined Teche Drive near the Oil Center & Ochsners, this rare opportunity offers a traditional home framed by majestic live oaks on a spacious lot with backyard access and abundant storage. The heart of the home is the updated kitchen, featuring a cathedral ceiling, expansive island, commercial-grade stove and vent hood, refrigerator drawer, and ample cabinetry. The inviting den showcases a wood-burning brick fireplace and distinctive backlit stained-glass accents, while the elegant dining room easily accommodates large gatherings with built-ins for display. The generous primary suite includes oversized his and her closets, a tiled shower, laundry room, and dual vanities. One guest bedroom--previously two rooms--offers two closets and an ensuite bath, while the second guest bedroom shares a hall bath. Perfect for Louisiana-style entertaining, the large, covered patio boasts a full outdoor kitchen and TV cabinet, overlooking a fenced backyard with gate access for recreational vehicles. Additional features include a two-car garage with two storage rooms (one climate-controlled with a sink), a new roof, two new HVAC systems, and location in Flood Zone X with no flooding history.
