Envision it - driving yourself home down a street lined with mature trees and driving up to your completely updated and renovated true Acadian style home sitting on .38 acres in southern Louisiana. You dont have an HOA so you can park your boat at your house. You dont have a fence because you dont want to block the view of your spacious backyard with trees! Trees IN the city! Youre minutes from the Oil Center and minutes to I-10/I-49. You have the best of both worlds - a southern getaway in the city. Driving up feels like home...then you walk up to the expansive front porch. You do what youre supposed to do on front porches in Louisiana - drink sweet tea and visit with your neighbors. And then you walk inside - this is what quality is supposed to feel like in this price range. What quality FEELS like in this price range - heart of pine antique floors on skids, quartzite, designer fixtures, solid doors, Hunt Slonem and Schumacher wallpaper, Emtek hardware, floor to ceiling brick fireplace, natural light pouring in through the plantation shutters, a true dream. The floor plan is functional and offers plenty of options - formal dining room, formal living room/den, main living room, two office spaces (or an office and a she-she space off of the primary bedroom), open concept chefs kitchen with oversized island, breakfast area/keeping room space, separate butler storage area, and more closet storage than youd need. Primary bedroom is on the first level with three bedrooms (and two full bathrooms!) upstairs. Need an additional office or living space? There is a whole separate nearly 500 sq ft apartment outside. Need extra parking? Driveway is deep with a circle driveway in front of the home. Dont miss the half bathroom in the garage! Things to ease your worries: all four HVACs have been replaced during ownership (three in main home, mini split in garage apartment). If you know the market, you have to see this one to appreciate the quality!
