581 W Bontemps St, Marksville, LA, 71351
About This Home
Sitting on a large corner lot of 0.70+/- Acs with two grand old live oaks providing shade to the back yard, this beautiful home has tons of potential. The 2BR 2BA, 1782 sqft brick home sports ten-foot ceilings and large bedrooms. The open layout is great for entertaining or family get togethers and with all that open space there is also the potential to enclose some of that space for a third bedroom or office if needed. In the shady, fenced in backyard is a 1BR 1BA, 576 sqft man cave/apartment/mother-in-law quarters/outdoor kitchen that could be all of those things or even a rental, Airbnb, or VRBO as there is a gate in the back yard to allow for a separate entrance. The property is adjacent to the Marksville High football field and as a bonus the current owner built a sturdy balcony/viewing platform on top of the porch of the outdoor kitchen to allow for your own private seating for the games. A Factor metal building workshop and two smaller sheds complete the backyard along with a small brick smokehouse that has a natural gas hookup. This unique property is just waiting for the right person or family. Asking price is $230,000. Licensed by the Louisiana and Mississippi Real Estate Commissions
