About This Home
This is one of those Garden District Treasures. New roof and new primary bath off first bedroom. Fenced rear yard with shade trees galore. Home was remodeled years ago and that investor took in a portion of the front porch to have a sunroom addition. It can be used as a keeping room or a special dining room. Many options for that room with fantastic light across the front with a wall full of windows. Old pine floors throughout, newer central H&A, rear bedroom has tons of light, as well. This is such a nice location for Garden District Lovers. You can still add your touches and make this home yours forever. Walking distance to city park, dog park and a great little restaurant at Park Blvd. Easy to show. Add this one to your list.
