Property Description
This refreshing one of a kind 101 yr old University Garden Bungalow with saltwater cocktail pool, waterfall, and tanning ledges is ready for summer fun! Join past owners by contributing to its already well kept history. The owner has kept many of the original architectural details throughout the home but has added significant improvements. The home now has 1300 square feet of ideal spatial planning by removal of a living room wall, addition of archways which combine living areas, and installation of a gas fireplace with custom wood mantel. The sunroom has served as their third bedroom and has access to a separate brick patio. The cozy kitchen has a gas range, original ceramic sink with drainboard, dishwasher, and disposal. Youll also find a hidden broom closet connected to the refrigerator. All appliances including the refrigerator, gas range with vent, dishwasher, disposal, washer, and dryer remain. There are two good sized bedrooms with spacious closets and large overhead storage cabinets. The bathroom has a newly refinished tub, original tile, large pedestal sink, and more than ample storage space. Theres a quaint laundry room/porch with shelved storage closet and views of the lushly landscaped backyard. The garden has a European feel with brick pathways lined with curved raised beds leading to and around the cocktail pool and fire pit areas, and pool room with marble bar. Youll find live oaks, a mature magnolia, Kumquat, and Meyer lemon trees. The two fountains remain along with the ornate metal/wood garden bench and barstools in the pool room. Make sure to check out the roomy attic which has the rarely found original disappearing stairs, floored storage space, and a walk-in 7 x 10 cedar closet. This home is a true gem having access to the LSU Lakes, Bet R Grocery and all the restaurants and stores at the Perkins Road Overpass area. Please leave attic stairs down. The seller will close each evening.
