About This Home
Nestled in a highly desirable area along the scenic Mile Branch creek and just minutes from downtown Covington, this Acadian-style home blends classic charm with comfort and convenience. Set on a tree-shaded lot just under half an acre, it offers nearly 150 feet of creek frontage—perfect for peaceful mornings or lazy afternoons spent outdoors. Step inside to warm Brazilian CHERRYWOOD FLOORS that flow throughout the OPEN LIVING SPACE. A soaring 16-foot CATHEDRAL CEILING, built-in bookshelves, and a DOUBLE-SIDED WOOD-BURNING FIREPLACE create a cozy yet spacious living room, while a HUGE PICTURE WINDOW brings the outdoors in. You can also enjoy the fireplace from the kitchen which is both beautiful and functional, and features STAINLESS STEEL APPLIANCES, SOLID SURFACE COUNTERTOPS, CROWN MOLDING, white cabinetry with glass doors, a built-in WINE RACK, a long peninsula BREAKFAST BAR, and a PANTRY. The dining room, open to the kitchen and accented with a VAULTED CEILING and wood beams, sets the stage for memorable gatherings. The primary suite is tucked away on the other side of the entry foyer for privacy and features a wood-paneled accent wall, and a spa-like bath with DUAL SINKS, a GARDEN TUB under a GLASS BLOCK WINDOW, and a large tiled shower. Upstairs are two spacious bedrooms with 9-FOOT CEILINGS and a stylish full bath. A GUEST HALF BATH sits conveniently under the stairs. The oversized utility room adjacent to the kitchen has a handy laundry sink and a countertop for folding clothes. The home invites outdoor living with a front porch perfect for morning coffee, a REAR PORCH/DECK for grilling, a side SCREENED PORCH for mosquito-free evenings, and a wide green side lawn ideal for play or relaxation beside the gurgling creek. With parks, restaurants, shops, and medical facilities all nearby, this location checks every box. Be sure to check out the MATTERPORT 3D virtual tour for a detailed walkthrough of this home!
