About This Home
STUNNING - This remarkable residence exudes Southern elegance and offers a rare opportunity to own a truly timeless College Town home. Beautifully appointed and set on a premier corner lot, this 2-story residence blends classic architecture with modern updates, featuring a gracious brick front porch, oak floors, arched openings, and designer touches by McMillin Interiors throughout. The thoughtful floorplan includes 4 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, a custom bar, and a dedicated office, creating exceptional spaces for both everyday living and elevated entertaining. The inviting living and formal dining rooms each showcase wood-burning fireplaces and overlook the porches and brick courtyard. A fabulous custom bar opens directly to the courtyard for seamless indoor–outdoor gatherings. The chef’s kitchen features a beadboard ceiling, granite island, stainless appliances, gas cooktop with hood, and double oven. The spacious primary suite offers a private screened porch and an adjoining office with access to the backyard. The ensuite bath includes travertine finishes, double vanities, a walk-in shower, soaking tub, and a large custom closet. A second downstairs bedroom features its own ensuite bath. Upstairs, a generous den connects two private ensuite bedrooms, each with walk-in closets and beautifully updated baths. Outdoor living is exceptional with a fenced yard, lush green space, New Orleans–style brick courtyard, covered porches, and a full outdoor kitchen with sugar kettle, built-in grill, sink, and Green Egg. The seller has invested $300K+ in the last 4 years adding significant improvements, including new Jeld-Wen windows upstairs, a two-car garage with EV charging, all-new gutters and drainage, a side-entry circle drive with stone and brick wall, a new slate front walkway, and low-maintenance composite decking on porches. All in an unbeatable location—walk to Tiger Stadium, LSU Lakes, parks.
