About This Home
As of October 2024STEP BACK IN TIME into this 1920 cottage at the foot of the Mississippi River! Located in downtown Port Allen, this quaint home was rumored to be built by ship captain stationed along the Mississippi. It has many original features including the front porch shutters, all wood flooring, large antique tub, high ceilings and original doors and hardware. The charm of this place overwhelms you as you enter through one of the sets of double doors on the expansive front porch. The front porch faces South, situated so that you never get direct sunrise or sunset. Perfect for enjoying lazy afternoons on the swing sipping coffee and listening to the ships go by. The living room and front bedroom lead you to the short hallway which contains the laundry room as well as the original bathroom. There is old cypress wainscotting on the walls of the bathroom as well as original tub and sink. The kitchen/dining/keeping area is very large and has beautiful professionally done cypress cabinetry, There is a breakfast bar covered in slab granite and a wall of pantry that continues the old cypress cabinetry. For an older home there is a surprising amount of storage. The stainless appliances are only a few years old and the roof is as well. The HVAC unit is about 2 yrs old. The master bath was added later to the home and the master bedroom has its own outside exit door. Off the kitchen, you are greeted with a cozy deck that is just right for enjoying breakfast and the back yard is bigger than you think! It accommodates a shed as well as a patio area for lounge chairs and a fire pit. It is just a short walk to the top of the levee which makes for a great walking trail. With all this historic charm and the upgrades here you would never know that Baton Rouge is literally 5 minutes away.
