About This Home
Absolutely Charming Cottage in Covington’s Coveted West 20s!
This storybook cottage sits on a generous 60’ x 140’ corner lot, just minutes from downtown Covington and all its wonderful shops, restaurants, and festivals. The spacious backyard offers plenty of room to add a pool or expand the home.
Step inside from the inviting front porch with swing into a warm and welcoming living room featuring one of three fireplaces shared between the living room, dining room, and primary bedroom. Beautiful original pine floors and soaring 11.5-foot ceilings fill the home with charm and character.
The layout includes two bedrooms and two and a half baths. The primary suite is located just off the living room with its own full bath. The second bedroom sits off the dining room, great for guests or a home office. Behind the dining area, the kitchen opens to a large family room with a half bath and utility room—washer and dryer included.
Out back, enjoy a spacious deck overlooking the lovely yard and a workshop with heating and A/C, providing additional flexible square footage for hobbies or storage. Other highlights include a newer metal roof, fresh interior paint, and new door screens.
This home offers timeless Southern charm in one of Covington’s most convenient and desirable neighborhoods — the West Twenties.
