About This Home
Tucked away on a full acre in one of Covington's most convenient locations, this stunning home offers the perfect blend of privacy and accessibility -- just minutes from I-12, the Causeway, and charming downtown Covington. Completely gutted and rebuilt, this home lives like brand-new construction with thoughtful design and flexible spaces on every level. The first floor welcomes you with a spacious foyer -- the perfect drop zone for shoes, backpacks, and everyday life. You'll also find a private cabana with full bath, a dedicated workshop, and a large bonus space ideal for a media room, gym, or game room. The second level is the heart of the home. Bright, open living areas flow seamlessly from the living room to the kitchen and dining spaces, with a cozy breakfast area overlooking the property. The primary suite is privately tucked away, complete with its own bath, while a second bedroom offers flexibility as a nursery, office, or guest space. A convenient half bath and laundry room complete this level. Upstairs on the third floor, you'll find three additional bedrooms and 2 full bath -- perfect for family, guests, or creative space. Step outside and enjoy your own backyard retreat featuring an in-ground pool, hot tub, multiple decks for entertaining, and plenty of green space to roam. A double garage with expansive storage and a circular driveway add both function and curb appeal. Peaceful setting. Acre lot. Pool. Like-new construction. Roof 8 months old, 2 new water heaters. Minutes to everything. This one truly offers the best of both worlds.
