Quaint Garden District Cottage that is so hard to come by. Sooo hard to find a home in GD for this price in really nice condition. Feel the ambiance of New Orleans in this small private rear courtyard.Home has original wood floors in excellent condtion throughout the entire home, high ceilings, crown,and built in glass front cabinets almost in every room. We sold this adorable home to this lady in 1998 and she has done everything to improve and preserve its integrity and charm. Some rewiring done recently and new electric panel in Oct 2024. Roof is older and has been factored into the pricing on the home. Home has two old coal burning fireplace fronts, one in bedroom and one in diningroom where gas logs have been added. Bath has been remodeled with a claw foot tub and new pedestal sink. Front porch and landscaping is so desirable. New drainage system added. Estate Sale and is being sold in AS IS condition. You are going to LOVE this one.
