This fully renovated 1920s era Craftsman Style Bungalow is the bee’s knees! Historic and bespoke details & Louisiana charm make this expansive property – historic cottage, 1200hsf garage apartment, NOLA style brick courtyard & 3 car detached garage with ample storage -- on iconic brick-paved Marye Street a once-in-a-generation home purchase opportunity. You'll have over 3,400 heated square feet of living space!
Enter into the arched doorway & be charmed by the sun porch with stained glass; open French doors to the living area featuring gas fireplace & 10-ft ceilings & expand the communal space. It’s the cat’s meow! Two spacious light-filled bedrooms, a large walk-in closet & two full baths (one cleverly combined with a large laundry area & partitionable toilet/sink for guest use) adjoin the living area. The entire cottage – except for bathrooms & kitchen – are floored with 100-year-old gleaming hardwood planks, some in artful geometric patterns.
French doors between living/dining/kitchen allow rooms ultimate flexibility – close and open them to create custom living & entertainment spaces. The chef’s kitchen is a dream with custom floor-to-ceiling hard rock maple cabinetry, infrared warmers, a 6-burner gas cooktop, a prep sink & double ovens. The amount of available storage is awe-inspiring. The sink side features 40-inch countertops, & the entire space is classy, creative, & colorful. Truly spiffy!
The dining area adjoins the kitchen & French doors with transoms allow views of the living area & New Orleans style brick courtyard & detached garage apartment. The apartment was built in 1992 & is really swell! It’s an open-concept style with kitchen, living/dining area, 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath, large closets & income-producing potential. Or extend your living space & use it as a guest suite that allows maximum privacy and convenience for your guests.
