About this House

Open House Sunday, June 24, 2018 2pm-4pm. Truly one of a kind home in Oakleigh Garden District! Completely redesigned and rebuilt by Daly Baumhower in 2008, classic Greek Revival architecture was achieved by adding a new addition over an existing house (with slab foundation). At that time, new wiring, plumbing, kitchen, baths...the works...were done! A very large kitchen has center island, granite and stainless with Shaker cabinets. All baths have granite vanity surfaces. The Mbath has jetted tub, glass shower and double vanities. The bedrooms are split...the 18X17 Master is upstairs with 17X13 den while 3 bedrooms are downstairs. An upstairs veranda provides excellent vistas of the Oakleigh Mansion complex. The flat and level first floor could easily accommodate those who need walker or wheelchair assistance. Back yard is fenced and termite bond will transfer to new owner. Zoned heating and cooling. Alarm system. All electric, except gas range and HWH, levelized power billing only $170/mo.
