Description

Beautiful 5 bedroom, 3 bath Garden District home waiting to be restored back to its original glory. Home was damaged during hurricane Laura but has a new roof and has been completely and professionally mitigated. The heart of the home, the kitchen, was virtually untouched by damage. The kitchen was professionally designed and features beautiful hardware, Quartzite counters, a farmhouse sink, stainless steel KitchenAid appliances, cabinetry-faced dishwasher, eat-in bar, porcelain floors & an oversized pantry room. The 11.5 ft high ship-lap ceilings and much of the original hardwood floors could easily be brought back to life with some TLC. Downstairs has 2 bedrooms, each with their own baths. Upstairs has 1 bathroom and 3 bedrooms, each with nooks full of natural light. Home did not flood and is located in Flood Zone X. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of Garden District history and redesign your dream home with this amazing blank canvas. All measurements are more or less. Active contract on the home - home will remain available for showings and back-up offers.
