About this House

For the first time ever, this extraordinary property—spanning an entire half block and 5 full city lots—is being offered for sale. Tucked beneath the canopy of one of Covington’s legendary oak trees (the very one featured on the Covington Bicentennial Poster), this historic gem offers a once-in-a-lifetime chance to own a piece of the city's story. The home itself dates back to the early 1900s and carries the timeless character of its era, seamlessly expanded in the 1960s to provide additional space and comfort. With its vintage charm and endless potential, it stands ready to be reimagined or restored to its full historic glory. Outside, you’ll find a private pool, open green space across the expansive lots, and the kind of mature trees and serene atmosphere that only comes with generations of rooted history. Whether you're seeking a landmark property to preserve, a stunning site for future development, or a one-of-a-kind estate to call your own—this is your moment.
Opportunities like this are incredibly rare. Don’t miss your chance to steward a part of Covington’s legacy.

    "Don’t trust the judicial system. St.Tammany parish is all about that money honey! Property taxes are ridiculously outrageous! It seems after hurricane Katrina, a lot changed. New people, new attitudes, new accents, and covington grew into a concrete jungle. I live in the north rural part of Covington. It was a quiet town, but it seemed as if everyone knew on another or a family member etc. Parents: the schools are ridiculous now. They do not teach cursive writing in school anymore... I suggest homeschooling your children or sending them to a private school. "
