Exceptional Craftsman-Style Cottage, designed by noted local architect C.L. Hutchisson in 1922, is situated on the highly sought-after, oak-lined Bienville Avenue. A welcoming, expansive front porch sets the tone for this character-filled home, beginning with a formal living room with built-in cabinets on each side of the fireplace, and French doors leading into a spacious formal dining room with a built-in window bench seat flanked by built-in cabinets on either side. The butler’s pantry features original cabinetry and connects seamlessly to a well-appointed kitchen, complete with granite countertops, tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a built-in desk. The home offers multiple living spaces, including a den with wood-paneled walls, exposed ceiling beams, and a large wood-burning fireplace. Next to the back door is a generous laundry room adds convenience for washing clothes and a full bathroom. On the main level, there are two nicely sized bedrooms, a beautifully updated bathroom with an oversized walk-in tile shower, and an additional bathroom adjacent to the laundry room. Upstairs, there is a large bonus room currently used as a bedroom with an attached office and double door access to a covered balcony overlooking the backyard. This level also includes three additional bedrooms, a hall bathroom, and 3 walk-in closet spaces along the hallway. One of this home's main features is an extraordinarily large covered back porch—currently used as an additional living area—overlooking the patio area, pool, and landscaped backyard, creating a perfect setting for relaxing or entertaining with family and friends. There is a nice long wide driveway that has an electric security gate that leads to a detached double garage with a full bathroom, work room, and an upper-level storage area. This home truly must be seen in person to appreciate all it has to offer.
