For those who won't settle for "cookie-cutter," this exceptional French manor style home offers something out of the ordinary. It sits on a fabulous lot in a very desirable section of the historic district.
A very private setting, sitting deep on the lot with shrubs flanking both sides, in a section of cul-de-sacs and backing to the bayou with no rear neighbors, but no Harvey flooding.
French door entry, classic brick flooring and metal bannister railing.
To one side is the large dining area, the brick flooring extends throughout much of the "public" spaces, French door on right leads to driveway, two doorways in the middle lead to the updated kitchen. Note the bar on the far right.
Opposite view of the dining area, showcasing the French doors across the back of the open space.
the wine bar separates the dining area from the grand main living room. Open soaring beamed ceiling, lots of glass with French doors, (fixed).
Another view with the fireplace, dining area in the background. This is a very light-filled and open floor plan.
All the glass space lets you have great views of the lavishly landscaped backyard and the bayou. French doors on the left wall lead to an additional bonus space.
French doors open onto a block-paneled bonus room, perfect as a home office or kids playroom.
Behind the wine bar & next to the dining area is the fully remodeled kitchen with a nice size pantry area and stainless appliances.
Large kitchen with granite counters and updated backsplash, recessed lighting & SS appliances. Good window space for great natural light.
