Description
Take a step back in time, and drive down Arlington Road to find a three-story, brick plantation home named ''Arlington''. Built in 1829, this majestic home has been updated with the original details preserved. Arlington sits on 1.37 acres and has a grand front lawn with plush landscaping. As you enter the front double doors and walk onto the original Italian flagstone, you will notice how special this home is with the original mahogany staircase to your right and a parlor off to your left. Beyond the staircase is an updated bathroom and bedroom. The kitchen has been updated just enough with modern amenities, such as Viking appliances, an island with a built-in wine rack, and a farmhouse sink.There is an abundance of cabinet space, made from original cypress wood that was once the back porch. The focal point of the kitchen is the large fireplace (largest of the nine original fireplaces), perched between two windows on a tall brick wall. Up the staircase to the second floor, you will find four additional bedrooms, each with its own unique charm, and two full bathrooms. The third floor was once used as a school room and has an additional exterior staircase that allowed the children to enter and exit the school room without entering the house. Below the home is a cellar believed to hold perishable items to keep them cool. Rumor has it that the cellar has a secret passageway, created in Civil War times, that lead to the bayous. This exquisite home has an abundance of natural light and many sets of double doors opening to the numerous balconies. The balconies offer stunning views of the beautifully manicure landscape. A retired brick cistern now centers the lovely, brick patio at the back of the house. This home is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Arlington is located in the town of Washington, known for its quaint and historic charm with a two-hour drive to New Orleans. Make an appointment to view this home so you can own your own piece of history! To see more photos and information on Arlington, go to: https://386arlington.pgtb.me/Kgl0qW
