Set on 3.41 acres of park-like grounds shaded by mature oak & pecan trees, this 1850s center-hall home offers a rare balance of historic character and thoughtful modern living. The residence underwent an extensive renovation in 2021 by Logan Killen Interiors and Entablature, preserving original wood floors while introducing refined finishes and contemporary amenities throughout. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame unobstructed views of the surrounding landscape & private country setting.Expansive covered porches, pool w/ cabana, and barn w/ electricity and plumbing—ideal for a workshop or easily converted to a guest house—extend the living experience outdoors. The top floor offers 3 bedrooms + 1.5 baths, & a spacious, open living area & kitchen, while the bottom level boasts 3 bedrooms + 2 baths, additional living area w/ fireplace, laundry room and is plumbed for a full kitchen, offering flexibility for multigenerational living or guest accommodations.The eat-in kitchen features Kucht appliances, honed marble countertops, and generous cabinet storage, while the primary bath is finished with Waterworks fixtures, a double-ended cast-iron soaking tub, and a marble shower with heated floors (and separate walk-in closets!). In addition to 3 entrance points to the property, the land is home to mature lemon trees & blueberry & wild blackerry bushes, and has never flooded. Conveniently located just ten minutes from Abita Springs and downtown Covington, this property offers privacy, history, and enduring quality in an exceptional setting.
