In the heart of Old Metairie, this refined single-story residence blends classic architecture with a warm, inviting interior—just a short distance from Metairie Road and Pontiff Playground.
Natural light moves effortlessly through the home, highlighting rich wood flooring and thoughtfully curated spaces. A fireplace anchors the formal living room, which flows with ease into the dining area, creating an elegant setting for everyday living and entertaining.
The kitchen is both functional and polished, featuring granite surfaces, stainless steel appliances, and an adjoining breakfast area that opens to a generously scaled den with a striking 11-foot tray ceiling and second fireplace.
Privately positioned, the primary suite offers a serene escape with elevated ceilings and French doors that open to a secluded courtyard for quiet mornings or evening relaxation.
