A Mid-City gem, this 3bd/2.5ba home has tons of character with a large den, spacious rooms with original hardwoods, en-suite bathrooms, laundry room with washer/dryer hookups, quaint backyard area, and off street parking with covered carport. Totally redone in 2005, AE flood zone, and only 2 year old roof! All this sits in the vibrant corridor of Mid-City adjacent to Banks Street, with highlights like Mid City Pizza, Bub’s NOLA, and Banks Street Bar just down the block. A great find in a great neighborhood!
