What's special

Fully fenced backyardPaver patioWhite cabinetryStorage shedKitchen features granite countertopsBar seating for four

This sweet Metairie cottage packs a lot of life into every square foot. Ideally situated between Airline Drive and W. Metairie Avenue and just minutes from the interstate, grab groceries at Rouses Market or dinner at That's Amore Pizzeria, both just around the corner. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath home lives bigger than its footprint thanks to a versatile bonus room with a private entrance, great as a home office, guest suite, or flex space. The kitchen features granite countertops, white cabinetry, and bar seating for four. Hardwood floors run through the main living areas. Step outside to a fully fenced backyard with a paver patio and storage shed, ready for weekends outdoors. Recent updates include a new water heater, and properly supported plumbing lines, thanks to convenient pre-inspections paid for by the seller. Move-in ready and full of character, this one checks a lot of boxes.
