Thoughtfully renovated in 2022, this home blends French café charm with modern comfort — high ceilings, luxurious wood flooring, marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a built-in wine rack set the scene for effortless entertaining. In-unit laundry adds everyday convenience, while updated electrical, HVAC, and plumbing mean major systems are already taken care of. Step outside to a large, private backyard — perfect for gardening, gatherings, or simply soaking in the Bywater breeze — plus a rare find in the neighborhood: OFF-STREET PARKING. A Ring doorbell offers added peace of mind. Location is everything, and this home delivers. You're just moments from Bywater's iconic historic architecture and colorful shotgun houses, world-class outdoor dining and wine bars, the lush greenery and river views of Crescent Park, and the beloved "Rusty Rainbow" — the neighborhood's whimsical, art-covered pedestrian bridge.
