Property Description

A rare city gem with soaring ceilings and endless potential! Discover an exceptional opportunity to own a massive 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom home that defies typical city living. This residence is bursting with endless possibilities for the discerning buyer looking to customize their dream space. This home is just 6 minutes from Carondelet Park and sits on a corner lot across the street from St. Cecilia Catholic Church. Step inside the oversized living room and prepare to be captivated by dramatic vaulted ceilings that flood the space with abundant natural light. The room is anchored by a charming fireplace and flanked by custom built-in bookcases, creating a grand, yet inviting, atmosphere. A true luxury in this style of home is the separate, dedicated dining room, an ideal venue for hosting family dinners and elegant entertaining. The dining room flows seamlessly to the private, fully fenced backyard, which offers a coveted level yard perfect for outdoor activities. The kitchen, located just off the dining room, offers generous cabinet and counter space, ready for your vision to transform it into a modern culinary haven. Convenience is key with an updated half bath and the highly sought-after main-level laundry, just off the dining room, eliminating the chore of basement trips forever. Venture up the staircase to the second floor, where an open balcony view overlooks the stunning vaulted living room below. This level hosts all four bedrooms, including a truly rare find: an expansive primary bedroom suite. The suite features an incredible three-closet system, including a massive walk-in closet, and an updated full bathroom with a double vanity—your private oasis awaiting its finishing touches. The most unique feature of this property is the enormous, detached multi-vehicle garage in the backyard (sold as-is). This space offers unparalleled utility, whether you need a workshop, extra storage, or parking for multiple cars. With a recent fresh professional cleaning , this home is a blank canvas, perfectly positioned for your TLC and personal design touches. It’s more than a house; it’s the ready-made sanctuary you’ve been searching for.
