Description

ATTENTION RESTORERS, INVESTORS & HISTORIC HOME ENTHUSIASTS: Step back in time and imagine the
possibilities with this stately circa-1910 Colonial estate, situated on approximately 1.554 acres beneath a magnificent
canopy of century-old oak trees. Impressive Colonial columns create a commanding façade, while the home’s
remarkable architectural details offer a glimpse into the craftsmanship and grandeur of another era. Inside, the
expansive residence features 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and 8 fireplaces, many with beautiful original mantels, including a
decorative marble fireplace with gas logs. Historic details abound, including original hardwood floors, a showstopping
grand staircase with a hand-carved banister, massive pocket doors off the foyer, intricate front-porch mosaic tile, handpainted ceiling moldings, and original stained-glass windows. This property is in need of extensive renovations and is
being sold AS-IS, but its impressive scale, architectural character, gracious grounds and one-of-a-kind details provide
an extraordinary canvas for restoration. Bring your contractor, your creativity and your appreciation for homes with
history. Located in Shreveport’s Highland Historic District, this property may offer opportunities for historic preservation
tax incentives, particularly if restored for qualifying income-producing use. Buyers should independently verify
eligibility, requirements, and available State and Federal Historic Tax Credits. If these walls could talk, imagine the
stories they would tell. For the buyer with vision, this is more than a renovation—it is an opportunity to preserve a
piece of Shreveport history, restore a grand Southern residence to its former glory and write its next chapter. **New downstairs 5 Ton HVAC installed 10-2026**
