Description
Welcome to this charming 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath cottage in the heart of Metairie, where classic character meets thoughtful updates. Step inside to beautiful hardwood floors, fresh warm neutral paint completed in 2026, and a comfortable layout filled with natural light from windows replaced in 2021. The kitchen offers granite countertops and a new gas range/oven with griddle, while the tankless hot water heater adds modern efficiency.
Outside, the home continues to impress with beautiful landscaping in both the front and backyard, along with a large wood-decked patio perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The property also includes a spacious 19’ x 14’ carport and a 32’ x 14’ detached storage area that houses the laundry room and half bathroom, offering great functionality and extra space. Gutters were replaced in 2019, adding to the home’s list of practical updates. Great opportunity to own a well-kept Metairie cottage with charm, updates, and plenty of outdoor living space!
