Description
Rare Bywater Gem with Private Parking & Oasis Courtyard! Welcome to 738 Lesseps at Dauphine in Beautiful Bywater, a turnkey dream home where early-1900s historic soul meets over a decade of meticulous, high-end luxury curation. Beneath towering 12-foot ceilings, this vibrant home boasts an seamless blend of timeless character and extensive modern updates—with simply too many premium improvements to list. The expansive, flexible floor plan features a stunning library/possible third bedroom, four sets of elegant French doors, transoms, and bespoke Ruffino custom closets. For maximum comfort and efficiency, the home is fully equipped with high-efficiency magnetic window inserts for sound-softening, a brand-new HVAC system (2023), and a whole-home Generac generator for ultimate peace of mind.
The heart of the home is a detailed chef's kitchen outfitted with custom tile flooring and a striking "Goddess Le Cuisine" tile mosaic perfectly centered above the gas stove. Step outside through new rear doors into your own private oasis: a professionally designed courtyard patio (2022) complete with a custom pergola, soothing water fountain, privacy fencing, and lush flower beds. An electric gate providing dedicated off-street parking, and the entire exterior shines with fresh paint completed in August 2026. Detailed property disclosures and floor plans are available for this absolute Bywater masterpiece. Please schedule your showing today, Call Steve at 504 258 1800
