4071 Fairmont | New Orleans Home SOLD

They don't make them like this anymore! Built in 1937, this Gentilly Terrace cottage sits on high ground and offers everything you love about old-school architecture and appeal.
The craftsmanship is the reason this home stands the test of time! You will be charmed by the glass doorknobs, coved ceilings, plaster walls, arched doorways, picture railings, and everything else in between! Original hardwood floors are throughout except in the kitchen. (And they may exist under that flooring!) The lavender guest bathroom is a rarity and definitely one of the more coveted colors too! Don't miss the original built-in ironing board in the former laundry room turned craft area. (Washer/dryer hookups remain in that room in case you want to move them.) Closets are cedar lined as well.
Kitchen has original cabinets & gas stove. All appliances shall remain. The dining room has a gorgeous vintage light fixture that adds to the overall beauty of this cottage! Primary suite is tucked away and includes a private bathroom (with original tiles) and a walk-in closet. Storage is not an issue in this home! The backyard is a gardener's paradise that has been lovingly maintained. Detached garage has water and electrical run to it too.
Modern updates include a 2-year old roof and HVAC system. Transferrable flood policy in an X flood zone. This location is convenient for enjoying time at the lake, zipping over to City Park, or hopping on the interstate. Come see what Gentilly Terrace is all about!
