Tucked away on a 15,800+ sq ft corner lot and shaded by venerable Oaks, this exquisite Victorian frame cottage with handsome Georgian doorframe is truly a hidden historic treasure! Priced below assessed value, the opportunity is yours to make this rare one-story estate on a triple lot your own. Originally built for a sugar refiner, records date the home back to 1884. The structure was first constructed as a shotgun fronting Valence. The entrance was subsequently relocated to Perrier, and the once-gallery was converted into a foyer that unites the whole home. Live and entertain on one level with a gracious foyer, formal living and dining spaces, an efficient and well-appointed kitchen and a den with floor to ceiling waxed cypress paneling which conceals a wet bar and large storage cupboards. Three generous bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms and ample closet space complete the main residence. An attached studio with ensuite bath adds privacy for guests. Architectural details include 14' ceilings with crown molding, original wood and herringbone brick flooring, bay window, woodburning fireplace with exquisite antique marble mantle and an abundance of built-in bookcases - a true reader's delight! Natural cypress windows and French doors bring the outside in, as the front porches overlook the beautiful pool surrounded by lush landscape, and rear porches overlook an elegant parterre rose garden. Fabulous grounds surround the entire home with an in-ground chlorine pool and mature landscaping. Opportunity for off-street parking for 2+cars. Flood zone X. Electrical was inspected and brought up to code prior to listing. Schedule a Private Showing
