Oh! Where do we begin? This is a three story Victorian Square Home in the heart of Spanish Town Area that is just loaded with charm, character, history and so many of its architectural features.

This is a three story Victorian Square Home in the heart of Spanish Town Area that is just loaded with charm, character, history and so many of its architectural features. Originally built for a LSU professor when the campus was in the downtown area. So many know this home as the IM Causey home that the Causey family occupied for over 6 decades. Our sellers purchased the home in 1998 and began the renovation taking it down to the studs out. N 8th has its fireplaces with original mantles, gorgeous pocket doors, and transoms. It has a new master suite area with large walk in closet and new master bath. You feel like you are bathing in the trees with a beautiful view of the designed rear yard. The additional third floor is partially finished and consist of 945 sq ft(bonus room) that could be finished out for just about anything that your heart desires. There is also a separate 704 sq ft guest house over 704 storage area that could be converted into a garage with no problem. The front and rear porches are 591 sq ft which are just perfect for entertaining and enjoying our La. weather. I cannot say enough about the care and love that this home has had from its current owners. So fun to be able to walk to all Downtown activities and events. This property does fall under the Opportunity Zone.rating. Visit gnozone.org for more of the details. Great opportunity!
