Description

This delightful 1930's Bungalow in the heart of mid-city has a lot to offer! This 3 BR/2 BA home has original hardwood floors, cypress siding, doors, and windows. There are two new Goodman HVAC units and new architectural roof. Another great perk about this home is it sits on an extra large lot. It is a lot and a half. You do not want to miss out on this charming place you can call home on the LSU bus line, 10-minute walk to City Park, and 5-minute walk to Mid-City restaurants and shops.This delightful 1930's Bungalow in the heart of mid-city has a lot to offer!
