DARLING COTTAGE - GREAT LOCATION!

Darling Cottage nestled at the base of the Mississippi Levee on the River Road in Port Allen.  Very desirable “Oaks Subdivision” in the city of Port Allen, which is convenient to Interstate 10, Downtown, LSU, and everything in Baton Rouge.   What a location for leisurely Walks on the Levee and the Prettiest View of Downtown there is!  There is actually a Gate in the Wood Fence that leads right into this “grassy hill” in the back yard.  And the location is just 2 blocks from “The Old Ferry Landing Levee-top Park”, has views of the Mississippi Bridge, and offers the “best seat in the house” for 4th of July fireworks.  Not to worry though, this city and location is not even near a flood zone, and actually sits on a bit of a “ridge”. A Pretty Front Porch gives the home an Acadian Cottage flair and Nice Curb Appeal.  There is a Very Spacious Living Room with Vaulted Ceiling, Ceramic Tile Flooring, and a Wood-Burning Fireplace encased in Brick from floor to ceiling.  This entire home has Hard Flooring – as Ceramic Tile and Laminate Wood.  Adjacent to the living room is the Dining Area that leads to the newly renovated kitchen and Den Addition. The addition / renovation, that included a New Family Room, also enlarged the kitchen and created a Nice Size Pantry and Laundry Area.  Gleaming White Cabinets, Wood Laminate flooring, and butter-colored walls make this a Bright and Pretty Kitchen.  There is a Gas Range / Oven, Hood Vent, Dishwasher, Disposal, and Refrigerator that remains too.  Above the Double Sink is a window with great views of the patio, back yard, and levee.  The Family Room, located just off the kitchen, would make a nice formal dining area if a person’s taste preferred. The Spacious Master Suite has French Doors to the back patio and a separate bath with Jetted Tub and large Walk-In Closet.  On the opposite end of the hall are the other two Bedrooms that are nice with good closet space.  The Hall Bath serves these two bedrooms and guests. A Large Covered Patio is the perfect place for just relaxing, entertaining, or outdoor cooking.  Two separate Storage Buildings house all the yard equipment and tools.  The roomy back yard is enclosed by Wood Fencing and has a gate leading right up to the levee.  Recent replacements in the past 5 years are the Roof and the Central Air & Heat. Typically the homes move really quickly in “The Oaks” so if you have questions or wish a private showing, call soon!  While the Seller elects to convey the property in As Is Condition, without warranty by seller or right of redhibition to the buyer, this does not circumvent a buyer in a contract’s rights to inspections.
