New Orleans Real Estate News: December 2010

THIS HOME HAS BEEN SOLD!  FOR A CURRENT LIST OF AVAILABLE PROPERTIES, PLEASE VISIT WEST BANK LIVING

New on the market, we've got a fantastic home in the Woodland West subdivision in Harvey LA for sale.

 

Impeccably maintained, with two living areas, a private master suite and a fantastic backyard, this home is not only attractive but affordable as well at only $169,900.

 

What does 2309 S. Friendship have to offer?

In addition to the 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths (wait until you see the guest bath!) there is a formal living/dining room with wood floors, a spacious den complete with brick accent wall and wet bar and a galley kitchen complete with island breakfast bar and bay window. 

Decorator paint colors say "welcome" from the minute you walk into the tiled entry foyer and the little things haven't been forgotten here.  There is crown molding in every room, recessed lighting above the bar and pendant lighting to set off the island.  A custom tile backsplash above the cooktop adds a bit of whimsy and color to the sunny kitchen.

Through the sliders, you'll find a spacious covered patio that overlooks the beautifully landscaped back yard, with one corner shaded by a mature live oak tree.  Tucked away in the corner is a 2 year old storage shed to hide away your treasures or even use as a potting shed.

 

Woodland West

The Woodland West subdivision is centrally located in Harvey LA, on the West Bank of New Orleans with easy access to the main arteries off of Lapalco Blvd. and just minutes from the Crescent City Connection and downtown NOLA.  Within Woodland West, you'll find a public elementary school, a community swim club (memberships available) and several churches.  Just on the outskirts of the subdivision is a public high school and the local fire station.  Within a couple of miles there are restaurants, pharmacies, shopping and more.
