About this home

This Mid Century Modern Fixer Upper built in 1956 is prime for Renovation. Contemporary Style has an open floor plan, 4 Bedrooms, 2 Bath plus an additional office. Carport was converted to an apartment with a full bath, now used for storage. All need updating but this is a great opportunity to live in one of the oldest, most sought after neighborhoods in town! University Acres is off Highland Road, on the LSU bus line and adjacent to Bayou Duplantier and as such is a haven for wildlife. It has curving, hilly streets shaded by 100 year old Live Oak trees and is perfect for walking, biking & running, bird watching and for children and parents (and grandchildren and grandparents) to enjoy Leeward Dr neighborhood park. Welcome Home!
