Property Description

Classic Broadmoor Charm with Space, Character & an Outstanding Location! Offered for the first time in decades, this beautifully maintained home has been lovingly cared for by only two owners since it was built in 1938. Blending timeless architectural details with thoughtful updates, this 1,861sf residence is ready for its next chapter. Fresh paint and new flooring throughtout provide a crisp, inviting feel while preserving the home's original character. You'll find graceful archways, French doors, decorative ceilings, built-in features, three spacious bedrooms, a comfortable living area, formal dining room, cozy breakfast nook, and an oversized utility-mud room that offers exceptional flexibility for an office. The primary ensuite includes a stall shower with accessible grips. The guest bedrooms share a hall bath which showcases ceramic tile, a classic clawfoot tub, and spray shower, adding to the home's vintage appeal. A pull-down attic staircase leads to an expansive floored attic complete with an uncommon feature of a half bath offering abundant storage or exciting possibilities for future use, subject to a buyer's verification of suitability for their intended purpose. Step outside to a generous deck overlooking the backyard, with both steps and a ramp providing easy access. Covered parking in front of the garage adds everyday convenience and protection from the elements. Located directly across from the tennis courts at A.C. Steere Park, you'll enjoy convenient access to recreation, walking trails, the Right To Play playground, and nearby schools. The location also offers easy access to downtown Shreveport, Barksdale Air Force Base, shopping, dining, the YMCA, Centenary College, LSUS, healthcare, and many other local destinations. Rich in history, full of character, and move-in ready, this Broadmoor classic offers a rare opportunity to own a home that has been cherished for decades. Book your appointment today!
