Description
A Historic Treasure! This is ONE of the five remaining Register houses on Seal Avenue (which is the only street and block in Pass Christian, other than Scenic Drive, that has been designated by the National Register of Historic Places.) Now, it is available for purchase and ready for a new owner to continue to preserve and update for today's lifestyle. The main house is structurally unchanged and has original rough mill sawn old growth cypress that clads the exterior of the house, many original windows and french doors, some with original hand rolled window panes. The front porch has been enclosed, to create a charming sunroom; and there has been an addition of an art studio that is perfect for a third bedroom. The entire house has a NEWER and WORKING CENTRAL HEAT AND AIR SYSTEM, even though window units still appear. There is an Interesting mix of wood and tile flooring throughout, 2 vintage bathrooms, a spacious living room with fireplace and built in bookcases, and a generous dining room with period lighting. Mature plantings surround the property, so the house has truly been a hidden gem! There is a stone patio area that connects the kitchen and spacious master bedroom which would create a magical New Orleans style courtyard. On the north side, driveway parking, single garage, or room for a small pool. Truly a charming early circa 1900 cottage on the oldest street in the Pass, originally called Hog's Alley. A rare opportunity to be able to restore such a property, that has withstood the test of time and enjoy all Pass Christian can offer. Location is superb, short walk to coffee shop and restaurants. Appointment ONLY.
