Beautifully renovated in 2021-- and as close to UMMC as you can get! This attractive single-family home underwent a complete do-over five years ago and received an entirely new kitchen and bathroom with new cabinets, quartz countertops, and porcelain tile flooring. The appliances are new stainless steel. All plumbing fixtures and faucets were replaced. However, the home's original wood flooring from the 1930's has been carefully refinished to preserve its rich patina and lend additional warmth and charm to the home. The entire house, inside and out, was freshly painted; there is even a 5 year old roof. The attached covered parking for two cars is a much-desired amenity, as is the charming front porch. Perhaps best of all, you can leave your car at home because you will only be steps away from Fondren's renowned restaurants and entertainment venues. This house is currently serving as an AirBnB and furnishings are negotiable.
