ABOUT THIS HOME

Step into a piece of history in this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 1-bath townhouse located in the heart of Historic Standish Place-once home to Fort Harrison's sergeants. This home blends historic charm with modern updates, featuring original wood flooring, large sun-filled windows, and a spacious kitchen completely renovated in 2019 with stylish finishes and ample workspace. Enjoy the sunroom for morning coffee or quiet reading, and consider transforming the third bedroom into a stunning primary suite. A new roof and copper gutters were installed in 2023, and the low-maintenance exterior includes a detached 2-car garage. Just a short stroll to restaurants, coffee shops, the library, and a nearby pharmacy. You're also close to parks, top-rated schools, the YMCA, Fort Harrison State Park and Golf Course, and DFAS. With easy access to major interstates, commuting is a breeze. Historic charm, thoughtful updates, and a walkable lifestyle-this unique home has it all!
