About this home
Experience the charm, character, and walkable lifestyle of Old Covington in this beautifully preserved Creole cottage, built in 1920. From its welcoming covered front porch to its original bead board walls and ceilings, this special home reflects the craftsmanship of another era while offering thoughtful modern updates for today’s living.
Inside, original hardwood floors flow through the living areas and three bedrooms. Plantation shutters, a spacious living room, large den, and separate dining room create an inviting floor plan with plenty of room to gather and entertain. The kitchen blends historic warmth with modern function, featuring custom heart-of-pine cabinetry and granite countertops. The primary bath offers a relaxing retreat with a pedestal tub and separate walk-in shower. A new air-conditioning system, spray-foam insulation, and a tankless water heater add efficiency, comfort, and everyday convenience.
A detached 330-square-foot guest house with a full bath expands the property’s possibilities. Use it as a private guest suite, mother-in-law quarters, home office, or creative studio. With the addition of a small kitchenette, it may also offer potential as a long-term apartment or short-term rental, subject to applicable zoning, permitting, and local regulations.
Outside, the large backyard provides space for gardening, entertaining, or simply enjoying a quiet afternoon. A 16-by-19-foot shed with electricity offers valuable additional storage and could also serve as a workshop, hobby space, or art studio. Best of all, downtown Covington’s restaurants, galleries, shops, festivals, and community events are just an easy walk away.
This is more than a home—it is an opportunity to enjoy the warmth, history, and unmistakable sense of place that make life in Old Covington so special....
