918 Ridgelake Drive, Metairie, LA 70001

If you’ve been waiting for the right first home or looking to downsize without the fixer-upper headache, 918 Ridgelake is it. This 3-bed, 2-bath Old Metairie cottage has been tastefully refurbished with charm, function, and location all in one. Just under 1,500 sq ft on a 50x120 lot, it’s move-in ready with warm hardwoods, natural light, and a layout that makes sense. The backyard is great for a pup, a garden, or simply unwinding. Steps from coffee shops, groceries, and dining—and minutes to downtown NOLA or the CBD—you’ll also be front and center for the St. Paddy’s Parade. Bonus: Did I mention the garage is wired for electrical and has plumbing. More than a starter home, this is classic Metairie charm with zero​​‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌‌​ compromise.
