Property Description

This is a golden opportunity to acquire a storied St.Tammany property. Cottage is in need of both cosmetic renovating and structural repairs. This historic cottage was the original "Bootlegger's" property for which Bootlegger Road was named. This is an amazing piece of St. Tammany history! The 10 acre parcel is a lovely mix of open pasture and land which is heavily treed with majestic ancient oaks that have reigned for 350-400 years. Absolutely stunning! For the equestrian enthusiast, the open pasture land provides space for horses to roam and graze, and there is plenty of room for a future barn. Or...perfectly configured for the addition of a second main home and keep the cottage as your oh-so-charming guest house! The cottage, which dates to c. 1900, was originally a double shotgun style, and features a center hall with a free standing fireplace, with a lovely sunroom addition on one side and bedrooms on the other. The country kitchen is an ample size with plenty of room to gather. The home features original wood flooring (owner believes wood flooring is under the bedroom carpets), wood detailed ceilings, and an abundance of windows to enjoy the spectacular views. A wrap-around veranda beckons you to sit and enjoy the peaceful, serene surroundings. Flood Zone C per mls flood map. Conveniently located just minutes from Covington and all it has to offer!
