Rare find on Blackshear Avenue. Located on a very prestigious street in East Hill that is lined with new multi-million dollars waterfront homes – some of the non-water front homes are also million-dollar estates. The street has many heritage oaks and the landscaping is beautiful - a favorite walking street. This brick home is solid 50’s construction and situated on a large 90’ x 125’ lot and has water views throughout the home. Both the living and family rooms have large windows grouped together for amazing views and lots of natural light for the home. The formal dining room is off the living room with access to the kitchen. The original hardwood floors have recently been refinished. The large eat-in kitchen has an eat-in area with an island. The family room features a large wood burning fireplace and has access to the backyard. There are two bedrooms and full bath to the left of the foyer area with a door that can close off that area. Behind the kitchen are two more bedrooms, full bath and laundry. It also has a door that closes off this area for privacy. Currently, this area is used as the master bedroom and an office area. The office features water views. Downstairs you will find a large 11’ x 13’ storage area and a one car garage. The stairs to the garage lead up to the kitchen area. The backyard is great for entertaining and features a large flat area with a stone wall that runs along the back of the lot providing privacy for outdoor enjoyment. This is a great opportunity to have one of the best locations in East Hill and put your finishing touches and ideas in place. It has a very good floor plan that could easily be opened up further to add to the spaciousness of the home. It’s hard to over improve a house on Blackshear. One of the great features of East Hill is Bayview Park - a short walk away with tennis courts, play ground, pavilions, docks, boat launch to the Bayou and a community center. Our famous beaches are just minutes away. You’ll love it here.
