835 Avondale Street

Welcome to one of the most iconic homes in Fondren. This neoclassic architectural style includes a stately front porch with room for the whole neighborhood to gather and enjoy. The current owners renovated the home completely and maintained it to absolute perfection. A grand foyer displays a wrap around staircase. A formal sitting room with built-ins and double sided fireplace-- the living room side is wood burning and just around the corner in the cozy sunroom the fireplace has gas logs. An inviting den with floor ceiling windows also awaits. A formal dining room has ample room for a table and sideboards, plus French doors leading outside. Through arched doorways, a wet bar with ice maker and entertaining storage lined with Pacific Cloth. Renovated kitchen with island with bar seating, built in refrigerator, Viking gas range/double oven and room for a breakfast table. Off the kitchen, a built in desk, laundry closet, second dishwasher and more storage space. Upstairs, three bedrooms or could be four. (One is currently being used as a den.) Each bedroom has it's own unique feeling with identical crown moulding and ten foot ceilings, just like the downstairs. All of upstairs feels like being in a treehouse with magnificent views of the backyard and the street below - all airy and light. The primary suite is particularly large with a walk in shower, dual vanity, and built in drawers in the dressing area. One of the best features of the home is the screened in back porch with several seating areas. The porch overlooks a patio with a water feature and then an additional green space/yard area with a small pavillion. The whole property is fenced for privacy and has an electric gate leading up the driveway to the two car garage plus a electric car charging station and breezeway. Porte Cochere, French doors with period appropriate door locks and knobs, arched door ways and storage galore, there is so much to explore and appreciate. This home is the epitome of perfection as far as being a redone and a well maintained home with all of the character and charisma of an older classic.
