1511 Louise Street

Have you ever seen Louise Street in Washington Square? It’s a beautiful tree lined, cul de sac street, with darling vintage homes. Built in 1928, this three bedroom Spanish bungalow has many of the original features… Starting with the original solid wood front door with a speakeasy, so charming. Enter into the large living room with a beamed ceiling, original wall sconces and the original French mullion windows overlooking the front yard and inviting brick walkway. The home has the original wood floors throughout with the exception of the kitchen and bathroom. The living room is open to the large dining room accented by a vintage chandelier, two large matched windows view the grassy back yard. Next the kitchen, do you love vintage tile? This one is pretty cute, there’s the original tile and solid wood, ceiling height cabinetry, those French mullion windows above the kitchen sink and plenty of room to expand the cabinets or add a kitchen table or island. A laundry room with washer and dryer hookups, updated 220v electrical and built in storage leads to the back door and large backyard. There are three bedrooms, one is located to the left of the living room and has a surprisingly large walk in closet; the other two are located off of the hall to the left of the dining room- all have beautiful windows, original oak wood flooring, closets with lighting and cute little windows. The bathroom with vintage built ins is off of the main hallway. Let’s check out the backyard, fully enclosed with a locking driveway gate, it’s a large grassy yard with a fun built in fire pit behind the two car garage. There is a timed sprinkler system, front and back. First time on the market in 70 years, this home has been lovingly maintained through the years. In 2021 many of the MEP’s (mechanical, electrical, plumbing) were updated and/or replaced. A mini-split providing cooling and warmth, was added in 2021, it has a dedicated circuit, professionally installed. One level, no interior steps, so much vintage charm, maybe this will be your forever home!
