About This Home

2022 Polk Street

This turn-of-the-century Creole cottage is full of historic character, Southern charm, and thoughtful updates. Set on a quarter-acre lot with a wide front porch, screened rear porch, and fully fenced backyard, this home offers the kind of warmth and craftsmanship that is hard to recreate today. Inside, you’ll find 11-foot ceilings, original shiplap walls, antique heart pine floors, tall windows, large wood doors, working transom windows, and custom built-ins. A Victorian-era bronze fireplace adds another layer of character, while the generous room sizes and natural light make the home feel welcoming and comfortable. The home features three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a remodeled primary bath with a clawfoot tub, subway tile, and classic finishes that suit the age and style of the home beautifully. The HVAC, metal hip roof, and exterior paint have been updated in recent years, giving buyers added comfort while preserving the home’s historic feel. Outdoor living is a major part of this property’s appeal. The front porch offers a beautiful place to enjoy the neighborhood, while the screened rear porch overlooks a spacious backyard with mature azaleas and an ornamental Japanese magnolia. There is plenty of room to garden, entertain, play, or simply enjoy the shade and privacy. A full-size attic with generous headroom also offers potential for future expansion or additional climate-controlled square footage. Historic, inviting, and full of soul, this Creole cottage is a special home with details you just do not find every day.
