Completely renovated, fully upgraded, and move-in ready, 4609 Richland Avenue delivers luxury-level improvements at an attention-grabbing price point in the heart of Metairie's 70002 corridor. This is not your typical listing -- the home has been intentionally redesigned to create an open-concept living and entertaining space filled with natural light and seamless flow. The spacious living area features a wood-burning fireplace, ceiling-mounted surround sound speakers, and clean sight lines ideal for gatherings, while French doors from the primary bedroom open directly to the backyard, creating a true indoor-outdoor connection. At the center of the home is a fully renovated chef's kitchen designed for both function and style, offering a massive center island with extensive storage, floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, custom lighting, gas cooktop, and a full Thermador appliance suite rarely found in this price range. Beyond cosmetic updates, the property offers meaningful system and structural improvements including a brand new roof (January 2026), Generac whole-home generator, professionally installed French drains, and meticulously maintained mechanical systems -- providing long-term peace of mind. The garage has been transformed into a climate-controlled flex space featuring granite flooring, ample storage, and a professionally installed mini-split HVAC system, ideal for a home gym, workshop, hobby space, or conditioned storage. The private backyard offers generous green space, privacy fencing, and a pergola with bed swing, creating a relaxing outdoor retreat. Located just minutes from Lake Pontchartrain, Causeway access, schools, shopping, and dining, this property combines location, upgrades, and functionality in one compelling offering rarely replicated at this price point.
