Property Description
Welcome to a life where every day feels like a vacation?where history, nature & comfort come together in the easiest, most effortless way. Tucked along sought-after Military Road on nearly 5 acres & just a mile from Historic Downtown Covington, this stunning 1904 Victorian isn't just a home...it's your own private retreat. Set high on a ridge w/over 540 feet of the sandy-bottom, Little Bogue Falaya River winding behind it. Picture it: Slow morning walks thru your private trails, kids splashing & laughing in the cool water on a hot Summer day, afternoons sunbathing poolside or hopping in a tube & floating the river to Historic Downtown Covington. It's the kind of lifestyle you don't expect to find so close to town & yet, Here It Is! Inside, the home blends historic charm w/updates that make everyday living feel easy. Soaring ceilings, gleaming heart-pine floors, spacious rooms & the preserved vintage details remind you of the home's 120-year story, while thoughtful renovations & additions designed & created by local craftsmen bring it comfortably into today. It's elegant w/out being fussy in all the best ways. Step outside & the magic continues. The pool & cabana?complete w/a full kitchen & bath under a brand-new roof?create the perfect setting for summer fun, birthday parties, quiet coffee mornings on the veranda, or late-night gatherings under the stars. With 5 acres, you can explore, hike, unwind, entertain or simply enjoy the peace in your own private world. And when you're ready to rejoin the buzz...Historic Downtown Covington?w/its art walks, live music, farmers markets, boutiques & restaurants?is just minutes away. Close enough for convenience, yet far enough that home still feels like an escape. Never flooded, fronted by nearly 500' of iron fencing w/a private gate on Military Road & surrounded by nature & history, this is a place where HOME becomes your favorite destination.
